2012 has been pretty badass, and as that ball drops I'd like to reflect on just how awesome this year has been.
1. Graduated from college. Something I take for granted sometimes because not everyone is as lucky to have the chances I've gotten. But ya, undergrad is over and that's scary.
2. Started grad school. Hands down the best choice I ever made was going to Emory to get my mph. I'm learning the coolest, most useful skills and it's really been a worthwhile investment.
3. Made new friends. Upon graduating I was really sad because I was leaving behind the bestest friends a girl could ever have, and not a day goes by where I don't miss them. But there's this saying "make new friends and keep the old, one is silver and the other's gold." I didn't think it was possible but I've had even more amazing people come into my life, and all it took was being myself.

4. Lived the single life. I've been flying solo for a while, but 2012 is one of the first years that I've actually been unattached for any significant period of time and truly taken advantage of it. It's amazing all the adventures you can have (online dating anyone?) as well as all the money you save not having to buy someone Christmas or birthday presents!
5. Started a business (and a blog). While said blog may be marginally more successful than my Stella and Dot side gig, at least I can say I tried?
6. Moved to Atlanta. Never in a million years would I ever have imagined that I'd have the balls to move so far from home in order to pursue a career/education. This coming from the kid who cried every day when her mom dropped her off at school (in my defense I was 7 and we had just move to Hawaii). I don't know how long I will be here, but I'm open to the mystery that's the future and am just enjoying the ride.
I have a feeling 2013 is going to be even more legendary.
