This Last Year in a Nutshell.

My goodness, has it really been a year? 2010 went by so quickly yet so slowly. I have been pretty lame at updating this. I finally got a new journal so most of my ranting is now put back into a book that only I can read. (or if you grab my purse and realize the jackpot you just hit of goodness.. and disturbingness.)
SO in honor of this wonderful passing of a wonderful year, I am going to give a recap of the AWESOME and some of the not so Awesome things that went down this year.

January started off super tame. I am pretty sure I spent New Years over at the Greene Sister's house doing German customs to bring in the new year. One of which was melting metal and throwing it into water to predict the future. Mine came out looking like a lily, or a duck.. I really don't remember what either meant, but it was totally neat.

Feb. Was a dreaded month. But Virginia held a S.A.D picnic. Alex Burman tried to invite missionaries to it. Courtney made a HUGE deal of how inappropriate it was that they missionaries showed up oh and how the game "That's what she said" was such a horrible game.. It was Grand. That was the day Matthew got a Cactus and named him Cheeto.
Also I went to Motorcross for the first time to see Jesse Casillas race.

MARCH!!!!!
WELL beyond always being my FAVORITE month.. March turned out to be better than anything I could've ever expected. The biggest moment of March was my golden birthday. Turning 20 on the 20th. Nothing can beat it. The day started off with me frantically cleaning. And setting up for the paint fight that was to overtake my backyard. Some friends had arrived early to help with filling balloons with paint. IT turned out way messier than intended. (Which says alot!!)After many attempts of filling balloons we opted for throwing water balloons and squirting each other with paint... It was a mercy list act of hiliarity.
Something I would so enjoy doing again. It couldn't have gotten better, except that it did. And well, it seems to me in my life, when things are going good they go great. So I had recieved a phone call while filling balloons, and on the phone was one of the few people I have known for a super long time. He was probably the best Birthday Present I could've asked for.. Heck And the fact that he was out there not knowing it was my birthday, then being there.. made it like 12093819583209483209483209483209times better. There are just some things that make or break a birthday, and this totally made it. However future birthdays may be broken because the expectation is to high for awesomeness.

April... Well i don't remember much about april.. or may, or june... or july.. Well I remember July 4th pretty well. And Parts of June. June was the big Becky fall out. Which I have come to terms with and realize that I have no desire to mend fences. I am fine with Anton, he has attempted to be cordial and friendly, but Becky has done nothing to show me that she was ever a good friend. But moving on..I am attributing it to the fact that I spent those months in a hue part with a guy that I was totally infatuated with. And that Nothing was really worth while happening. 4th of July I went out to Poway and watched Fireworks with said guy. It was lovely. So August, September... Not any Grand moments. Movie nights here and there, making new friends... Nothing Huge However, I should probably confess that I have a love for him like no other. I want to say its not one sided, but it probably is. Nothing will ever come of it, because he lives across the US and by the time I could move out there he will be back in Texas for the Airforce. It blows, but its life. Moving on....

OCTOBER!!!!! October started off with a trip to GENERAL CONFRENCE. 36 people.. 2 vans and a suburban set off from the El Cajon Stake Center in search of Spiritual Enlightenment and Utah. This trip was not an easy one (well... for everyone but me and the bishopric it was smooth sailing) but it had to be done. We had had our miracle and we needed to go. The trip cost us $80 dollars. People got sponsored in a way to go on the trip. For those who wanted to go on the trip but didn't have the money, people donated money annoynomously***. No one was denied. Once in Utah, we had the pleasant suprise of some sister missionaries who were no longer serving in the ward. Its great to see people that you love to death and that only get to visit for a while.
So after the confrence trip the month was filled with ghoulish fun. Lots of costume parties, and movie nights.

So october came and went. November brought thanksgiving, and thanksgiving brought.. well nothing but dead turkeys and stuffing..
December was a semi exciting month...
I went to Idaho and Utah for nearly 2 weeks. it was Great, I went on a group date with some super cool guys and gals in utah. It was one of the best dates I have ever been on, and it was my first GROUP date.

So new years, ended in a bit of drama (not public drama..) and Starting the year off right. With great friends, smiles, and delusional conversations that I am sure took place, but am a bit fuzzy on the details.
.... But all good things come to an end... Now for 2011...
