so taking inspiration from lane (
discolane), i've decided to do a list of highlights of 2002. i think mine will be by month, as much as i can remember the months for things.
january: i can't remember any highlights...it was a hard month, i think. from my lj, it seems that the highlights would be that ethan won survivor africa. sad, isn't it? nothing else is very high-lighty...it was quite an adjustment period, what with graham crackers and all.
february: decided to do the breast cancer 3-day...a bit of a rash decision, but it worked out rather well. also, celebrating sam's birthday a week early, on pres day weekend was rather fun...i think i've started a tradition since i plan to do the same thing again this year. without the tent, though. yeah...
march: my birthday! not that it was all that exciting this year, actually, but that's ok. also, dance by the shores was my first ever dance comp...and we did pretty well!
april: decided to start going to hillel again because of incident with candy's church group...so a good thing came out of a bad situation. also, the holocaust memorial was very powerfull...not happy, but a highlight nonetheless. oh, and my sister visited and took me out and away from school for a bit...it doesn't seem so exciting anymore, but it was exciting then.
may: went home for memorial day on a whim...not really a highlight, i guess, but nothing too exciting happened, anyhow. oh, almost forgot! we were runners at emerald ball! that was tres exciting...i don't know how i almost didn't remember it. but yes...good times and lots of dance world celebrities.
june: started massage class...met lots of awesome people...basically had a blast. oh, and got to dance with ralph! what an exciting even! almost unbelievable, really! hehe...yes...also, highly overrated, but that's another story.
july: avon breast cancer 3-day...60 miles, 3 days, $2400 raised by me, $7 some million raised by everyone...totally amazing experience
august: nothing too exciting...massage class was great, my internship was fun, but the month itself was a bit difficult to get through. oh, well.
september: got certified as a massage technician! hooray! that's super happy! also went back to sd, which isn't quite as happy, but that's ok.
october: paul mccartney concert was incredible...arguably the best night of my year. also started going out with dan, which was a highlight then. also got closer with the girls in tga. this seems to have been a rather eventful month.
november: making comp alternate was wonderfully exciting. also, thanksgiving and having underground turkey was great! oh, and the fact that cin and sam got together was tres happy!
december: paris! everything about being here is a highlight. also the dance competition was great since we did surprisingly well. oh, and i got an A in linear algebra, which was amazing.
so those are some things that stand out for me from 2002. reading through my lj, i realize that it wasn't an easy year for me...but i've made it through all in one piece, and i think i've learned from it. so it was a successful year, despite everything or maybe because of it. yes. ok, gonna go do something else now...i'm not sure what, though, but that's ok.

lol...
yes, it was a difficult year for you dear...i was there to see most of it (seeing how most of the time i'm within a 1 mile radius of you, with the exception of taiwan, and of course now...) and i think you definitely handled it all admirably. props to you, my dear! love ya! and nikki too!! merry christmas, you guys! you are my friends...(and no, i'm not projecting my schizophrenia...not that i am schizophrenic, of course!) miss you tons, cindy
