New year, new state, new and old friends

A lot has changed since January 2014. Some good, some bad, but all leading towards a life I am grateful for. I don't know what 2015 has in store for me, but I will always be true to myself. I will live life independently, with love for my friends and family all while taking life day by day and not for granted. 

I am especially thankful for the friends that have welcomed me to Wisconsin and my friends back on the east coast. I had a wonderful end to 2014 by introducing some of my closest NJ friends to my new midwest friends. Being surrounded by friendly, welcoming new and old people was extremely reassuring.   

Celebrating the ball drop twice (though we missed the second one) with some fantastic people, gave me such great hope and happiness for a year of uncertainties, possibilities and adventures. 

Thank you to Craig, Arnel, Kerry, Anita, Adria, Genevieve, Caleb, Janelle, Eric, Megan, Mary, Mike, and Eric for celebrating the new year with Jim and I. The Jersey Shore dance party, beer pong, Indian, cards against humanity, laughter, and prom poses made for an unforgettable night. I hope you all had a great time as much as Jim and I did. 

Here's to 2015. May it bring everyone happiness, health and wealth.
