To start off, I must say that the year 2007 was an incredible one for me, probably my best year so far. I attribute this to many events and changes that occurred in my life, namely the following:
- I graduated high school. This was the single biggest relief ever. I was not a big fan of high school.
- I got into UBC, after getting my hopes dashed twice.
- I made it into Blog Squad, bringing together my favorite school and favorite pass time.
- I made a bazillion friends within that first week.
- I got a boyfriend, my first one, and fell in love.
- Through A LOT of hard work and all-nighters I managed to pass all my courses.
Those are some of my victories that lead me to have hope for 2008. All that said, I have some resolutions:
- To not procrastinate so damn much. (I am already failing at that one, as I have an Arts One essay to write…)
- To be the best girlfriend I can be.
- To be proud of my marks.
- To be more available to my friends and those I love.
- To be more charitable.
Those all seem doable. I’ve never been one to make these sorts of things, but sitting here after one year of awesome hard work, and seeing what that hard work accomplished, I realize that I really should dedicate myself more to my own happiness and well-being, as well as that of others.
I am currently on the last of three winter break adventures, all of which will be recounted as soon as I return to UBC. Wish me luck!

Good luck, Sam! Have the best rest of the winter break you can possibly have. :)
You have an Arts One essay to write? Seriously?
Glad to see Blog Squad on the list :) :) :)
