What a year it has been! I lost my job (still don't have a new one), moved in with my extended family (of whom I love dearly), watched the Twins make the playoffs (then lose horribly to the Yankees), watched the Florida Gators win one national title and miss out on the next, joined a bookclub, started a blog (then kind of forgot about it), and most excitingly... ran a 10-mile race and beat my goal time!! With that said, I'm glad I'm bidding farewell to 2009. Not only is a new year right around the corner, but also a new decade.
Over the past decade, I graduated from high school, started college, changed my major about five times, studied abroad in Australia for a semester, graduated from college, got a "real" job, had a couple boyfriends, lost 30+ pounds, started running, became a "runner", traveled to Paris and Amsterdam, made great new friends, lived in at least seven different apartments/houses, lost my first "real" job, lounged by the pool all summer (and had a great tan to prove it), and now I'm trying to figure out where the next decade is going to take me. If all of that happened in the past 10 years (and that's just what I can think of off the top of my head), I can't even imagine what is going to happen in the next 10.
So cheers to 2010 and to the next decade! Think of the possibilities and all of the potential that the next year holds. There's nothing like closing a door and opening a new one. You just never know what lies ahead!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

The '00s will definitely be the decade people in our generation will always look back on fondly. (Job loss or not!) We became adults in the '00s.
ReplyDeleteI think in the '10s we'll get old. Fast. Blah!
