2008.

i know that sounds pathetic. but i really do.
i dont want it to be 2009.

you might be thinking.. why?
well.. its just that 2008 was such a good year. i mean there were definitely some downs, but there were a lot of ups too.

ups:

• Michael Phelps won 8 gold medals at the Bejing Olympics
• CIT at camp
• Went to State Cup
• Traveled quite a bit
• Got my cell phone
• Made incredible friends and became even better friends with my current ones
• Became captian of the JV soccer team
• Started College
• Maintained a 4.0 GPA
• Became more outgoing
• Turned 17
• There were plenty of other things as well..

downs:

• My grandpa died..
• Got into situations that weren't fun to be in
• Still didn't get my license
• You know what.. I think those really might have been the only big unfortunate things that year..

You see what I mean?! It was a GREAT year. I just don't really want to let it go.

But on the bright side of this year:

• I will be a JC at camp this year :)
• Hopefully I will get my license
• More college classes and I will start my senior year of highschool in the fall
• I'm sure that I will be making more friends, and hopefully become better friends with certain people
• Already I have learned a lot of stuff
• I will be turning 18. A legal adult. kinda scary to me actually..
• I have already started to become more outgoing
• And I am positive that there are going to be many, many more great things that will happen this year. I can't wait to see what.
