Update?

So it's been forever since I've blogged. In fact, a friend just mentioned my blog, which motivated me to look at it, which motivated a blog post, so Red? This is all your fault.

2009 really did suck. It was just one bad thing after another, with a few little bright spots just to screw with my mind. I was so glad when I ushered in a new year. I'm 21 now, I've managed to figure myself out somewhat, and some awesome changes have been happening.

Like I changed schools! I left CBU mid-semester, which may or may not have been a terribly wise choice, but worked for me. I'm now at the Art Institute of California in San Bernardino, about to start working on a culinary degree! I'm hunting for a job, but that also seems to be going well, and life is just on an upswing, praise God!

I'm living off-campus. Have since this last summer. My roommates are pretty awesome, and I've got a room to myself again. I don't know. It just seems like things are set for a decent path. It's going to be a struggle, that's obvious. But it'll be a good one.

A pink bubble wish that came true

Just an hour and a half after I made my wish, I got a knock at the door. Oh, I totally had the moment of looking at it, wide eyed and thinking, "Holy crap, did it come true?" In a way, it was better. Two friends of mine, Autumn and David, were stopping off to say hey and that Autumn was heading home for the weekend. Then David hands me a rose and a bag from himself and his wife, Erica, and says happy Valentine's day.

Sometimes, friends who love you like family are better than any boy. Now I have two roses (One from my RA) and some chocolates. My daddy used to always get me something for Valentine's day, and this more than makes up for that.
