This year has seriously been the best year. I don't think that 2010 will top it, unless it works really hard to do so.

This year, I was finally able to pick myself up off the ground and get out of my stupid little rut, after basically dropping out of school. I got my shit straight, got into college, and finished my first semester with a 3.5 GPA, landing me on the Dean's List.

I started volunteering at the community theatre, and have made a lot of new friends that I feel so comfortable around. I don't feel like I need to impress them or be someone different around them, and they're slowly showing me that theatre is going to become a big part in my future. How can it not? I love it too much, and apparently, I'm good at acting.

And on top of all this, I feel my cynical attitude about love slowly slipping away. There really is someone I like, but I don't think it will turn into anything. He barely knows me...Either way, even if it doesn't, I think I'm ready to be open to falling in love, and trusting someone with my heart. Maybe it's because it's finally healed from the one thing that really tore it apart, even though that thing is still a part of my life. I'm not sure what's going on with me, but even if I say I hate love, and it may be partially true, I think I'm ready to actually LOVE again. I guess another reason is because I'm starting to realize what loneliness really is.

All in all...I wouldn't trade this year for a chance to go back and change anything. Why should I? It was ALMOST perfect. Only thing that could make it better is...well...it won't happen.
