I'm back!

Wow. Could it be possible? Is Tippie really coming back to the blogging world? There has to be a catch, right?

Well, after a very long break, I'm finally making my way back. A lot, and I do mean that quite literally, has happened since October of 2009. A whole year of growing older and making new memories!

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

Some Highlights:
♥ Started College
♥ Took up Swing Dancing and completely fell in love with dance. I go every week now.
♥ Actually applied for a job, even though I didn't get it.
♥ Went to Chicago and fell in love with that place
♥ Went to a wedding in another state. Completely enjoyed myself!
♥ Got to hang out A LOT with my new best friend
♥ Have some new favorite bands
♥ Have some new favorite TV shows
♥ Spent a lot of time with family
♥ Got my ears pierced ((actually, I got this done last week :P))
♥ Got my license!

I wish I could organize this and remember everything, but it is simply too hard! What did I do this year that disappointed me? I totally ditched writing. :( I seriously didn't work at /all/ on writing.

What am I going to do to change this? I'm going to bump up my writing skills and work on shining up a completed novel enough to hopefully send in to possibly get published. It's a big goal and will I accomplish it this year? Probably not, but I can at least try!

So, what does me returning to you exactly mean? First off, I'm going to work on reinventing my blog. It needs a makeover, don't you think? After that, I plan on giving you guys updates on my life, posts about my progress on a certain challenge I am giving myself, book reviews, and other fun stuff.

I think something I lost this year was a love of reviewing books. Before, I used to sign up to be a pre-publication reader for HarperCollins Children's books, but when that finished, I kind of gave up on reviewing books. That was a silly thing to do! So, you guys can look forward to book reviews from me. I need to revise that in my life as well...I read hardly any books last year. This year I am changing that!

See you guys after my blog's makeover! I'm excited for this!
