2003 is quickly coming to an end. Reflect on this past year; its trials and tribulations. What have you learned from these experiences and how have you grown as a person?
Let's recount on what's happened this year. I've had sex. Mom's been cured of cancer. I've become a senior. I've kept a job for a long time. I've fallen more in love. I've gotten a car. I can legally see R rated movies. Zack almost had surgery. I went to Conference at Longwood (realizing in the process that I do not want to go there...) My Dad has moved out of the country. A man I've known my entire life has passed away. I went on Birth Control.

A lot has happened this year, and I like that. I've fallen more in love than I ever thought I'd let myself, and that's the only thing that matters to me. This past month especially has been amazing. I think I've grown a lot as a person, emotionally and mentally (I consider them two different things.) I think that I'm finally beginning to figure out who I am and what I want out of life...and am looking forward to that more than anything else in the world.
