2008....

lets make it great!

this year, in its short 6 days, has already been filled with lessons and awareness.
I know this can only mean great things will continue to lie ahead.

I start my internship tomorrow.
but the flame
that ive always had
of excitement
anxiety
and sorts
is not sparked within me
not that i am not excited
or nervous
but i feel blank

i know it will be fine
and maybe this is a new way
of jitters
for me to experience
im sure it will be great
i hope to be great
but for right now
i am just
hoping
to get through it
and find
my spark
and flame.

my birthday passed
several weeks ago
i am now
25
there, i said it
25
wow.
and for the first time
i dont feel
younger
older
but rather
just right

and now
i am ready
to embrace
just right
and take with it
all the experiences
that it has to offer
and all the lessons
that will continue to come
i hope to learn from them
and repeat
only those
worth repeating.

its not going to be easy
this year will be
the biggest
greatest
challenge
i have faced
in many, many years

how funny is that
of all the things
that i have gone through
experienced
and felt
somehow
there is something
that sticks out
and inside of me
i know
that after tomorrow
whatever happens
i will
never
be
the
same
again.

so
before i go
lay in bed
hopefully
not too
restless
i wanted to fill you in
and let you know

tune in
keep in touch
whats to come
no one knows
but what
i do know
is who i have been
and who i am
and who i will be
shall all
collide
melt
and form
the new
current
me.

wish me
all that
i wish you
love
happiness
oh, and luck!
