A New Year has so much potential. That's why, if I'm thinking correctly, the symbol for a new year is a baby. It's just beginning, and has the next twelve months to grow. (Why said baby is reborn every year, I can't explain)
But thinking about the next twelve months... a lot can change. In March, I turn seventeen, I'll have my full license, and will be able to drive as many of my friends that I want. I'll probably make new friends, and grow apart from old ones. I could lose someone in my family, or maybe a new family member could come along. Hopefully, I'll decide what college I want to go to, and what I'd like to major in, to set up the rest of my life. I'll go to prom, hopefully with the perfect dress and a date that I truly care for, and take a billion pictures. I'll leave junior year behind, and welcome the summer, full of cheerleading and work and friends. My last summer in high school. I'll be a senior cheerleader, which means I'll be making a lot more decisions. I'll hopefully lose weight, too.
Then senior year will start. Wow. It's scary just thinking about it. I'll start thinking about graduation, college, moving out... Something I'm not prepared to think of right now. Honestly... there's a lot I don't want to think about right now. 2011 could bring a lot of good things... but also could bring a lot of bad events. Hopefully, no matter what happens, I'll be able to just... smile because it happened...
