thoughts for the day..

I’m turning my life around, this past year has been one of the worst. I’m so appreciative that I am alive, and I will not waste this precious gift of life I have been given. Everyone, don’t hold back. Be who you want to be, smile every chance you get, do not give up, and love those around you.

Things to look forward to in 2011:

1. going home next weekend :) 
2. March 4th - graduating my associates (the pastry/baking part of my degree) 
3. Possible trip to visit family in the south over break? 
4. March 29th - moving into an apartment and starting bachelors
5. July - summer break for three weeks =)
6. September - My 21st birthday! 
7. Trip to Italy for 4-6 weeks!! (SO EXCITED FOR THIS!) 
8. Christmas break =) 

Happy New Years to everyone sorry it has been a while since I have updated this. I have many pictures to come soon from my current class and for the most part I am enjoying plated desserts. Today we had a snow day because we got hit pretty hard with a storm here. CIA has not canceled classes in about 27 years so this was a BIG deal! But i need to prepare for class tomorrow and get a good nights sleep. Overall I'm very excited for what God has in store for me and hopeful that this year will be a much better than 2010!
