Allow me now to be absolved from all past posts I have promised to write but have yet to find the time/motivation to post.
Second half of 2011 (July to Dec)
After writing the post about the first half of the year, I wrote about my best British friend, Lee. I was rather sad to see him go but it was the very next night that I met a rather lovely man ho has since then stolen my heart. Him and I spent the entire month of July together, and that time remains some of the happiest I have known. After he left I started reevaluating my direction in life, and although always a psychologist, I decided that I wanted to teach, which had always been an ambition of me and began to set that plan in motion. It was a few weeks after that, that I decided instead of staying here and teaching I wanted to go abroad and teach English, as this would not only allow me to help others, it would allow me to travel. In November I cross off an item off my bucket list by cooking an entire Thanksgiving meal from scratch! December was spent dreading my birthday as I thought 25 was the end of the world, where I would automatically start sprouting a few grey strands and the wrinkles on my face were going to start making their stay permanent. I am please to inform you that this has not been the case. I can honestly say that 2011 has been my favorite year to date, and I am pleased to have finally successfully completed a New Years resolution I set.

Christmas is going to the dogs
This year for Christmas I got the absolute best present, a puppy! He's was a six week old yellow lab, and he was the absolute cutest little guy ever! Now he is a three month of chewing machine, but none the less I love him all the same. I never thought I'd love a dog so much, but Cooper (official name Admiral John Herrington Cooper) has melted my heart!He's so smart too, and I've already taught him how to sit, lie down, shake hands, stay, and play fetch. I absolutely love my little guy, who I fear when he is fully grown will be the size of a horse.

New Year, same resolution
So like last year, since I was so successful in my resolution, I have decided to let it roll into 2012. I am determined to make 2012 my best year yet! Already this early into the new year, I know that this year is going to be HUGE and so much better than last year. I think it really is going to be a turning point in my life, a whole new book. I think it is very fitting that my 25th year should be a time for new adventures and reinvention. I'm genuinely excited. Here's to the next quarter of a century :)
