I know it's early, this is something I should do on december 31st but since I rarely have time to write nowadays. So now I'm gonna do this now :)

First of all, it started as a very good year. The winter had barely touched my city and it meant no traffic problems (well some but nothing out of the ordinary), my girls and I headed to Germany to see my sisters favorite band which actually started badly (too much people, the doors closed right in front of us) but ended awesome :) yes she met her favorite person in the band! She was so HAPPY.

 

Everything wasn't all joy when our pet bird Max got called into heaven, for a moment we thought we couldn't get through the pain but somehow God enlightned us through and turned our pain into pure love for one another. Our gorgeous friend became a star and lights our skies every morning.

 

In may I went to Barcelona, Spain to attend a "Vampire Diaries" convention...which was so incredibly awesome and even though not all ended as I wanted, it was just okay :) I mean...I hugged and got kissed by Ian Somerhalder thank you very much!! Had a gorgeous moment with Matt Davis and Michael Trevino plus a bonus with Jamie Christlow (an aspiring actor and Ian Somerhalders doubble). I was at the beach, saw the most of Barcelona but I vowed that I would return.

 

 I tried to get a hold off my "love life" and asked a guy on a date, I had the feeling that we were on the same page but it seems like I was the only one interested. Unfortunately it ended before it even began. I went on another date with a guy that asked me out, that didn't work either...this time it was me. He wasn't what I wanted for my future so I broke it off.

I went out with my guy-friend and we had a nice time, but he ended our friendship out of ignorance: I called him "Sheldon Cooper" and he ended our 8 year old friendship of love and hate.

 

Work work work, something that looked like summer stopped by us and my vacations came. Spent time with my girls, my sister turned 22 and I went off to London in august. I had a very nice time, actually enjoyed the summer but I missed my girls...wished they could see how beautiful city London is.

Came back to work, had some issues with my boss about being sick (she's still making problems from when I got diabetes 2 years ago and had to stay home for a while or when I needed councelling). Somehow I was ready for everything but it worked out alright...I longed to travel again but unfortunately I had to push my plans some more. Maybe next year.

 

I began studying history, to complete my grades and next year start studying to become a teacher. Let's hope it works out so I can leave my current job and do something new with my life. I don't want it to run by and regret it later. I see so many people doing what they want or leaving everything behind just to pursue their dream. That's me, I wanna do that...I'm gonna do that!

 

So here I am...a few weeks before christmas and unfortunately home, sick. I've been at home for 2 weeks and will be entering my third week. I hope I get well soon, 'cause I know problems will be waiting for me when I come back. But I guess it's a sign of stress...I can't let go of my job even though I'm sick.

I'm trying to make my x-mas shopping through the internet, since I can't go out shopping. Hopefully I haven't lost my "special" skills when it comes to find presents for my closest family and friends,

Well...what more to say than Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year. All I wish is to be healthy and to have a good work, that my family is healthy and everything we plan works out alright. Love for all and the people that has done me or my family harm...should remember that always. I trust in God and in his infinite grace.

 

Love,

Cilla
