"A woman's life can really be a succession of lives, each revolving around some emotionally compelling situation or challenge, and each marked off by some intense experience."
-Wallis Simpson
Christmas came and left without so much as the bat of an eyelash and I find myself in a very similar position as I was last year: sitting in a dark bedroom, typing my thoughts away on my laptop. Now that my resolutions have been said and done, my plans have been made for ringing in the New Year, and I've said and hoped that this year will be different, the truth is that asking a new year to be different than the last isn't so difficult.
I think about where I was last year (enamored and confused about Mr. Gay-or-European) who turned out to be a nice distraction. I was miserable and frustrated with the world. In 2011, as big of a flop as it was (in terms of my Sophomore year) I met some great people, let some others go and hell I FINALLY got to see Switchfoot in concert! All I can say is that maybe if I get the chance to look back on next year with different eyes, I can see that this is the start of something (or the end) but as long as I see change.
