Blurry Year & Photographs that Make Me Smile

So much has happened this year that I feel like it was all a blur and went so fast and I'm finally now just sitting back and taking it all in. Which is must needed, trust me.

 Things that keep me going (when the going gets a little crazy this time of year):

I feel like it's been so long since I've written that I've forgotten how to write for fun. My mind is hardwired now into MLA format and research papers, UGH. Time to rewire it for pretty words, inspiring photographs, and this dear little blog I've forgotten about. Some of my 110 in 2010 list is going to be crossed off in a minute, but I think I'm going to change my goals for next year to be 21 before 21, only because I can make more realistic goals and actually have the chance to cross them off. This years list was amazing, but a little too big for my britches. 

Now to look up pictures of wondrous things and listen to my new favorite Pandora station (Mumford & Sons PLUS! Florence + the Machine= SO good!) Au revoir until the next time I rediscover this my loves. XO.

P.S. All A's and B's in my classes this semester equals one more crossed off my list! Yay!

Happy Snow Day!

 

I steal most of my pictures from here. How cute is this little snow-couple?!

    Oh my gosh you guys, it's actually going to snow tomorrow. REAL LIVE SNOW! (compared to that fake stuff at Celebration)Now, granted, I am in no way excited to be delivering flowers in it and driving around on yucky ice, but still. It's going to snow! And I can build snow-people and take pretty snow pictures and it'll be so sparkly out! Anyway, just thought I'd tell ya'll because it hardly ever snows here in mid-Georgia. Have a lovely snow day! XOXO.

Make way 2009: Twenty Ten is on your tail!

   Twenty Oh Nine was a big year for me, however cliche that sounds. In February my boyfriend of two and a half years and I broke up. In March I turned the big One-Eight. May rolled around and I started dating Hunter and graduated high school with Honors. The summer was full of firsts, like finally getting my driving license! Once Fall was here, I was enrolled at university and diving headfirst into college. Four classes and much procrastination later, I came up with straight A's. (Applaud here!) I worked my tail off at the flower shop doing deliveries and trying to make enough money to fund my less than swanky lifestyle. And now, it's already halfway through Winter Break, can you believe it? My new laptop and Grand Am are just two of the highlights of this vacation. But tomorrow night? Tomorrow night is New Year's Eve already. When I look back I realize that this year flew by me. Proof of this? Just look at my status updates from Facebook:

   My point is, this year was so exciting. So many things occurred and I was put into tons of new, weird situations. It definitely feels like Oh Nine was a learning experience, to say the least. Through it all, I've managed to come out on top and become a better person.
   What will Twenty Ten hold for me? I do not know, but whatever is in store will be worth it. I'm already planning ahead for the new year: five college courses, Spring Break, Hunter's Graduation, Maymester courses, work work work, the summer trip to Boulder, Sophomore year in August. I'll probably be busier than ever, but 2009 has prepared me for whatever comes my way. Here's to a fabulous new year! XOXO.

And to All a Good Night!

Merry Christmas!

  I may not be updating for a few days, so I'd like to wish everyone a very merry holiday, whichever you celebrate: Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Christmas, Yule! All night I've been tracking Santa, and now that we've given cookies to him and even our trusty gate guards, I am headed to bed. Tomorrow I'm spending time with my family and opening presents, and Saturday I'm headed down to Florida to spend my vacation (and see that most adorable boyfriend I have for the first time in almost six months!) I've planned a holiday get-together at my house on the 29th, while Mister Hunter is out of town. On New Year's eve he'll be back from his Phish concert, and we'll gallivant around. I may or may not be dragging along this brick of a laptop, so posts will either be done on another computer or postponed until the 7th when I am back to my home sweet home. It's going to be so lovely to not have any deliveries but still be getting paid because of past deliveries the next couple weeks. I'm gonna feel so rich! Tonight however, (er, this morning now I guess) I shall be going to sleep so I can be fresh faced and cheerful in the morning to open presents. Ham and latkes in the afternoon will be our special treat! Happy Holidays to all, and to all a good night!

Happy Happy Happy Winter Break!

Winter Break is hereee. 

I think I should sing a song. 

Fa La La La Laaaa.

  I hope you enjoyed that haiku celebrating the end of my first semester as a college kid and the beginning of my Winter Break. I know I sure did! XOXO.
