2013!!!! (the world didn't end)

Hey readerrrrrssss!!!!!
Glad to say, the world didn't end like it was supposed to!
This year has been an unusual year, with many exiting events.
like the snowstorm, opening my cafe, buying my first house, etc...

Believe it or not this Christmas was the best one yet! I had so much fun singing carols, wrapping presents, opening presents, eating, singing, laughing, singing, eating, wrapping presents, opening presents, eating, singing.... I could go on and on.

My parents invited me to their newly renovated, winterized cottage for a little "Holiday Dinner". They also invited my sister, Lara, who lives in Toronto. We had a great time, and Dad even took everyone on a hike around the woods that surround the cottage. It was so quiet, and peaceful, I instantly remembered why I had chosen to live in Horizonia instead of a big city like Toronto, or Vancouver. In the city, the noise never stops, there is always a car going down the street, people talking, walking, singing. But out in the country, all that stops. There is a sense of peace, and calm. There is actually moments when you can't hear anything except your own thoughts. You know at that moment, you aren't stressed, you are content. Nothing fazes you from whatever calm suddenly wraps its arms around you. I realized that, living in a town like Horizonia, gives calm a chance to catch me, whereas, in the city, there are many people to choose from. Calm can only catch so many in its warm hug at once. That is why I also felt lucky that fate chose me to realize that.

Alright, so that was the "mushy" part.

So, on New Years, I celebrated at Caleb and Brenagh's mansion, with Tristan, Elf Conselour, Monster, and Frances. We all counted down 'till the New Year, and cheered, when it arrived. We were happy the world didn't end and we made resolutions together.

Boy, so much work to be done!
