I will be welcoming 2011 with some of the most amazing people I know. New friends who this year have taught me the true meaning of happiness, friendship and there are no words I can say to them that will summarise it.
To my old friends who are still in my life. No matter if it's been 19 years of friendship, 15, 7 or less each of you mean something to me and I haven't been able to shake you yet. For standing by me I'm thankful.
This year has not been without tears and sadness but has been awoken to the beauty and love and the ever growing moments of life that amaze me every single day. I've marked off every single new years resolution from 2010 part one - to go swimming in a white dress. I guess that will have to be my 2011 one now.
I've been able to travel overseas to see my family who I love beyond measure and miss them everyday. Despite the health concerns with my grandmother at the moment I wish I was able to be there - living so far away easily brings tears to me when I think too much about it.
To the memories and photo's I have from my travels this year will forever be a photograph in my mind - including all the people i've met, the clothes I've brought and the growth in me as a person.
To graduating my graphic design course and no longer studying in Australia makes me see things from an adult perspective, good buy Peter Pan it's time I grow up (though not completely). To the friendship's I've made through the two years out of school. Will.I.AM = who was there for me when I had a mental breakdown taking a week off tafe and making me talk about what was going on initially helping me see the brighter side of things. I was in a terrible dark place so thank you.
Leigh = who supplied me with all the music I could ever need and the conversations that made tafe seem not so strict with John :P
To the one boy that i'm crazy about. I don't think there is another one of you. I've never met anyone quite like you or been with anyone before you that makes me feel so normal and alive. I'm never going to change you, I never want to, you can choose to do that on your own. You're the one I could grow to love and really love as long as you don't break my heart in the process, I'll try and do the same.
I've been thinking about what next year is going to bring and I've already decided on a few things;
1. Read more books.
Not just in my genre but in others, expand, learn and disappear into them
2. Travel more
Out of Sydney. Go and see Shion more, go camping because I feel like it. Go to the gold coast again, or down to melbourne - even New Zealand
3. Get a job
Apply from the 4th of January to everywhere and anywhere I need to start saving
4. Save money for Europe
To see my family and travel with Emma, Jess and maybe Frankie
5. Write more
Now that I'm not studying, I'm going to commit to ONE story and I do mean one. I have to pick one and start and finish it!
6. When I have no inspiration draw!
I suck and I'm not going to become some amazing drawer but I want to improve a bit at least, it will help with my graphic design
7. Friends
Make time for them, see them as much as possible with a camera at hand to record memories
8. Boyfriend
Just be in his life is enough, despite the good and bad and the end outcome
9. Design more
Everything, posters, logos, manipulations, banners, icons, etc.
10. Go swimming in a white dress
From my 2010 new years resolutions
My only hope is that 2011 is going to be as eventful and memorable as 2010 had shaped out to be. With friendships that will last another year and adventures that I'll be able to look back on and have it being the time of my life.
Thank you to everyone in my life. Happy and safe New Years to you all <3
