Happy New Year, 2010! As I bid a fond farewell to the past decade, I have to take a moment to reminisce about how much these 10 years have changed my life in huge ways: I graduated from both high school and college. I got a "real" job and started my professional career. I met and married my amazing husband. I moved to New York and became responsible for my own home, pets, cars and life. I grew up.

A mere 10 year period of my life has passed and I have changed so much that I barely recognize myself in my own memories. I have no regrets, only valuable knowledge from the many life-lessons that I learned along the way. I welcome 2010 and this new decade and hope that it can provide me with even more happiness, knowledge, positivity, health and love than I have already received.
