The year 2009 seemed to fly by. But none the less, it has been yet another very eventful year. It is the year that I earned my high school varsity letter in cross-country and got my varsity jacket, experienced my first high school dances including homecoming, as well as many other new and amazing experiences. Yes, there are the experiences that I am happy to leave behind, but there are also the experiences that I hope to never forget.
I was able to celebrate the New Year with a huge group of friends at my house! We watched a somewhat scary movie the last two hours of 2009, which probably sounds like a poor way to spend the hours, but it was a lot of fun. At midnight we watched the ball drop on television then we ran around my neighborhood yelling and using our noise makers, excited to be a part of the New Year celebration! It was definitely cold outside because we forgot to put on our coats, but it was hardly noticeable over the excitement in the air. Part of me is sad to leave the year behind, but I know that 2010 will be even better if I choose to make it that way.
I am happy to get a fresh start, or so it feels. I want to make 2010 a year that matters, a year that I can make a difference. I don’t want it to be just another year counting away on the clock of life; it needs to be an important year that I can remember forever.
