My year in review 2010

This has probably been the most best year of my life, so far! I'm expecting more to come.
I feel like since it was my Golden year, it added to the amazing-ness of 2010

January: New Years with amazing girls! Ektaa Nehal Shreya Shirley Megan and ME! <3 Fresh start on a new year semester and even relationships. I cleared up things with a special someone.
February: 2 words, oh my. I went on my first date, I got my first kiss (from someone different than my first date haha) I just had my life turned around in one hour.
March: Trip to DC! One of the best days of my life happened there with Neerali and Milan!
April: Milan asked me out :)
May: Finished my freshman year of college. Traveled to about 7 countries in Europe! Learned SO much, experienced a lot, and ate a ton :)
June: Went to India by myself! Had amazing fun with family, ate even more haha
July: Worked at my dad's coffee shop! Met up with friends. Worked out and actually saw results! Took a train to see Milly! One of the best days of my life!
August: School againnn, 4 month anniversary, another best day of my life!
September: Boys & Girls club! Saw Ludacris?
October: Made Raas team!
November: Performed at Diwali Mela
December: Reunited with my family and my best friends <3 Separated from Milan though. Made the cut for MC for vpd :-o 3.86 GPA!


I swear, these are the FEW of the millions of amazing points of this year! These are just on the top of my head.

I don't want this year to end, but I'm sure if I think 2010 was the best, then this is only the beginning and it's going to get better :)

Goodbye 2010, you have been extremely good to me. Thank you

I decided to rearrange my room, but first I need to go through all my crates and boxes and drawers of things.

I have found old jewelry,stickers, and notebooks. I found massive folders of everything I've done 1st grade and up! It's so hard to just throw them away, I'm surprised but I've come a long way!

I've come down to a crate of school stuff but I found this certificate I received in 7th grade when I took that robot baby home for a night. It was hell because that girl would cry in the middle of the night if it didn't sleep properly but what an experience! I totally forgot I did that! The certificate was actually a BIRTH certificate and under "NAME" I wrote "Chagni Shah" hahaha Chagni/Champa were the obnoxiously awful nicknames my dad called and continues to call me. Sigh lol

I found all my report cards, I had a lot of C's in 10th grade, oops lol.

I found a notebook from 2nd grade (1998!) with my warm ups which included writing something relating to the prompt. Within 3 months over the pages I saw an improvement in penmanship, spelling, grammar, AND length of how much I wrote in the alloted time for warm ups!

Go 2nd grade me!

I also found newspapers from 10th grade when I was on staff. And my stupid embarrassing humiliating moment when I wrote Gerald Ford's obituary but accidentally put Jimmy Carter's picture up and then on all the issues of the paper they stapled a slip of paper apologizing for the error. Sophomore year was not my finest.

I think I spent most of my time reading and looking over my past years. It was really nice and made me realize how much I've grown up! cue "awwwwwwwwwwwwwww"

Sadly, my room still looks like a piece of shit. And its 1:05 am and I don't know where my children are and I'm kinda tired.

:)

Just spent the best 40 minutes talking to Milan :)
Who knew a conversation with someone you admire across the world can make you feel 99x more happier?

I love you, desserts

Today I will write my ode to desserts.

Cookies, ice cream, and cakes
How my heart and tongue desire you all.
How easily you make my happiness and my waist line grow.
How I could eat anything with sugar all and every day.
I hate how it takes what seems like eternity to get to you
But seconds to indulge you.
Sometimes, I day dream about you.
The creaminess and sweetness of cold ice cream
The chewiness of warm, oven-baked cookies
The fluffiness of that fluffy cake.
I sometimes catch myself drooling.
My head hurts from wanting you so much.
My stomach growls from wanting you so much.
My tongue salivates from wanting you so much
My tooth aches from wanting you so much.
Oh sweet tooth of mine, how passionate your love for desserts is.
I love you sugar, forever you keep me happy :)


ahahahah, don't judge, i already know i'm a fatty :)

Cracking

I can't stay here anymore

My back is aching
My nerves are going crazy
I feel chaotic in this dead quiet and still campus

One more exam which I'm not fully done studying for.
Quite frankly I don't even want to study, I don't even care anymore!

1pm exam is moved to 2pm. It's like I'm being asked to be tortured.

On top of that, my beautiful boy is leaving me for a beautiful country and to be honest, I'm slightly jealous of a land mass.

I honestly feel like a part of me is gone, I feel a lost of motivation and a desire to sleep all day. Why would I want to get up and get ready or do something productive when my entire heart is going missing for 25 days?

I just want him to return back to me in one piece and in peace :) Speaking of, Happy Early EIGHT Months!

I want to go shopping so bad, sadly I need to save money for Christmas presents. I have no idea what to get anyone. I'm like the worst person to get gifts because of my indecisiveness as you all know tends to take over my state of mind.

Anyways I need to sleep so I can wake up on time and study and pack and get this stupid exam that's plotting to take my life out of the way!

Oh Milan, I hope you have a safe trip

And all my bones began to shake
