So long 2011...

2011 has had some shining moments and some not so shining moments, 

but all in all, it's been great.

Top 5 moments:

1. FRANCE. seriously made my life. I cannot wait to go aboard again in May.

2. San Francisco with my momma!

3. Getting closer to my momma over the course of this year. I've definitely had some lows, but she was there for me every time, and has been truly amazing in helping me handle this heart deal.

4. Service trip to El Paso.

5. so many wonderful moments with my friends. they're amazing, hands down.

but now it's time for a new year! I love this time of the year. it feels magically and perfect for a fresh start. 2012 is gonna be a good year, my friends!

goals for 2012:

1. Get my heart fixed. so far, it's going like open-heart surgery so 2012 is gonna be a big year. but this also means I have an excuse to slow down/make friends with 80 yr old ladies in the cardiac dept/eat a bunch of ice cream (cause it's totally like getting your tonsils out right?!)

2. Get Healthy. More running, more fresh/natural food, more remembering those vitamins everyday/run a 5K.

3. Have a fresh start! I want to graduate and go some place completely new where I know no one and just work and have a fabulous time.

4. Have long hair. so superficial, but I want it. no. shame.

5. No regrets

In other news, the thrifting in my hometown is seriously good.

check these out!

both for the big expensive price of 2 bucks. sometimes I really love being home.
