end of a year

there's only a couple of days left of the year 2009 and i honestly can't believe how fast it went by. i'm kind of sad that it's ending. even though this year was hectic, i can honestly say that i have grown up a lot and learned a lot more about myself this year then any other year. i completed my first year of college and celebrated my one year anniversery working at wal-greens. i can't even count how many concerts/shows i went to, but they were all great and each one was special to me in their own way. i'm happy that this year mitchell and i became such great friends. we don't always get along but he is definitely my best friend and having him in life helped me grow up and get some life experiences that i never thought would happen to me. i'm also happy that on christmas i got the best gift ever, a puppy! he's adorable. it's barely been a week since i've had him but he is so precious to me and puts me in the best mood. i've also realized how important my friends and family are to me. and that know matter what happens, good or bad, the people who truly care will be the for you no matter what. i'm very sad that this year i had to say good-bye to my great grandma ruby. she passed away earlier this month and it was the saddest day of my life. i know it was her time and that grandparents aren't around forever but she was in my life for 20 years and out of all the people i've known who passed away she was the closet to me. i'll miss all those visits to her house in chino, her voice and her hugs<3 she was a beautiful woman and a hero to me. this year has brought many other changes for me to personal to share on here. but i couldn't let 2009 go with out looking back at a few things that meant a lot to me<3
