The last day of this year is already here! 2010 had been a wonderful year, one of the best one's in my life. Compared to 2009, which was one of the worst years in my life. Therefore I have real hopes of 2011 becoming a really good year! I'm not one to get my hope's up, in fear of dissapointment. But I see life as your choice, sure you have a certain road to walk in life, but whether you enjoy walking that road or not is completly up to you. Like a party, you have as fun as you make it, you can sit and sulk in a corner all night and no one will speak to you. Or you can decide to be social and talk to people, and you will automatically have fun!

This is what my 2010 had been about! I've been social and met lots of new people, I've got boatloads of new friends and acquaintances! I've had fun, I've been out and about. I've seen new bits of the world, learned new things in life. Opened my eyes and gotten new perspectives. Learned A LOT of lessons in life, the hard way. I'm not saying this year's been a party, no I've struggled a lot. But I kept going, because I have such wonderful friends who supported me all the way, and life turned around. I've been at the bottom this year, but the best thing is that I came out of it. I climbed my way up to reality again, and I will never go back. I'm strong enough and stubborn enough to never go back. Reality's hard, but that's life. And how would you recognize the happiest moments in life if you haven't seen the worst?

Live life, enjoy it as much as you can, laugh, cry, scream, be angry. Just LIVE your life. Don't let it pass you by because you only live once. My motto in life is "Life's to short to think about the past, move forward and learn from your experiences with no regrets.". Trust me, you don't want to sit there when you're old and wonder what you did with your life. And I'm not talking about school, or jobs. I'm talking about what people these days so easily forget, to live your life, love, respect, friendship.

Don't forget these things in your hunt for your perfect life, filled with money and power. What matters most in life is probably what you've already got, your family and friends. The people around you that you love. Start appreciating what you got! Who's always there for you when you're in need? Who can you call in the middle of the night to just talk to? That's what life's about, never forget that.

Love to you all, hope you have a wonderful New Year's eve! And I hope you'll be blessed in 2011!
