Nearing the End, But Also the Beginning

Ok, first off, sorry for not writing in the past few weeks.
Life has been crazy, to say the least.
I suppose I will update you on a few things..

• I turned 20. One more year until I can go to a pub, have a beer on tap, and then eat all their corn nuts. 
• I finished school for the semester, which also meant that I graduated from BCC with my AA. 
• I registered for my first UCF class. Yep, I'm a Knight now. 
• The concept of family became much more. 

So, yea. My life has been pretty busy and a little bit insane for the past few weeks. 

But, I'm able to say that I have survived, and now I stand looking at the nearing end of 2011. 

I was talking to a friend yesterday about what we expected from 2011, what is brought, and what we expect and how we feel about 2012. 

This is what I came up with.. 

I knew 2011 would be good, but I wasn't expecting anything extraordinary. 

2011 started out ok. Nothing too special in the beginning. School was good, and I enjoyed it, but it wasn't the best semester I'd had. 

Spring Break brought the realization of my dream in life [career-wise]. 

Summer helped me figure out a few things, and as I enjoyed most of the experiences I had, I came to find out that I'm being called for bigger and better things. 

Fall semester arrived to say, "Hey! Get your butt into gear and figure out what you want to do with your life!" Or at least I thought it was telling me that. I chose my major [by default-I really didn't know what I wanted to go into specifically. I just knew business was my thing], changed my class schedule, signed up for things that I just went along with. The semester was good. I learned a lot of things about a lot of things; school, people, life, faith. I am praying I got good grades, but unfortunately I will have to wait until Tuesday to find that out.. 

Anyways, I feel like I grew a lot this semester. But it doesn't end there. Faith was renewed [and I will go into detail in another post] and love was instilled and ignited within me. 

Now as the year is ending, I look to a new year full of expectations... 

I am more than excited for 2012. 

I truly think that it is going to be a great one. 

I am starting my spring semester at UCF [I will still be at BCC, but I am a UCF student now, therefore I have to take at least one UCF class... makes sense, right? Right.], which means a new place with new people, and, I'm sort of not looking forward that much to this one....a higher level of education, which is code name for harder assignments. I'm super stoked though. 

I'm totally going to be sticking with Fusion. It's something I look forward to every week, so how can I not look forward to it for next year!?

I have a steady job that is more than fulfilling. And enjoyable! 

This summer is calling for a change in pace, but I won't yet reveal what it is. 

Next fall.. well it's rather far away. I am assuming I will still be at UCF [if not.. well.. what the heck, self?!?!], I will be turning 21 [pub time!!], and... well, I guess it means I'll have made it through another year. Well, you know.. if I make it to next fall. 

Whatever. I'm getting ahead of myself. 

What I really mean to say is that I see a lot of awesome things happening next year.

But, hey. This year still has a few fantastic weeks in it. 

So here's to living the rest of the year like it's your last days. 

What are you going to live for?
