The new year. It comes by and gives us a chance to start anew. But really life doesn't start fresh on January 1st. All that plagues us remains, but on the bright side, we have learned so much in our past year that we can now apply to this next year. Really it just gives us hope for a new beginning, inspiration for a refreshed outlook.

2010 is my year. I know it will be great. College acceptances. Scholarships. 18th birthday. Graduation. Parties. Summer. COLLEGE. Freedom. Life. And then it'll be 2011.
