As I look back on 2010 I realize that life has been good to me. I made new friends, made memories, traveled, stayed up late, made bad choices, lost myself, later found myself, accomplished things, and finally graduated college. I started my new life as a tutoring coordinator and finished all of my applications to grad school. It is an entire year of transitions, but it definitely has been a continual learning experience.
I embark into 2011 with a new blog:

Please go there. Comment. Stay in touch. As for now, I am done pretending to update this particular page. Until next time,

What I said on graduation day...
“People so seldom say I love you And then it's either too late or love goes. So when I tell you I love you, It doesn't mean I know you'll never go, Only that I wish you didn't have to.”
Sometimes you have to let go to see if there was anything worth holding on to. Still, that doesn’t make this any easier. I have put in time here and have come to find my closest friends and what can only be described as family… truly; Kato is not just some chapter in my life. It has been a legitimate home, and it has helped me grow into the woman I am today. For that, I am grateful. My three years have been some of the best and worst in my entire life.
The people that have come into my life in my time here have been lifechanging. Period.
The current flow of my day is mostly
“hey what are you up to?”
“wanna grab lunch in a few?”
“good running into you”
“come dt with me!”
“come over”
“where are you, I need a hug”
I really have taken those hugs for granted… And now, the only word I need to muster up is farewell. There will not be random 2 minute conversations in the hall, or chatting with roommates who walk through the living room, or seeing my favorite people as I grab my daily coffee. There will be that lasting bond though.
I’ve discovered my passion, faced my apathy, and have been blessed in many ways I can only begin to explain. I’ve learned lessons, stayed up late, made new friends and memories for a lifetime, lost myself, later found myself, and truly enjoyed myself. I am ready for this. It is said close one door and open another, and here I am staring the new one in the face (metaphorically speaking) and I am about to very willingly embrace it.
I have one foot in my past and one foot in the future… for the time being I just wanna live right here, right now. My mind is running a mile a minute about everything of the moment, and everything to come. I have been processing this transition for months and it continues to be difficult for me.
Things will be different. But what I’ve had here will never be forgotten. I’m just looking to my next adventure! I hope you’ll all be there to hear about it and enjoy it with me :)
With love,
Kristy
