Farewell 2010 - Hello 2011! :)

"Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." -Oprah Winfrey

Dear 2010,

You may not have been my most favorite year, but in the end after all that has happened you definitely treated me well. You put me through a lot more crap then any other year that's for sure, but I thank you for it. You helped me become a better, stronger person and that's all I ever wished for. I have absolutely no regrets at all. So thank you again 2010, you're definitely one to remember.

Some of the highlights of my year would have to be:

*My best friend Abby coming to visit me at the end of the summer ♥

*All the amazing things that happened to me through SMM and PoP youth groups. I thank them for helping me become stronger in my Faith and helping me meet all the amazing people that I have through both youth groups :]

*Being able to have a best friend, and now boyfriend, as amazing as Robbie. You've helped me more then ever this year, and I couldn't thank you enough for it. As I always say, you are my rock; Without you, I would've never been able to make it through everything I did this year.
You helped me stay strong when I didn't think I had the ability to. You helped me keep a smile on my face when all I wanted to do was cry and hide from the world. You helped repair my broken heart and let me know what true love is really like. You've made me stronger, happier, and more confident about myself and where I am in the world. I actually feel beautiful, inside and out. Everything I've listed are all things I could've never accomplished without you. You basically brought me back to life and I'm happier then ever!

Again, thank you. I love you more then anything in this world and I definitely can't wait to see what 2011 has in store for us :)♥♥

*CHWC - Charleston fer sure! I went to CHWC in both Tampa and Bluffton the last two summers and I must say I learned a lot about myself and grew in my faith each and every time. This year, I grew even more, but I also was able to have a smile on my face again. The people that I met and the things that I did there helped me heal from something I never thought I would. So a huge thanks to all of the people I met for putting a smile on my face and making my heart whole again ♥

*Sharing seven months with Stephen (aka Cj). Though we didn't seem to work out too well in a relationship, he was such an amazing friend to me. He played a major part in helping me become who I am right now, and I couldn't thank him more for that. It didn't end too well, but he's always got a place in my heart. I'll always be there for him and hopefully this year we will be able to start fresh and become good friends again.

*To all the people who had a huge impact on my life in 2010. Good or bad, each one of you helped me a lot.

Abby, Robbie, Kelsie, CJ, Mikey Z, the band members of Author, Creator, the guys from ZoicNation, everyone from PoP youth group, Rich, Michaela, Sandy and Daisy from SMM youth group, all my really good friends from the former Sports Day homeschool group, Danae, my amazing family, and soooo many more!
I thank you all so much for being my friend, teaching me, being there for me,

and helping me grow. I love each and every one of you! ♥

*And finally, to all of the amazing people I've met this year -You know who you are- Thank you so much for letting me be apart of your lives and keeping a smile on my faces. It means a lot to me :)
