2011.

Shall we take a look back on 2011?  Yes, yes we shall. 

I went on an epic road trip to Oregon with some of my best friends:

I was BAPTIZED:

I started nannying a fantastic five year-old child:

I went to a few Twins games:

I went to Wisconsin too many times:

I was able to go back to Camp Joy:

I went to the Minnesota State Fair for the first time:

I went to an apple orchard for the first time (and touched a goat for the first time!):

This was a good year.  In addition to the things mentioned above, I played softball for my church league this summer, my aunt and uncle blessed me with a place to live this summer, I began TAing for Human Physiology, I shadowed a bunch of physicians, I went to Hope Spring Retreat and Slumber Party, I started volunteering in the emergency department of HCMC, I baked a whole bunch of things, I learned how to play disc golf (stretch), and other things that I have failed to document.

This time next year, I will be done taking the MCAT and applying for medical school, I will be waiting for interviews, and nearly done with my undergraduate degree.  

In 2012, I hope to give more and take less, volunteer more, read more, pray more, and try a bunch of new things.
