2009 for me was........ exciting. But the word "exciting" doesn't explain it justly. It was AMAZING, NEW, FULFILLING, ACCOMPLISHED AND BEAUTIFUL.
Even though I am a depressed individual (and I attribute this to moving out of California and ending a 4 year relationship with my boyfriend) as I summarize 2009, I conclude it as f-kn awesome.
~LOVE~
No- it didn't happen this year, but I had a lot of fun meeting new guys. I decided to buckle down and consider online dating in January which went poorly--> to good --> to exciting --> to awful--> and to relaxed. I met 6 guys- 4 of which were incredible, well..... the ones I made out with anyway.
I dated James for about 3 weeks in January. To this day, I still consider our first date as the best I've ever had with anyone. However, he decided he was only looking at dating- not a relationship. Faced with rejection once more, I took it extremely hard and cried about it for almost a week. (Pitiful, I know now.)
I met Sebastian in March, a fresh divorcé, and we were a couple all the way until July. He broke up with me stating he wasn't ready for a real relationship, and didn't see us for long term. As of press time, we are together again, and I can't help but wonder why and if his opinions on us have changed at all. I tend to not want to get into conversations regarding the future, and just enjoy the moment.
I went on 3 dates with Gorgeous Guy after Sebastian and I broke up. Even though he was extremely nice, well established and incredibly hot (I still drool when I see his pictures on Facebook) I didn't feel sparks. He was a party animal and too accomplished for me (PhD in Engineering) We didn't have anything to connect with, other than travelling.
I met BEG shortly after and tried my hardest to move on from Sebastian. We dated for 2 months while I selfishly continued in an open relationship with Sebastian- which I kept secret from both guys. When it became apparent that BEG had HPV and oral herpes, I freaked out and slowly started distancing myself, but continued to date him on the side.
~TRAVEL~
I went to NYC for Easter Break, and even though we got a lot of rain the first day, I was excited about going to the Big Apple for the first time.
I also got to visit San Antonio with my family and see the famous Alamo.
Embarked on a 12-day journey to Europe
I went to California for Christmas break with my family. I returned to Houston to spend New Year's with Sebastian.
~Events and Adventures~
Went to the Houston Rodeo, and experienced it for the first time. It was great!!
I graduated from College. Highest Honor Graduate :)
I became a naturalized American citizen. (Photo of the Oath Ceremony)
Went to 2 great concerts by Benny Benassi and David Guetta.
(I'll completely forget about Paul Van Dyk forever cause he sucked)
Went to a very magical night of Disney on Ice
My grandma came to visit us from France for 3 months.
I conclude 2009 with an A. I hope 2010 can continue to be just as exciting.
Happy New Year Everyone!
