• Oh, Look at Me! I have a 2006 reflections entry too! (Picture heavy!!)

  January:
  Rang in the New Year with my *first ever* New Year’s kiss.
  Returned to WWU for Spring Semester, only to let it be evident it wasn’t the place for me anymore.
  Got a piercing in my ear – my industrial. Still have it, still love it.

  

  February:
  Left WWU, saying goodbye to my best friend in the entire world and the place I had called home for 1.5 years.

  

  

  Returned home, settled in, and found myself a job which I loved (and still love although I no longer work there).

  March:
  Anthony broke up with me via letter.
  Decided to apply to Purdue’s Pre-Veterinary Medicine program.
  Talked to Anthony for the first time in a long time. It wasn’t pleasant.
  Turned 20.

  April:
  Got accepted to Purdue’s Pre-Veterinary Medicine program.
  Enrolled in summer classes to kick-start my return to college.
  Dealt with trying to balance my life between what I wanted and what everyone else wanted.

  May:
  Kinda got into a long-distance relationship in a weird sort of way.
  Started my first summer class – Econ.
  Downloaded and got addicted to SilkRoad Online.
  Spent the time I should have been studying playing SRO.

  June:
  Six month anniversary of my dog’s death. Still miss you, Jim.

  

  Got a new car!!

  

  Passed Econ with a C, started my second summer class – Chemistry – with Anne.

  July:
  Found and signed my lease for my apartment.
  Went to a Bon Jovi concert with my family.

  August:
  Road trip vacation with my family: Indiana to Tennessee to Ohio to Indiana.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  Proceeded to fall down a hill in the Rocky Mountains, followed by my father, causing a joke that would last forever.

  

  Went white water rafting for the first time in my life (and hopefully not the last!).
  Saw a cow give birth.
  Moved to Lafayette to begin a whole new way of life.
  Started my first semester at Purdue.
  Tried to figure out the whole relationship thing a little bit. To no avail.

  September:
  Got Sasha.

  

  

  October:
  Stopped talking to Anthony for good.
  TINA CAME TO VISIT!!!! (Sorry I forgot before… I’m horrible, I know.)
  Thought another relationship was going to develop.
  Took 3 million pictures of Sasha.

  

  

  

  

  Went to the Purdue v. Penn State game with my Dad and Anne.

  

  

  November:
  Visited Ashley in Indy.
  Started reading too many books.
  Thought Sasha indulged in a chocolate chip cookie which resulted in a trip to the vet’s at 3 am.
  One of the best Thanksgiving ever.
  Sasha jumped into the tub when it was full of water.
  Tried to put up the Christmas tree, only to have it be taken down 2
  days later due to the fact that the cat couldn’t leave it alone.

  December:
  Went on an unsuccessful first date – but at least I got everything paid for and a kiss out of it.
  Finished my first semester at Purdue with flying colors.
  Sasha got her picture taken with Santa Claus.

  

  Went home for a little over a week for most likely the best Christmas ever.
  Sasha got spayed and front paws declawed.
  Started volunteering at the Humane Society.
  Talked to Jon after 5 months.

  ---

  Spending New Year’s eve in the comfort of my apartment alone with
  Sasha. Just gonna chill out. No drinking, no staying out late, no
  nothing really. It’s okay. Not the best, but okay.

  Here’s to 2007 – drink one for me.
