Good bye 2007...Hello 2008

What a crazy year! I changed so much over the last year, it's crazy. So many people entered my life this year, and a lot of them left too. You come to realize that people are supposed to enter your life for a reason, they influence you, and sometimes they leave before you really want them to (or not soon enough!) but you just move on because down the road, you are going to meet someone else. Even through the tears I shed, 2007 was a pretty awesome year.

January
Turned 19 - My roommate Kesley and her boyfriend Zach came up here and had dinner with me for my birthday. It was a fun time, especially since we hadn't seen each other in three weeks.
Little Shop- I auditioned for and received the role of Mrs. Luce in the play. Greatest times during that show. I really look forward to musicals because I enjoy singing. I met a lot of talented girls and guys during the show, but unfortunately once it was over, most of us stopped talking.

February
Four letters, M-a-r-k - My relationship with Mark is something I will probably always remember and sometimes would probably like to forget all the mistakes we made together. We had our good times and our bad, but all in all, I look back on it as a growing experience. It's over, it's done, the hurt is gone.
LOST returned - Best season like, ever.

March
Aladdin Jr - My brother had the supporting role of Iago. I attended the show three or four times because it was that good.
CITA 210 - I received a 105 on the midterm and had the highest average in the class at that point. Whoever thought girls couldn't be in the computer field was WRONG

April
Performances- Finished up little shop and tore the set down on Easter Sunday.

May
MSC Graduation 2007 - Sang with the choir and said goodbye to Mark, probably forever.
Joined the Jay and Jack Community - Registered for the boards through jayandjack.com. One of the best communities I've joined.

June
AmeriCorps - I received a scholarship and a summer job totaling $3,000. I worked at the public library and organized a Summer Reading Program for Elementary children. It taught me a lot about being organized and patience with the children. I hope to do it again for Summer 08.
Metrobuzz - The Metrobuzz podcast was shown to me this month through the Jay and Jack community. I quickly fell in love with the hosts John and Colleen and since then I have made a call for nearly every show I have been able too.
Best Friends Forever - Met and became best friends with Kara. Words can't describe how awesome she is of a friend.

July
Jay and Colleen, Podcasting Power Couple - The karma switch heard round the boards. Jay and Coll have become very good friends to me although we have never met. I was having some troubles during the fall semester and they were both there for me. We began talking after the elusive Karma Switch, and I was probably one of the earliest people to figure the whole thing out and become a Jolleen supporter.

August
MoVegas - It was time to head back and start my third semester of college. While there, we had our 10,000 karma party for Colleen.

September
Macbeth - I got a lameeeeeeeeee part in the play. I had a pretty shitty time. Glad its over. If I choose to do it again, I would have talked less shit about people, but they deserved it
Andrew - We met because he was failing physics and I tried to help him. Apparently it was too late and he was beyond help because he dropped the class in November. We became really close friends until I met Billington and we stopped talking. We plan to chill again Spring 08 semester.

October
Halloween- I was a princess. I went out with Kes, Zach and Andrew. It was a kick ass time and I spent the entire month counting down to it.

November
Rome Adventure- I went to Andrews house for a weekend. We saw a movie with his friends, had a hugeee sleepover (at which I feel asleep wayyy to early), went to his gramma's house, and had an overall great time. It made me define our friendship and figure a few things out. Unfortunately we stopped talking because of someone I met after we spent the weekend together.
Billington - Where do I even start? He was two years older and lived off campus. Those were our two biggest problems. I spent a weekend with him and everything was fine. A week later I was dumped over AIM. And I was called immature...It still annoys me that I didnt really get like, a solid reason, but I look at it the same was as Mark. I learned and grew, its over stop caring.

December
Erika's Xmas Party - Was so fun. We watched Pirates 3 and ate lots of food including pizza, cookies and candy canes. There was also this strand of cRaZiNeSs that resulted from the party. Can't wait for her next party.
Christmas - I spent it with my family. I got a new camera, phone from kara, jacket and so many other awesome things.
