101 Here I Come: 2010 Here I Come!

On the Title

Roi-Et a.k.a. "101" is a city in the northeast of Thailand. I spent more than "One Night in Bangkok," and was on my way to Roi-Et. It wasn't my final destination in Thailand, but the place where I grew the most. I gained a tolerance for spicy food, and learned a little dialect called Essan-- a mixture of Laos and Thai. I learned that it's not the destination but the journey that matters. Just as random as my adventures were in Thailand, so is my life--it's like living in L.A. (oh by the way L.A. is another nickname for Roi-Et).

2010 Here I Come!

Sadly, 2009 is coming to an end, and that means it is time for me to reflect on this year and all the cool things that have happened. It seems that '09 started off with a bang and then kinda whimpered out, like a really bad fireworks show without an explosive finale. Maybe it was the Obama "change" America was high on, and when there wasn't much of a change everyone felt jaded. Twenty-ten is going to be a good year, I can feel it!

Working backwards here is what happened this year:
My niece Chloe was born
Saw "The Blind Side" 2x
Job searched in California and found 2--Banana Republic & Boys and Girls Club
Was on the news because of my job search
Made the move from Utah to California (all good things must come to an end)
Kelly Clarkson!
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince finally came out
More job searching and interviews in Utah

. . . and that's pretty much it. Lots of time with my family and friends, watching my nieces and nephews grow (one of them is 16 already!), and all the little things in between.

Wow 2009 was a jam packed year!
