Like Sherlock & Watson

So tomorrow I might be going to see Sherlock Holmes with Sam and some other people. I'm hoping beyond hope that I'll be allowed to go!! Things aren't looking so good so far, but I'm still holding onto hope.

Am I crazy for missing him so much? I don't know.. sometimes I feel like I should just let go for a while. Then again, I've tried that, and.. well.. you've seen just how well THAT worked. :P

The thing is that I believe we're just as close as we've always been. Mere time shouldn't have changed that, right? We were always friends. ALWAYS. That's what it feels like at least. I mean, on Monday he turns 16, and it feels like just yesterday we were turning 12. That somewhat floors me. We've known each other since we were 10. That just seems pretty awesome to me.

It's not like I wouldn't care as much if I didn't have feelings for him either. (I've never really known what it's like to not have feelings for him, but you get the picture ;]). We're just.. something. I can feel it. Best friends no matter WHAT. We're like Lucy and Mr. Tumnus. Like Bella and Jacob.

Like Sherlock and Watson. ;]

''I keep running into trees!''

So for Christmas we received a Wii, along with Animal Crossing: City Folk. Which, by the by, is AMAZING. :] Hannah and I have been playing the version for DS for about a year, so we know EVERYTHING, and Renee and my mom have absolutely no idea what they're doing. It's hysterical! Renee keeps trampling all my pretty flowers, and my mom keeps running into trees. (Hence the post title :]). She is like a tween when she's playing. It's both entertaining.. and a little frightening. Haha. She has managed to destroy three patches of flowers (OK compared to Renee's five, the stinker), buy a house near the beach, and befriend a pink dog named Cookie.

Mmhmm. She's lost it, folks. XD

Renee keeps calling me a ''closet blonde'', cause the highlights I got over the summer are coming through the dark brown, reddish brown and black (yes, my hair is like 6 different colors right now XD), so now it's turning gold in some places.

My mom still calls me Meggie.

Hannah calls me Renesmee.

Renee calls me a blonde.

I think I like Renesmee better. ;P

In my 15th year of life ...

I'm not going to start this out by saying ''OMIGOSH this is gonna be the best year ever!''. No sense in jinxing it ;]. I'll just have to make the best of whatever this year throws my way.

So. 2010. WOW.

As I sit here and think back on the previous 365 days, I realize that I tend to dwell on the negative. Which is out-of-character for me, being the optimist that I normally am. My mind takes me to all the places I wouldn't normally go, like Renee's graduation or March. I'll be honest: March was one of the worst months of my life.

But then I realize that though 2009 certainly wasn't my favorite year, it was most definitely one of the most important. I learned things in 2009 that I believe will help me in the future. Sure, it took a lot of tears and heartache, but anything that's worth anything is a fight.

And it's worth fighting for.

Happy 2010 everybody!
