Remember this?

This was almost ONE YEAR AGO. I wrote about all the holidays, birthdays, and experiences that would occur in this year, wishing they would hurry up and be over so my "normal" life could resume. I also write the following:
"I find myself wanting to blow off 2011, by saying things like I just want it to be over so this whole thing can be over. But I know deep down this is not the right attitude. This year will present many challenges for us, but that does not automatically have to mean that the course of the year is pre-determined (and pre-determined to be bad at that). I could get a (real) job this year, I could move to DC after all this year or at least visit..."
And you know what? 2011 ended up being one of the best years of my life to date. Seriously. And I got that job, the one I had been dreaming of. Looking back at this post has truly humbled me today. Not only because of how quickly the time really has gone by, but also for the incredible changes that have occurred in only a years time. Just goes to show how unpredictable and perfectly things can work out sometimes, when you least expect it. Sometimes you just have to have a little faith. I'm so glad I didn't blow off 2011. And I'm truly excited for 2012.
Happy Holidays everyone. Maybe your new year be filled with new and exciting adventures and experiences, too.
