2006

alright, the clock is ticking, and 2006 is coming to an end.

i finally had plans for new years, but this morning when i woke up, i felt super sick. i basically slept the day away, migrating from sofa to bed, bed to sofa. i have been struggling to stay awake this late, but i think i might make it.

before i go any further, i must say that my year was longer than your guys'. seriously. i started 2006 in tokyo, japan, where they are 16 hours ahead... i began the year before you guys. however, i am ending it in california. so, my year has been 16 hours longer than all of yours. so, i think that is why i am so tired :)

so, what did i do with my extra 16 hours this year???

well, this year has been huge! SO much has happened, and so much has changed. i am so grateful to God for all He has done this year, and i am so excited to see what next year holds. a lot of growing went on this year... not necessarily physically though.... actually, i think i have finally hit 5'7", so i guess i grew that way :) i'm not going to go in to detail because i could go on and on, but i hope you get the point.

i have enjoyed all my times with friends and family this year, and i look forward to more of them this next year.

blessings to all your new year, and with 10 minutes to go until midnight, i am going to go find the tape so i can tape my eyes open.

so, happy new year from the big kid :)
