what an effing year

i think its time to reflect on this year...boy it was a hell of a year....

started off with the best new years ever...i met josh at the party and hes one of my bestest friends now...got my first tattoo1!! then i went straight into urinetown which was a fucking blast. finished that up in feb and moved right into cats rehersal and then a night at the palace shows, and my party in march. that brought cat and the end of school. april really was just a bunch of sitting around doing nothing :P hey i finished school i took a break lol, i spent it with old friends. may brought tears and memories. neil passed away on the year anniversery of johns passing...that was intence and really hard to take. i got to go to the titanic exibit as well that month which was amazing. june starts off really shitty and ends that way. bryan went missing on the 1st (i found out on the 3rd) i went out and partyed with the best of them, one for the closing show of nemo (also bj's last show...boy i cried a lot last year ) and then there was the commencemnt party where i met Jono (one of the best things to happen to me all year) july came in just like june. Ian died on the first, i went to warped tour on the second, had the best 30 ish hours of my entire life. emma leigh gets pissed and me and hasnt talked to me since. i got back go to ians funeral and then head to camp. over the next month its just working, i met some amazing people, had some amazing adventures, harry potter came out, that was sweet. went back to work. had the most amazing week of camp. what a way to start aug. my birthday was so awesome. i got my lip pierced and my tattoo! went to bars, had my friends band over...it was just amazing. went back to work. work got hard but it was life changing. ended the summer with a few days at my second house. sept came in and back to school. i was so scared to go back but i honestly couldnt wait. i loved being in the theatre and still do. the mixer happened which was great. then tim died and i lost it. i got into this amazing school so i left mal adn started looking for a job. well that didnt go over well cus i got a cist which caused me a lot of pain. october was good. i stayed home a lot went out for halloween which was awesome. still looking for a job but im optimistic. this last month i've really spent time finding me...doing things for me...christmas was good, i went out to the bar with mummy on the 23rd and all in all im glad this year happened
