Bests and Worsts of 2011

As the year is coming to an end, I’ve been reminiscing a lot about the year and some of the best and worst times. It’s been a difficult task because I’ve trained myself to forget about painful experiences just after I’ve told all my friends, family, and random strangers that I could…

But I’ve taken the time to sit back and list a bunch of bests and worsts. Here they are.

Best idea: starting this blog. It’s been really fun for me to write out all my angst and it even helps me to forgive those jerks.

Worst idea: joining E-harmony. Seriously, unless you’re 36 and living with a bunch of cats, this website is not for you. Stop being lazy, put on your best outfit- wear it 9 days in a row if you want to as long as the same people don’t see you in it, and get dates!! Just be confident in who you are and have a good sense of humor and guys will come flocking to you.

Biggest disappointment: That the above didn’t work.

Biggest achievement:  Learning to be the bigger person. No seriously, I gained thirty pounds.

Best goal I accomplished: Getting a new job and quitting Harkins.

Goal I didn’t accomplish: The above job wasn’t marriage.

Best date: There’s still twenty more days to have a good one…

Worst date: “You need to lose weight” need I say more?

Best kiss: pouring rain under a blanket in front of a fire. No, it really happened.

Worst kiss: Too much slobber.

Best “first”: Acting in a college play.

Worst “first”: Spitting in someone’s face for said play.

Best moment: Watching Harry at midnight with good friends.

Worst moment: Realizing that I would never read another series as good as Harry Potter.

Next year: I look forward to a lot of good things next year. Unlike last year, I’m not going to expect to be married or have kids or even be engaged or dating anyone. Next year is all about bettering myself and becoming who I want to be. And I’m starting today. Yeah, I only went to sacrament meeting today and I got Wendy’s afterwards, but baby steps. I’ll get there. We all will. So this is my recommitment to me. I’m going to get through this and ever so slowly, my unattainable ideas may just turn into attainable ones. Thanks for reading, everyone.
