My besties and I in the world of 2012:)

I've been thinking back about how much has changed for me this last year, there have been some really hard days, and some of the best days of my life. There have been tears, and like..stomach hurting laughter. Some of the changes have been for the better..and some I think I could've done without..But without me really realizing it,have probably been really good for me. 

There have been friends that I have gotten to be closer to than I could have ever expected..and there are friends I have lost. There are new people I have met, and people that have been there for me for years.

 I love you all!! 

My friends are the best people in the world. They make me scream, laugh, cry, worry, dance and go absolutely crazy :) I dont know what life would be like without them :D I remember when I didn't have any friends..But now I have more friends then I could have ever imagined! And I love every single one of them!! :)  They make me feel so loved, and so happy :) :D <3 

And who are these amazing friends you may ask?! (or maybe you're not..I'll tell you anyways) ;)

I know that 2012 (that still sounds weird to me..) will have its good and bad times, but I have a really good feeling about it anyways:) I've got my amazing friends that are always there for me :)

So, Hello 2012! I know I should have said that on here about 17 days ago, but I was too busy saying goodbye to 2011 ;) 

I got to cross a lot of things of my bucket list, and I'm happy I got to do those new things :) From going to California for the first time to having frozen yogurt for the first time this year has been great :) 

My mom and dad have been the best, and the rest of my family have been here for me so much, from sitting with me and helping me through algebra to threatening to punch various guys.... My family is epic ;)

So thank you all for making my life wonderful :) :) <3

I'm gonna be really busy with various things this year! We are working on getting me to go to Debate Camp at Patrick Henry Collage in June! Ohmygosh. Me..In Virginia. All alone?! It'll be a whole new experience that will be both thrilling and exciting! :D That, and the fact that I am most likely going to Salem in April for Teen Pact (its on my 16th birthday!) I am also going to be doing some book club my mom told me about, and various classes that I am going to be taking for High School Credits. :) 

I am currently working at my school to get my grades up so I can possibly try and get into Patrick Henry (Oi! Its a great collage..and super tough to get into, so don't judge if I don't make it) If I do make it, I will be working on Debate, Journalism and possibly a couple of other things. 

Well, I've got things to do!

So..

TTFN!!

;D

It was soo adorable! XD But I didnt get it :(

Waiting in line....

Seriously the lines were soo long... Some of the lines were about an hour and a half :P :P It. Was. Packed. :P

This is a wave. In case you could not tell :P

There were seriously thousands of people surfing!

The sky was soo blue!! :)

We were very very busy the entire time and we didnt have much time to sit around :P From horseback riding, to disneyland our days were packed. :P 

I think my favorite day is when we drove up to a neighborhood where all the streets had horse themes, there were "horse Xing" signs everywhere, 23 miles of horse trails, people walking around with horses and multi-million dollar mansions to visit Cousin Dolores. :) She is the coolest person i have met in a looong time :) I got to ride a Quarter Horse named Zane :) I got to gait and he is sooo much smoother than the Arabian I used to ride :P After that we went and hung out at her multi-million dollar mansion..That was something like the movies :P We played with her dog, Zoe and visited with her other horse (a paint!!!) named Ura :D After that we went in her Hummer for dinner...hehehhehehehehehehe ^_^ and then....

We went to visit another horse named Cooper! He was a miniature horse and the cutest thing I have seen in a loooong time...:P :) They called him Mini Cooper!!! Eeeekkkk!!!! There were also about 20 other horses there and I gave each and every one of them a kiss and petted them :) All except for the one that tried to bite me....

after that...

we went back to her house and...

she gave us a ride in her...

Bentley Azure 2009 convertible!!!!
