I don’t think there is a prettier view of Chicago than from thousands of feet in the air overlooking the city at night. I love flying. I forget how beautiful the world is and how miraculous it looks from the sky and above the clouds.
I told myself I wanted to end winter break missing the city. I hoped that I would come back to school the next semester and be ready for the months ahead. School starts in two weeks and I have found myself missing the hustle and bustle of Chicago. I ended the year and just wanted to get away. After a month home with seeing friends and family I have been refreshed.
Vermont was absolutely beautiful. It was my first time seeing a mountain and let me tell you, no wonder everyone likes looking at those things. It is quite a sight to see! I can’t blame anyone for wanting to live there, though there isn’t much to do in the small towns, the scenery is breath taking and totally beats a skyscraper any day.
I have decided to go into this new year with a positive attitude. To be perfectly honest last year was probably one of the toughest. I sure learned about myself and others. But I think most importantly I learned what a blessing everyday is. I learned that life is short and you never know when it can end for those around you. You don’t want something to end in regrets and what ifs. Say the things you want to say, and do it sooner rather than later.
This is a big year. Graduation is around the corner, and then the real world is here. The day I’ve been working for, and I finally see that light at the end of the tunnel. I have absolutely no idea where or what I will be doing a year from now, but that kind of makes it all the more exciting. I will go where ever the wind will take me and broadcasting world will hire.
2012 is finally here, and I am going to make the most of it. You can be sure of it.
