My life has changed a lot in a year. Last year, Christmas was much more of a big deal. This year it was just fun. I'm a lot happier this year, it's strange to realise the stark contrast between this year and last. Last year, I was upset and overwhelmed and frustrated by leaving my faith and things at school and just generally trying to figure out where I was at and where I wanted to go. This year, I feel like I have a lot more figured out, and I like my situation for once. I have good friends, I like my apartment, I am having a ton of fun with my boyfriend, school has been awesome this year and I feel like I'm really getting somewhere with it. They say the first year of deconversion is the hardest, and I've made it.

Chad: The wine the other night was a Peach Chardonnay, it comes from the LCBO, in the section with the fruit wines. They've got raspberry, blackberry, strawberry, lots of stuff. Personally, I prefer the peach. Very little alcohol content, and it's $6.95, go for it. :)

Looking forward to a semester of only having classes between 10 and 2, Monday to Thursday. :)
