To sum up 2006...

So, it's been a couple of days since my last blog. As for my last entry...things are better. I mean it's 2006 now....I'm going to try to leave 2005 behind me. It was the most insane year I've ever had. To start it out...I'm going to college, which in itself is a scary thing. Then I met Brian, who little did I know at the time, would be a big insane chapter in my life. He and I dated for about three months or so. I went to Colorado for spring break, had an awesome time there with Erin and Tim, and their friends. It was while I was in Colorado, that Erin and I decided that it would be good for me to move out there, you know...spread my wings...learn a few life lessons....and believe me....there were more than a few. I got back from Spring Break, and had my birthday (I turned 19), and actually it was on my brithday that my parents found out about Brian and I, which normally wouldn't be a bad thing, but Brian had a catch....he was a client on my dad's caseload...smooth move on my part (note the sarcasm). That night, with my dad's help, we packed up my truck and the next morning I left at 5:30 am, and was on my way to Colorado.

So, here I am, on my way to a brand new start. Very optimistic by the way. This could drag on forever if I wrote every experience that I had there....so I'll sum it up....Moved in with my sister...I got a job at Starbucks....moved to a new house.....got a job at a deli....quit my job at starbucks....got a job as a bartender....quit my job at the deli....got in a car accident...moved to a new apartment....kicked out my first roommate....got a new roomate.....decided to move home...moved out of my apartment.....quit my job bartending....and moved back home. Now, keep in mind that I also dated alot of guys while I was out there....made a whole lot of mistakes....oh and I went to my first stadium baseball game. There were alot of firsts there.

It really just kind of surprises me that after being gone for 6 months, the only thing I gained, was alot of life lessons, some debt, and a dog, and I ended up right back where I started, only I'm not living with my parents anymore...I mean I'm still working at Burgerville. But, hopefully, in a couple of months or so I will be moving down to Albany....going to school...and I'll live much closer to my boyfriend :).
