So, it is almost my official 1/2 birthday for the 2009 calendar year. As some of you may recall, I began this blog in honor of my 25th birthday on May 17th of this year. I was really anxious and a little sad about turning 25. I was reminiscing about some of the best times of my life... high school, childhood soccer teams, swim team, neighborhood friends, my college days. I felt like the ripe old age of *25* really was the farewell to all those amazing memories.
I am quite happy... in fact, THRILLED to admit that I was wrong. So far, the first half of my 25th year has been one of the best times in my life. I am truly happy to be where I am in life at this point. I am feeling confident about my work, taking on more responsibilities and being more of a leader in my school. I am all settled in my own home, am paying my own bills, and still have some fun spending money to enjoy. Andy and I recently got engaged and I could not be happier or more excited to spend the rest of my life with him. Wedding planning is so fun, even through the stressful moments, and I already feel like this time is going too quickly. I want to enjoy every second of the planning and engagement time before next summer. My friendships are as strong as ever and I know without a doubt the people who I can rely on through thick and thin. I love my family as much as ever and have all the support I need.
Turning 25 was a little scary... but so far, it has been nothing to be afraid of. I can only hope the next half of 25 is every bit as fantastic as the first half. I just hope to continue to try and live in the moment and enjoy 25 for all it's worth.

I agree completely. When I first turned 25, I was in a little bit of a depressed mood. However, in this year professionally, socially and with owning a home I feel all of the great accomplishments you do. I think I was terrified to tell you the truth. It's not so scary anymore except that I turning 26 in less than a month! Bring it on 26! Happy half birthday!
