I’m ecstatic that 2012 has arrived!

I love New Year’s Eve and New Year’s. Heck, that’s why I got married on New Year’s Day. (We just celebrated two years as Mr. and Mrs., in case your interested. I’m paying homage to the big event with a wedding day preview photo.) But, this year I’m abnormally excited for the New Year.

Last year, 2011 was terribly difficult for me. I enjoyed some really great times, but I spent much of the year stressed, defeated and near tears. That’s why I can’t wait to see what 2012 has in store for me.

In 2011, I opted to go to school full time, while working full time and attempting to function as a normal human being. This ultimately led to stress, tears and a disconnection from myself and my own dreams. But, I made it through to the other side.

I can officially announce that I’m the proud owner of a second graduate degree. But, I can also announce that I’ve put my plans to continue pursuing a doctorate degree on an indefinite hold. I need a break! And more importantly, I need to reevaluate what it is that I want out of this life.

So, I’ve made a promise to myself to enjoy this year. It’s going to be the year of fun, blogging and big dreams! What are your hopes for the New Year?
