My Two Thousand and Eight

2008 was a year of many.

I experienced many of my firsts in 2008.
- I broke up with my first and only boyfriend
- I signed up to my first gym membership ever at Equinox (one of the best decisions in my life)
- I received my first bunch of flowers in the office (which were a dozen sweet pink roses)
- I was rushed into an ambulette because of a numb sensation on my whole right side
- I went to my first set of wild bachelorette parites and blind dates
- I went to Chicago as my first vacation alone with friends
- I bought my first bedroom toy but only used it once
- I ziplined through trees strung 50 feet up in the air (with a group of absolutely amazing people)
- I wrote my very first blog on love and relationship
- I was able to do 139 squats in 4 minutes
- I manuevered a speed boat going 60 mph and was also pulled on a banana boat going 60 mph
- I purchased my first road bike - my very own blue Specialized Roubaix Expert Triple
- I underwent my first surgery (on my feet) and received special treatment for being disabled
- I was drawn as a caricature

2008 was full of planned endings and exciting new beginnings. It brought back my passion for dancing. It allowed me to reconnect with good old friends. Even without a list of things to do for 2008, I did a whole lot!

Looking into 2009, there are many more things I want to do. To start my list,
I will be making healthier food choices
I will love more and eat less
I will learn to be funnier
I will document life
