dear friends,
I decided this past year to write for myself on a new blog. I decided not to share it with everyone, because I wasn't sure if I wanted all of my friends and family to know about it. If you would like to read where I have been writing lately you can go here. Right now I am participating in NaBloPoMo and 30 Days of Truth. Come on over and leave a comment :)

The New Year's Meme 2009 Edition
1. What did you do in 2009 that you’d never done before?
- Went on a cruise
- Directed a summer camp!
- Went Parasailing
- Went crab fishing
Last year I didn't make a new year's resolution. People never keep them in anyway. This year I decided to make a Vision Board which you can view here.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
There were definitely a quite a few babies born this year, but none that were extremely close to me.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
Although people close to me had family and friends die, no one close to me did.
5. What countries did you visit?
Belize, Mexico, Caymen Islands, Honduras and the US of A.
6. What would you like to have in 2010 that you lacked in 2009?
I think what I want most is for things to be less... up-and-down. I'm not saying that I'm seeking "balance" or something, because I think I've come to the point where I just don't believe such a thing is achievable. I think that we do the best we can, and that "balance" is not really possible if one is doing lots of things - something will have to give. BUT. I do think that not being over the moon and then dramatically in the depths of despair would be positive.
7. What dates from 2009 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
June 14-August 21: Summer at RABC
March 7th: the day I got my tattoo
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Surviving directing RABC for the summer!

I think my biggest failure was not staying true to my heart. Enough said.

Not really. I did discover I was lactose intolerant though!
11. What was the best thing you bought?
I am trying to decide between my Macbook and my iPhone....oh wait since I paid completely for my iPhone myself, then that will be it!
12. Whose behavior merited celebration?
The staff at camp this past summer. Everyone was so incredible and behaved well!
13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
There are only a few people who have "made me appalled or depressed" but that is in the past. It's a new year.
14. Where did most of your money go?
To an evil credit card company. Also rent.
15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Going to camp, being at camp. Going on the cruise, coming home from the cruise. MJ coming home!
