| Hello, 2008.
A new year stares us in the face once more. 2007 came and went way too
slowly. But with 2008 dawning it's light upon us, I feel that many good
changes are soon to come. 2007 opened the door to drama, heartache, and
most importantly, maturity. As I said goodbye to 2007, I also said
goodbye to many loved ones. A beloved teacher and grandfather. As well
as that, many of us greeted the one year rememberance of a lost friend.
So much can happen in a year. Although drama beat me down and tore me
apart, I still managed to pull through. Like many others, I'm assuming,
2007 was another year to grow and mature. Life became hard, but knowing
that another year would soon shine its light upon me was motivation to
push harder. Life made me stagger. And even if I did fall, I would
immediately stand back up. I was able to grow more in a year then I
could ever imagine. Materialistic things changed, as normal, but myself
as a person and a human being changed as well. I started the new year
optimistic. Thankful that I'm still breathing, walking, talking,
living, and loving. What more can I ask for? Knowing that I'm still
alive, is enough to keep me going. Knowing that I survived another
year, gives me the need to see many more years pass. I raise my glass
to 2007, saying goodbye may be a hard thing to do, but I give thee and
happy farewell. May you be the first and last "worst year of my life."
Although, being a teenager I'm sure I will have many more bad years. I
drink to 2008. May you give the strength and knowledge to take
obstacles and make them work out for the better. Because, after all
it's just another day in the same life I've been living for the past 17
years. And the decisions I make are not dependent on the year I'm
living in. But each year that let's me grow, will help me in the future
to become a better person with the skills to make life changing
decisions.
Goals:
-Focus on school and get good enough grades to apply to Berkley and UCSD.
-Spend more time with my family.
-Appreciate the little things in life.
-Love each day.
-Smile often and brightly.

Damn
fool, happy 18th birthday. It sucks that I can't be there to spend it
with you and go partying with you and shizz. The years I've known you
have been great, even though we weren't so cool at first. I wish you
the best of luck in college, and hope that you come here soon and go to
San Fran, yo. We seriously HAVE to talk more, I don't see you enough as
it is, and plus we hardly ever get to chat. I hope you have the
greatest birthday ever, and enjoy your summer and come to visit when
you can. I hope you have fun buying cigarettes and getting into clubs,
raves, and whatnot. Shit man, always know that there's an open room for
you at my house to crash at whenever you want. Can't wait to chill with
you again.
Sending My Love,
Ni
