I was reading through some of my old posts, and I didn't realize that I started blogger last December! It feels like much less time than that.
So what has happened to me this year? I found a great place to live with some seemingly great roommates, only to find out that sometimes living with friends is a bad idea, even when they're good friends. I packed up and moved my belongings without much help from my mommy (I'm a grown-up!). I also realized just how much of my grandmother is instilled in me. I firmly decided on the optometry career path, and thought I'd be done with school by now, but as it turns out, I'll still be taking a class in Spring (though I'll be graduating in March). I've alternately enjoyed school (Women in Film, Psychology) and loathed in (Electronic Properties of Ceramic Materials). I survived my 14th quarter at OSU. I attended graduation for the first time, for my roommate. I embarked on some culinary adventures--some failures, some successes. My family has had to deal with some hard times, both within my small 6-person family unit, and my extended family. My mommy lost her job, and got it "back" in a different capacity. My boyfriend's mom thanked me for being part of her family which was a great moment. I got a job for the first time in years and it only took the better part of a month and a half. More importantly, I enjoy my job, and am very excited to work again once I'm back for school. And to top off the year, I'm going to the Florida Keys with my second family (my almost in-laws, really) and I couldn't ask for a better Christmas gift.
Overall, I think this has been a good year. There have been some hairy times more recently, but overall it was good.
How has your 2007 been?

You've had a very eventful year. When you say "14 quarters", does it make it sound longer or shorter to you?
It sounds like a long time. But when I think back on my time at OSU, it's flown by and I can't believe I'm so close to graduating!
