Hello everyone!

I thought that I would do a year in review type thing. Except it will be January 99-January 2010. Some of the things I discuss people will know.. the others will be new information. This is going to be rather long so it will be cut up into many parts.

1999 - This year I graduated from St. Anne's. I got on Honour Role. And an accumulated 9 academic awards. I also weighed the most I ever had 184 pounds. It was a great summer of fun with friends and taking an year break from school. I did a lot of baby sitting that year. I also met someone who would change things in the upcoming years. I started talking to Anthony on the (now out of date) ICQ. On random chat. Also, I turned 19! Old enough to drink :D

2000/2001 - I started college (Fanshawe College) I was taking ECE (Early Childhood Education) I got a lot of independence this year. Never lived away from home before. My house mates where a bunch of assholes. I have a very shy way about me (and Im still shy on occasion) I got bossed around a LOT. I got to go to a lot of college parties. This is also when I got my first kiss and yes I do still talk to him. Another first was my star tattoo. Hard to believe it's 9 years old now. It marked how my life and shyness had changed. I met my first boyfriend Brian. Tamara had introduced us. He was into a lot of anime, video games, rpg and basically a Japano-Freak. He is the one who got my interested in anime.. More specifically Japanese art and culture. Which has been a HUGE influence on me today (as you all can tell) I started working during the summer at the Seaforth Creamery and in fall of 2000 moved in with my friend Sarah. We both got/get along great. Always fun to hang out with and party with :D I had started General Arts (Liberal Arts for you yanks) I took a lot of great classes.. Japanese 101, Science Fiction and Fantasy, Anthropology, and computers tech. Computer tech is what got my in to my final course in college. This is also the year I met Mike. I met Mike through Melanie. We would spend lots of time together and we had gf/bf relationship for an year or so. We also still chat once n' a while.

2001/2002 - by January 1st 2002 I had been taking Computer tech support at the Fanshawe campus in Woodstock Ontario. I had one nasty bitch of a room mate. At this point I was pretty much hanging out in my room all the time. She shared her room with her bf. I got to visit Anthony after about 4 years of talking and e-mailing over the internet. It was the farthest I had ever traveled alone. Both scary and wonderful. I had really liked Anthony for a long time. Had a great trip and met many of the people that I call "friend" to this day. I also met Adam through Anthony. Who would have known that we would be married in the future. This year I graduated from Fanshawe with an certificate in Computer Tech support. I was FREE but had to work. And work was not always easy to find -_-

2002/2003 - Adam and I had officially started dating. He would drive up to Clinton for a weekend every other week. I was working in Stratford at FAG bearings Ltd. Best job ever!! I worked there for a full summer as well as three month's before Adam proposed to me :)

That's where this journal ends. check back for more 2003-2009
