happy 2008!

i've never been one to make new year's resolutions. i've always thought that it's stupid to wait till the beginning of a new year to start something that you know that you should do, or that you want to do...there's no time like the present. but this year i've decided to make one...well two actually.
first, i'm making a resolution to actually write on my blog! i started this so that all of the wonderful people in my life can keep up with what's going on in my life, but then i never updated it...so it's my goal to post something at least twice a week. we'll see how long that lasts!
and my second resolution (and my actual resolution) is to be me. i've always been the sweet, timid, wear my heart on my sleeve, give you the shirt off of my back kind of person. i've been teased because of it. i've been taken advantage of because of it and because of that i began to change. i like being all of those things, it's who i am and if that means that sometimes people are going to take advantage of that then that's on them.
so here's to 2008, to blogging, and to me!
