Ahhhh 2012, you were good to me. You were amazing, really. To my readers (Maddy and Abby) I really do treat this blog like my journal so I'm sorry for all the little details and stories I'm going I delve into. I give you permission to stop reading whenever I get boring! :)
I finished junior high this year and it came fast, almost too fast, almost. With the closing of my years at Millcreek came the end of my days of 9th grade, which I really loved. I had a locker by Emmie and it was through that and our constant drug deals (don't worry about it) that we became friends. I took my first AP class and it was a fun class that did challenge me. It was also the first months of 2012 where my friendship with Abel began to develop stronger than ever. He would tell me about his college experiences when we both got home from school. It was also my first year of seminary and despite anything, I loved seminary! In May I turned 15 and I have to be honest I don't really remember my birthday but with the closing of my 14th year I felt a little bit scared and very sassy when 15 came around.
Summer of 2012 was amazing, it was the best one yet. Abel and I spent the first day at the rope swing at Kaysville and we went to a body of water every week, always with different people. It was during summer of 2012 that I grew to look up I my big brother, that I was pretty much was a fish, and began to drive. Youth Conference was a blast up at Lava Hot Springs, and Girl's Camp was, as always, suuuper fun and sassy. We had plenty of lake days up at Pineview, Kaysville, Farmington, and Causey. Manny, Abel, Paul and I hung out a lot and I don't know if it was because I didn't really have friends my age of if I wanted to hang out with them more than cocky and sometimes mean freshmen. I went to Flaming Gorge with Matt, Micah, Manny, Abel, and Josee and that was so fun, take me down like a domino!
I literally drove my parents crazy when I asked if I could drive every time we went somewhere.
I jumped off a high cliff at Causey and swam across the reservoir too. The raft and trailer became our best friend as we took them almost everywhere we went. I practically spent my summer in my swimsuit and a sundress.
We all dressed up and painted out faces like the Joker for Matt's surprise birthday party and danced the afternoon off after our piñata hitting
I constantly played Call of Duty with Manny all night and other silly iPad games until when we sent him off in his mission. Elder Cabezas is missed!
Abel opened his mission call and in 2 months we sent him off and it was a hard thing to do but I know that it was something he had looked forward to all summer long.
I started high school and I honestly was very nervous yet anxious. I was such a sophomore, I basically had the word stamped onto my head. However my seminary class and friends and BHS have made my sophomore experience so far sooo awesome! I found my best friend, became besties with Maddy, and made many other friends in all my classes! I got my first smartphone this year and I love it. I strengthened my testimony in the gospel and came to love my ward even more. I've survived these past couple of months without Abel and Mondays have become one of my favorite days of the week because I receive letters from him. I've learned more and am on my way home from an amazing vacation.
I spent New Years on the Bay Bridge and saw the fireworks storm over the city buildings and their reflection on the ocean. So lovely. All in all I've loved and enjoyed 2012 it was the best of the best!!!
I figure I should make a New Years Resolution. My resolution will be to smile more, enjoy the simple things, pray often, cherish moments and people, and love my life.
I promise I'll do my best. Happy New Year everybody! :)
