Goodbye 2011. You will be missed.
Being a part of Tumblr culture on New Year’s eve seems to include a long heartfelt post about the past year and how you’ve changed and grown. I don’t have many posts that are serious in any capacity, unless science and math puns count. But I guess this seems like a good idea. Here goesss.
I think the most important thing that’s happened is that I’ve realized just how much my family means to me. Every year there are less and less times where we can all be together, but when it happens, it’s where I want to be. I think I used to take my family for granted, but I’m really starting to appreciate their unconditional love and support for me. I think they’re some of the only people I truly feel myself around.
Every day I learn more about God, and I think I’m getting better at believing things for myself, not just because it’s what I’m supposed to think. My life would honestly be terrible if I didn’t experience and put my trust God’s love for me.
I went to Quebec for this amazing music camp for for weeks alone this summer, and I definitely learned a lot about myself. I especially know for sure now that I can never stop playing cello, but I can’t only play cello for the rest of my life. I won’t go into too many details about camp, but it was really fun [ ;) ] and it was really valuable to be away from anyone I knew to figure out some stuff about myself.
what else? point form time
My brother got married
I am single and extremely happy in singleness
It’s okay to not always be happy
If I’m not happy, I should stop bottling it up- it’s okay to show emotions
Grades are not the most important thing in the world
Feeling flattered by someone’s attention is completely different than liking them back
Say yes to poutine
You need to be able to joke around, and you need to be able to be serious
I have no idea if I’ve even changed that much since this time last year, but I just hope that I keep improving as a person and in the way I treat those around me.
