"I'm sick of complaining about a beautiful life."

The title for this blog post comes from Seether's song, Tonight, which you can see on the left for my "Song of the Day."  I'm not saying that I go around complaining about life, saying it sucks, or what have you.  But, throughout my life, I have had some not so great things happen.  And now, as I've gone through the past year, I've realized that I do have a beautiful life.

I know I already made a post about a one year anniversary, but this one is different; the last one was about this blog being a year old, and this one is about me having been in Missouri for a year.  Lauren and her folks, David and Deb, surprised me with a sort of anniversary party at their house tonight.  There was a wonderfun balloon, my favorite dinner, and they even got me membership for the Titanic Historical Society!  It's so EXCITING!  I'm quite happy.  Words cannot express how grateful I am to my second family for everything they've done for me.  I only hope I can repay them one day.

Another thing slightly new: I have officially decided that I will go study abroad in Quebec next summer.  I must.  Truman has a program at the University of Laval in Quebec City, and I must go.  I really feel like it's time.  I can get financial aid, and maybe scholarships, and I really think I can do this.  It will be for five weeks, so basically the month of July.  It would seriously be the most amazing experience ever.  I really hope it happens.

Here's to what'll be another awesome year!
