Out with the Old

But I loved the old.

2009 may go down in history as one of the best years of my 21 years of existence.

Being 20 was magical.

_

I ran through the beaches of Rhode Island.

I went surfing on the North Shore.

I slow danced under the stars in New Hampshire with someone I've come to love.

I took a nap in Central Park.

Walked along the Freedom Trail in Boston.

Ate lobster and got stuck in a rainstorm in Maine.

I took a road trip across the country with my little sister, and felt selfish that I got her to myself for four months this summer.

_

I cried more than any other year. but I smiled and laughed even more.

_

Out with the Old, in with the new.

I loved the old,

But the new is waiting, sparkling, taunting, promising.

_

Bring in 2010.
