Happy New Year

Happy New Year!

I thought I'd wish those of you in the future a Happy New Year. For those of us on the west coast of the States, we still have another two hours left in 2009. It's hard to take in how fast time goes.

For those of you who are wondering, NaNoWriMo went well. I passed the word goal of 50,000 by a little over 2,000 words. It was hard, and trust me, there were seveal times I thought I would die, but in the end I pulled through.

As for my sister, things are going well for her and her new hubby. She misses us no doubt about it, but I know we miss her as well. It's nice having a big brother. It can be hard when you are the only girl in the family who enjoys video games and war movies, so having a brother is the best, because what I didn't have, is now a part of me.

Although life has been great, there has been a moment of sorrow. My heart is with my brother in Christ, David, who met with Jesus on December 26, 2009 at 12:15 PM. We all miss him very much, but knowing he is now at home with God brings much comfort.

Okay...now for my 'New Year's Resolutions'. I never really got the whole idea of setting a goal for the new year. In the past my goal was just to survive the year, but since it's a new decade, I can probably try to make a goal or two.

1. Finish my book
2. Complete the 10th grade with straight A's. (I do this like every year, B's are not an option)
3. Read one book a week for the next 52 weeks.
4. Cook. Yes, just learn to cook really well. I must make dinner once this year, at least!
5. Drink more water. (I just thought I should add this as a reminder to drink more water)
6. Learn to play a Taylor Swift song on my guitar
7. Get a job. I'm 16 now, and I'll be able to drive on my own soon. A job would be helpful...very helpful.
8. Move to Colorado.
9. Draw five Star Wars characters (One down...four to go)
10. Survive.

Yep...so...that's it...Happy New Year!

I'll try to keep up with the blog more, I'm just running short on time lately. I'll write soon.

Okay, seriously...frogs don't taste good, and neither does Escargot. So for some of you daring people who have a goal of try every food placed in front of you, please do not eat frogs or snails! That's just...not right.

Peace out friends,
