Looking back, I remember celebrating 2010 in a suite in Lousville, excited about what the world would offer me.
the result? an EPIC year.
2010 in Bullet-points
January
* short trip to Cali --- got into LLU Dental School
* started my final semester as a undergrad at UGA --- at least so I thought for the time being
February
* First Valentines truly happy <3
* more decisions about where to go for dental school
* didnt realize I was 6 credit hours short of graduating --- freak out session ensued.
March
* finally made my decisions about where I wanted to be the next 4 years: TUFTS
* got all my credits in order. I WOULD GRADUATE ON TIME THANK YOU JESUS!
April
* decisions about summer plans --- KOREA?
* Matthew Nam RIP ---- probably the most heartbreaking thing that has happened to me this year
May
* Graduated with a BS in Microbiology --- rang the bell and skipped under the arch <3
* Moved out of my apt ---- realized a chapter in my life was finished. became depressed
June
* First time in the motherland --- fell in love with the country
* first world cup fanpark experience --- unforgettable
* two weeks of happiness hanging out with my orientation family
July
* euphoria kept rising. intoxication with my motherland made me the happiest girl ever.
* slinged, rolled & played in special mud. found out that the year before a pinkeye epidemic broke out because of the mud.... whooops. thankfully no pinkeye for me.
* learned the art of teaching English in Korea --- result: utter exhaustion
August
* said my goodbyes to the motherland --- cried and cried
* home for a couple days catching up with friends as I watched them start undergrad/grad school without me. realized again a chapter of my life was over.
* landed in Boston. fell in love with the city all over again
September
* dental school orientation --- met so many people & was blissfully unaware at how difficult life would become
* reality slapped me in the face after the honeymoon week (orientation) was over
* hello gross anatomy: my hardest, most hated, & favorite class. yes i have a dysfunctional relationship with this class
October
* relationships put to the test --- happy ending though <3
* more misery with dental school
November
* Gross anatomy OVER. huge celebration ensued
* birthday --- big fat 23. huge depression ensued
* special visitor --- happy happy me.
* NYC trip --- I love that I live relatively close to this city & escape whenever I need a getaway
December
* finals --- first trip to study at the 24 hr MIT reading room. pretty sure there will be more to come
* home for the holidays --- happiness overload.
There you have it. I am so grateful for how amazing this year has been. I thank God that He has been so good to me even though I did not deserve it.
I started 2010 with my church family and now ending it on a quiet note chilling with my fam.
I cant wait to see what this new year will bring. Dear 2011, blow 2010 out of the water. Thanks. <3
