Constant Reminder

Welcome to 2013 everybody. 

And since it's the day of looking ahead and looking behind

Lets remember some things about 2012

January

I dove headfirst into January without knowing what a ride 2012 would be. 

I made the resolution not to make any resolutions

I became afraid of Global Warming because there was no snow

And I planned for my birthday far too much. 

February

In February life hit me hard in the face

I planned more for my birthday

I cramped like there was no tomorrow

I celebrated single's awareness day 

I turned 14

I cried about not being a beehive

And I felt taken for granted, hurt and angry.

March

March was an up in the roller coaster of 2012

I went to the Gold and Green ball and realized that no stake dance compares

I went to the arts festival at my mom's school and painted murals on faces

I washed my Temple recommend 

I went to the Hunger Games premiere and realized I hate mornings

And my sister's birthday snuck up on me. 

April

In April my thoughts were consumed with Florida

I packed for Florida

I flew to Florida

I went to Florida

I loved Florida

Universal studios became my second home

Harry Potter World became my first home.

May

May was filled with patronus days

I tried to have a Cinco De Mayo party

I saw the Avengers a few times

I flew a plane

I celebrated Keeley's and Kasia's birthdays

And summer finally began.

June

In June summer took me in a tidal wave of awesome

A friendship started new

I went to EFY 

My parents vacationed in Roatan

I moved to my new room downstairs

I ripped down my old blog and started this one

July

In July I cared too much about things I don't care about now

I went to the Temple by myself for the first time

I decided I hate babysitting

I got myself a bike and named him Phil Coulson

I celebrated Brooklyn's birthday

I went and saw Wicked and spent all my time on pottermore

And my sister got engaged.

August

I cried when summer ended in August

I went to girlscamp (aka girls vacation) 

I got good use out of Phil

I took a reading challenge 

My sister left to college

I became a freshman

And I gave up on nightgames.

September

In September I got on a Jane Austin High

I read and watched Pride and Prejudice too many times to count

I got a new calling as the miamaid secretary

I celebrated Emily's birthday

I texted my sister a whole lot

And I went on many dates with my mother

October

October was when I finally realized school had started

I watched a lot of Phineas and Ferb

I loved General Conference

I lost sight of my priorities

I became a professional slacklete 

I enjoyed taking the bus to school 

I started listening to Christmas music

And I wrote a whole lot of poetry.

November

November flew by faster than I could have ever imagined

I realized that life goes on

I rocked at states and capitals

I bruised like a peach

I choose to be Thankful

I decided that ordinary days are good days

And I found myself a pavilion.

December

December was busy. Lets leave it there

Attention became scarce.

Everything had to do with biology

I went to a few basketball games

I celebrated Hannah's birthday

I became a house elf

I gave up my room for some family

My sister got married

And Christmas happened. 

If you got through all of that I applaud you. 

Last year was crazy and full of ups and downs

half the stuff I cared about I don't care about now

It was messy, busy and beautiful

Happy New Year.
