Hello 2012

Dear World,

Hello again! It has been over 6 months since we've last spoken. 6 months, that is half a year!! Wow. So much has happened in that time, I've become addicted to tea, it is 2012, How I Met Your Mother is the best tv show ever, Tim Tebow is almost as popular as Lady GaGa and N*Sync, and I can make a mean lasagna these days. Here are the highlights of my life that flew by so quickly. :)

I survived the first semester of teaching!! I cannot count the hours I've spent organizing music, cleaning, planning, and immersing myself in music. I've cried tears of joy, frustration, anger, confusion, and just plain stress. But in spite of everything else, or maybe because of it, I have become even more excited about my journey as a teacher. I have learned so much this first semester, and it just makes me so excited to think that I get to spend the rest of my life doing exactly what I love!!

I have been attempting to cook. :) I am making progress, I only make Mac n Cheese about once a week. (and in my defense those are on my most stressful days. :P) So now I can make a mean chicken and rice dish and some classy cheesy potatoes, and don't forget the lasagna!!

I still have my steady beau, Benjamin, and we have been together for 2 years and 3 months. This year has been hard, being apart, but I am so very happy to have him in my life. :)

My life is pretty good. My family is close, my job is challenging but I love it, and I still have my pet cactus to keep me company at home.

So that is my life up-to-date. Here's to more adventures and shenanigans that I'm sure will be heading my way!!

Yours truly,
Kymbre
