27

Happy birthday to me!

Now that I'm one year older, there are some things I'd like to acknowledge and several persons to thank:

-To my family, immediate and extended...thank you for not being sick or dying, and for getting better if you were sick. And thank you for everything.

-To my friends, old and new...thank you for sticking by me. Also, thank you for calling me out on my many idiocies as well as looking out for me. If I made any mistakes towards you, my apologies. I'll try to make it up somehow.

-To my one and only...Maybe this year, perhaps. Here's to hoping.

-To God...you sure do know how to make things interesting.

Letsee...Some pseudo-important things (to me at least) that I have accomplished between the age of 26 and 27 (drum roll, please):

1. Got into Med School (Woo Hoo!!).

2. Stayed alive for one more year (nice).

3. Got into better shape - well, I have a two-pack. 4 more and we got ourselves a party! Oh and I can run 7 miles if I really have to.

4. Went on a few dates...albeit none of them panned out. It was some fun, tho =).

5. I learned how to make a website ::raising the dork flag::

6. Managed to build a "modest" library of fictional literature, thanks to the local library and second-hand book stores, which also means that I've read a whole lot this past year (that's saying something for a guy who used to hate books).

7. Broadened my palate for wine.

8. I am more open to country and folk music now. Yeehaw!

9. Somehow, I've managed to put 40,000 miles on my car...and most of the driving was in Jersey...yikes.

10. I finally cleaned my room.
