Today was sort of a day off from my normal schedule.
We had basketball practice this morning from 6-7:30. Too early in my opinion.
But, since I didn't have practice after school I got to go home for once!
In my time home I've finished my Ministry Practicum, my article for Advanced Biology, practiced my not very good guitar skills, and started a book!
I feel so productive!
I can just about play Treacherous by Taylor Swift on the guitar! I'm so proud of myself!

I Don't...
I don't want to believe the end is coming.
The end of seeing the same people I've been with for these past four years. The people I might as well have considered my family. People I might as well have lived with.
I know them too well for it to end.
I don't want to grow up.
I spent all of grade school wishing away my life. And now, in the blink of an eye, my childhood is over. I will face a new reality soon. My life is about to start over in some ways.
I don't want to see friendships end.
I've become too close with so many people that I can't imagine being even an hour away from some of them. I don't want to get close with new people, they won't be the same.
I don't want change to happen.
I don't like change. I never will.

2012 Recap
As I was laying in bed last night I thought of how terrific 2012 was for me. Somehow all the terrible moments just floated away and I only saw the good times flash through my mind.
2012 was the year I'd always dreamt of when I was young and thought of how high school would be...
Here's a month breakdown of the good times.
January:
-I don't really remember anything about last January actually.
February:
-I turned 17.
March:
-We won regionals in basketball.
-I bought my prom dress.
April:
-I was asked to prom.
-I had an amazing time at prom.
May:
-I made student council.
-My Junior year ended.
-Caleb and I started dating.
June:
-I spent a lot of time with Bekah.
-I was dating Caleb.
July:
-I was dating Caleb.
-I went to LiFest for the first time.
-I went to California.
August:
-I returned from California.
-I went to Chicago.
-I dated Caleb, for a little longer anyway.
-My final season of volleyball began.
-I started my first college class at CMN.
-I had senior retreat.
-My Senior year began.
September:
-I went spelunking for Advanced Biology.
-I was Homecoming Queen.
October:
-I was accepted to CUW.
-Bekah, Rae, Shannon, Sarah, and I went trick-or-treating.
November:
-I decided to play basketball.
-My sister was confirmed.
December:
-Stage One cantata started.
-I went to the Garden of Lights with Bekah.
-Christmas break started early with a snow day.
-I got to see Lucy and Owen for four days.
-I ended the year with Bekah.
Well that was 2012, a pretty fantastic year... I'll certainly miss parts of it. But other parts I'm glad are gone.

Resolutions
I'm not one who normally has New Year's resolutions, but I thought I'd give it another shot.
They aren't much, and they're rather vague actually but I think they'll be good for me to work on.
-be happy
-don't over think
-feel beautiful
-dress for myself, not others
-stop procrastinating
-work hard in everything
-pray more
