Good bye twenty five and hello twenty six. Geez, that sounds old. The end of my mid twenties.
Twenty five was good to me; rekindled old flame, project 365, ran a half marathon, attended two weddings, traveled and a lot of wining and dining.
There's really not much of a story to tell and if there is maybe you'll one day get to read about it on our wedding website. Basically long story short, Henry and I had dated our senior year of high school and went our separate ways after we broke up. We somehow became friends again and around this time last year, we started dating again.
It was also March of last year when I started My Photo Diary: Project 365. I was inspired by my pledgesister, Christine, as I saw the start of her project starting the beginning of 2011. The mission of this project is to document a photo a day for a year (365 days). People usually start it at the beginning of the year so they can reflect on what has happened to them in that one year. Since I did not discover the project until way after the 1st of January, I decided to start it on the first day of my birth month. I have just completed one year's worth of picture (though I've missed a few days here and there). As I scanned through all the photos, I realized how rewarding this project was. It definitely puts a smile on my face!
I can't believe I ran and completed the Nike's women half marathon. With minimal training I completed the half marathon in 2:44 minutes. One more thing knocked off my bucket list. It was such a rewarding experience and with the city's scenic routes, the time passed by really fast. Both my toe nails got bruised and eventually fell off, but it was all worth it!
We're slowly approaching the age where lovebirds in our circle of friends are starting to tie the knot. In May, I attended my friends Bo and Ray's wedding in Hawaii and in September, I attended Sabrina and Mike's Wedding in San Francisco. Check out pictures here and here.
2011 was a year full of adventures and travels, all of which was with wonderful company, particularly with my boo!

My birthday outfit! I knew this would be my birthday dress the second I
laid eyes on it, so vintage, classy and conservative. I loved the
details in the front and the back. So elegant, I had to put my hair up
and wear minimal jewelry.
