2011

I felt it would be appropriate to reflect on the year 2010 and make some resolutions for 2011. So here we go! :)

2010 Reflections:
The Good:
I got accepted to BYU-I!
I received a scholarship and federal aid for BYU-I!
I met Brynn!
I graduated high school!
I won a car!
I went to Massachusetts and Rhode Island!
I completed my first semester of college, passing all of my classes!
I started dressing how I want to instead of how I think people expect me to dress!
I started smiling more and walking with my head up!
I made a few college friends!
I spent Christmas and New Years surrounded with family and friends!

Exclamation marks go to all of them for being so fantastic!

The Bad:
Hm................Holy cow. Nothing bad happened this year! I mean, the little stupid things every now and then that make you a little sad happened, but nothing big happened. 2010...You've been the best year yet!

2011 Resolutions:
1. I have this problem with people. They scare me. Correction: New people scare me. As a consequence, I don't talk to new people unless they talk to me first. Resolution-I will talk to people I don't know and make friends in Rexburg because of this. I will be friendly instead of quiet and in the shadows.

2. Another problem of mine - I get offended easily. I take what has happened in my life in the past, and I bring it to the future and put it in situations where it doesn't belong, and thus, people offend me quite often. Rather, I let people offend me often. Resolution-I will brush things off easier and not bring the past into the present. I will work on not being offended by stupid things that weren't meant in offense.

3. I like to serve, but I don't get much opportunity to serve. I don't seek it out. Resolution-I will find opportunitites to serve and help others in need.

4. I have a problem allowing others to help me. It's a pride issue I guess. Resolution-I will allow others to help me when I need the help. I will not act like I can do everything on my own.

I can't wait to see what opportunities and lessons 2011 has in store for me and those around me...Happy 2011!
