2011.  It’s a new year and I decided to make my first blog.  I want to post a picture that I take every day for the entire year of 2011.  I think it will be interesting to go back and look at my year through photographs.  A year can change a lot of things in a person’s life.  After 2011 is over I probably won’t be the same person I am now.  I never was the type to keep a diary.  When I was little I had one with cute puppies on the cover and a little key to open it, but I never actually used it, just thought it was cool.  I actually hate writing, but I’m going to try it out on this blog.  Maybe it will be some type of catharsis for me or at least that’s what I’m hoping.  I can’t promise to post a picture and write every day because I know that most likely won’t happen, but I’m going to try my best to post as much as I can. 

So since it’s the New Year I guess I should make a resolution.  I don’t normally make one or if I do I never follow through, but this year it’s different.  My resolution this year is to be happy.  I know that sounds silly, but I have spent the past 3 months of my life being the most miserable I have ever felt.  I think I put other people’s happiness before my own; always trying to please people and not really thinking about the effect it has on me.  It may sound selfish, but I think I need to make myself happy before I can make others happy.  I have come to realize that my happiness relies on me and not other people.  I’m the only one who makes changes in my life that will increase my happiness.  If anyone actually reads this blog and what I write that would be amazing.  Whether you know me personally or just stumbled upon this page, I’m really going to try and put my whole self into this.  I’m a person who keeps a lot of things inside so it will be a challenge for me to open up and share my feelings with the world.  If you’re out there to listen, thanks, I really appreciate it.  Happy New Year. I wonder where it will take me.
