A New Year - A New Beginning

     As some, or all of you may know, Ali and I are no longer together. It's a long story as to why, and there were a lot of hurt feelings on both ends, but what's done is done, and we both have to live with our decisions, especially me. As I struggle to get used to being single again after so long, I've been doing a lot of thinking about the different things going on in my life.
     I've done a lot of things I'm not proud of, but in thinking of what I've done that isn't so great, I've realized I haven't done a whole lot that IS. I haven't done a whole lot PERIOD. Sure, I've traveled to a couple new countries. I've flown to new places, but honestly, I didn't get to do some of the things I now wish I could have. If I could change things, I'd have made layovers longer so I could explore a little bit. I'd have planned more so that I'd have more money to just play with. I wish I had done so much more when I went to Australia. I had lots of fun in Canada, but wish I had done more on the layovers getting there.
     I suppose my point is that I'm done. I'm done with worrying about everything and everyone around me. I want to have fun with my life. I want to do whatever the heck I want and not have to worry about what a significant other might think about it. I miss Ali, but I think I need to finally just give up on it and move on with my life since its obvious he wants nothing to do with me.
     I'm going to try and blog more, maybe since I plan to do a lot more I'll have stuff to talk about! At the very least, I'll have lots of new pictures to post and lots of new experiences.

Thanks to everyone who's stood by me through all the hard times. You can never know just how much it has meant to me.
