decided to take a leave from my college in the Midwest
recovered from clinical depression and an eating disorder
worked in a doctor's office making as much per hour as my college-grad brother-in-law (muahaha)
funded, planned, and took a solo trip to Australia
registered my own domain
got pierced
stood in the Indian Ocean
found a major that I love (anthropoloGY!)
came into my own as a feminist
started taking good pictures
tested the waters of analogue photography, and fell accordingly in love with toy cameras
was a bridesmaid
developed an addiction to snail mail correspondence
saw Arizona for the first time
stood up on a surfboard
what a good year this has been.
