These are songs that really stuck with me through the new year that I'll be driving you all crazy with but...I love.
Sun been down for days
And She fights for her lifeAs she puts on her coatAnd she fights for her life on the trainShe looks at the rainAs it poursAnd she fights for her life
As she goes in a storeWith a thought she has caughtBy a threadShe pays for the breadAnd She goes...Nobody knows
Sun been down for daysA winter melody she playsThe thunder makes her contemplateShe hears a noise behind the gatePerhaps a letter with a dovePerhaps a stranger she could love
And She fights for her lifeAs she puts on her coatAnd she fights for her life on the trainShe looks at the rainAs it poursAnd she fights for her life
As she goes in a storeWith a thought she has caughtBy a threadShe pays for the breadAnd She goes...Nobody knows
And She fights for her lifeAs she puts on her coatAnd she fights for her life on the trainShe looks at the rainAs it poursAnd she fights for her lifeWhere people are pleasently strangeAnd counting the changeAnd She goes..Nobody knows. <3
So, here I'm back finally in the year 2012...wow, time's so old...of course, this is about the time where you reflect back on your year, but always...so many things happen. I'll attempt it, but I can't promise I covered everything. So..
The best things…
I was still in romance. I went snowboarding for the first time and didn't die! I filed my taxes by myself, for the first time ever. Tax returns also = Awesome. JAMMS, my favorite little yogurt shop, opened up. I voted, again. I finally traveled to the east coast and went to our nation's capitol and also placed third in the nation with my awesome partner, Danielle and technically speaking, Joe. He was our behind the scenes man. I learned just how important school was to me and after being knocked down, and push myself to showing the school just how important my education is to me. I finally came to terms with old relationships and found closer. In a sense, restarted an acquaintance...I bounced back in school with a 4.0 summer semester and ended the year passing all my classes against all odds. I found myself in art again and even a new passion in an old subject in school. I was surprised with absolutely no financial aid but then later I was awarded a scholarship later on. I bought my first car. I learned what it was like to gain another job. I got bangs. I learned what it was like to gain a great friend and a second family. I went to North Dakota to see the Garretts. I turned twenty years old. Then ended the year spending it with one of my best friends.
The not so best things…
In 2011…I was still in romance, and at the same time I was dealing with mending an old one that left my heart throbbing in heart and confusion. I was turned down to two programs I worked hard for that told me to wait due to grades. I finally understood what it was like to lose someone completely in your life. I remember what it feels like to hurt and how terrible it is to break someone's heart. I get what it’s like to have people just not understand. I lost my tooth and finished How I Met Your Mother.
Things that don’t really fit in either but still affected me…
I realize that I still have to take time for myself...I now feel how important my family and friends are to me. I get that I'm allowed to say no. I know it’s important to remember to wake up for work. I stand behind the belief that it’s important to be strong for your friends, even if you aren’t feeling it inside. I learned that you can't start a friendship until you find closer in a relationship either...You know...I even realize how important it is to keep close friends in the loop...Even if it's not for your benefit, for theirs.
Maybe I'm a little confused,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby, it a wonderful news.
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah
By the way, this is where I take the time to acknowledge friends and say...I'm sorry. For rambling, driving you nuts, throwing fits that aren't deserved, not always telling you guys everything, or even just not staying in contact. In some cases, never texting or writing back. I love you guys and you deserve more with dealing with me. Thank you for being there for me thick and thin, and in some cases, just having my back. I never want to lose that and I will always be willing to tell a guy to stop being dumb to you, unlock the door to work because you locked yourself out, pick you up, grab you food, or even just...listen. If I'm not capable, I will let you know and try to get you the best close second. (:
All in all...that sums up a pretty large chunk of my year. I have goals for the future now and ideas for the year, I don't have them written out, but I think I have a general idea on my plans...in all honesty though...I'm a little happy 2011 is over. I'm ready for 2012 and embracing it with all my being. I'm ready to be risky and jump into something crazy. (Seriously, maybe not for the better.)
This is about where I'm at right now. "SAIL, lalala, lalala."
I was going to do the day one of the challenge blog down below, but after this one...I don't really have the heart to talk about the things I hate about myself and then the things I love. I could do that for hours, but right now I'm not feeling it.
College notebook, I'm ready for the new semester. Sigh. One last song!
Would you go along with someone like me?
If you knew my story word for word?
Had all of my history?
Would you go along with someone like me?
I did before and had my share.
It didn't lead nowhere,
I would go along with someone like you.
It doesn't matter what you did,
who you were hanging with,
we could stick around and see this night through.
And we don't care about the young folks,
talkin' bout the young style.
And we don't care about the old folks,
talkin' 'bout the old style too.
And we don't care about our own folks,
talkin' 'bout our own stuff .
All we care about is talking,
talking only me and you.
Usually when things has gone this far,
people tend to disappear.
No one would surprise me unless you do.
I can tell there's something goin' on,
hours seem to disappear.
Everyone is leaving, i'm still with you.
TAY.
