New Years I Guess

Alrighty, so let's talk about this year and then move on to next year's plans...

This is year has been one of the most life changing years of my life so far. That sounds epic, and it is. In the beginning of the year, I was really unhappy with how I was living life. I was shy and thought too highly of myself. My friends annoyed me, and I hated the things I was doing. I just wanted to quit. I liked so many people, and I was just being desperate secretly.

The summer I think was a turn around. I made a vow that it would be the best and that I would change. That vow: Happiness. Simple as that. I went to Europe and so many other places across the country, but coming home from that I wasn't happy. Strangely enough it was at school that I think I changed. There was that one girl that was talking to no one. Old me would have done nothing. I vowed to change, so I started talking to her. That's the difference. I willingly led a different philosophy, and I'm never going back.
Another change: I really found my love of music. I went to warped tour and found my Imagine Dragons. Every day they still inspire me to be happy and to not change who I am for someone or something else.

Then school came around. This prompted the biggest change of my life. Alexi. I love that girl to the moon, sun, stars, and back. She's brought out a side of me that I could never have hoped to find by myself. It's actually a fantastic trick of fate that it takes one person to change your outlook on life. I realize now what happy is: Loving and Free. I want to take a second to thank her because she will never know how much she has made my life important to me again.

Aside from this single wubzie of mine, there's been some changes. I've lost at least 20 lbs, made epic friends for the rest of my life, got an iPhone, displayed moments of recklessness, yada yada. Really important doe: I want to thank everyone that has come into my life. I love each and every person. From Brandon, to Derek, to David, to Jimmy. From Sonia, to Zoe, to Connor, to Alexi, to Caroline. To my parents and teachers, my life is just bliss. I can't imagine what I would be like without your influence, so thank you and I love you. You've all made me who I am.

Now for this coming year:
I want to continue this new philosophy. I want to try new things and continue new things I have started like winter guard and being spontaneous and loud. I want to be less self-conscious. I want to make a name for myself. I want to change the world. I want to be there for anyone and everyone. I want to be happy, loved, and free. Most of all, I want these things to continue for the rest of my life. This is more a life-goal list than anything.
