Zwanzig

Today's my last full day being 20 years old- that's a little weird. I'm not sure I'm ready to be 21 (with all of its implications, particularly since I attend UVa, a relatively party-heavy school- I have been able to resist parties up until now because I haven't felt comfortable breaking the law and drinking while I was under 21 years old).

I do hope 21 will overall be a better year than 20 was (although the past few months of year 20 have been some of the best of my life, the first few were terrible). I am determined to just keep working on improving myself (and show my Mom and aunts that I'm not completely ridiculous) as well as keep up with life :) My 2011 resolutions will stay as my birthday resolutions: Live Well, Laugh Often, Love Much, Don't Enter the ER (although I'm thinking I potentially want to strike the last part of that resolution- ever since I've thought of it, the dumb injuries for the most part have gone away to be replaced with awful illnesses [I much prefer the dumb injuries, particularly because the stories for the injuries are usually entertaining while the ones for the illnesses- if they even exist- are not]).

*The title of this post is the German word for 'twenty'- I happen to think the German terms for 'twenty' and 'twelve' (zwölf- the age I started learning German, back in England in 7th grade) are awesome*
