Dear 2011,
You were really not so bad.  It seems like most people want to say that you sucked and that 2012 will either be totally great or suck just as much, etc.  But you know what?  You were not so bad.  I broke up with my bf, moved into a pretty cute apartment with my sister, stayed friends with the bf and had some fun with my sister.  Got a raise at work and more responsibility, which led to me getting a new (to me) car which I think might be having some problems but that is a story for another day. 
You know what I learned this year?  That when I am myself things are okay.  I might nerd out, I might not be the life of the party, but things are good.  People are okay and not that scary, they aren't all judging me and I need to just have a good time.  
You know what I've learned from writing this post?  That I need to think about things more and maybe write about them in order to figure them out. 
New Years Resolutions:  Write more, think about things.  Cook more and pack my lunches.  Get more exercise (I have my fitness orientation scheduled at my new gym on 1/2,) live within a budget, keep in touch with my family more.  Basically chill out when I can, work hard when I have to, and journal.  I used to journal a lot and I stopped because things changed and I stopped being so self absorbed.  But maybe it's not such a bad thing to examine myself, etc. 
Anyway, this is what I'm doing on NYE.  Watching HIMYM on Netflix and having cocktails.  Wondering how I'm going to kill the next 3 hours.  I kind of want to be around other people, but I don't want to go out.  Yay.  Happy New Year!
