Life (or something like it)

I woke up this morning thinking about what I've done over the past year. I'm not really sure why rainy weather makes me want to look at my goals, but it does. I think it may also be that I was reading "God is the Answer in an attempt to get myself out of the mood that's been rearing its ugly head with the non-stop rain this week. One of the passages is about trusting God and not being dependent on other events to be happy. I mulled it around in my head a bit and realized that a lot of things have happened this year because of God's influence in my life. A lot of the things that "I've accomplished" were really only possible with His help because at the beginning of this year, I was so depressed that leaving my bed to go to class was almost impossible for me. I digress, though. I'm a lot better now and I'm happy with my life. Ish. 
Back on track then.
What I've done this year:
- Broke up with my old boyfriend and stayed friends with him. Yay!
- Made a few friends that I didn't have before.
- Started meetup groups online, where I mostly hung out with people from work. Which is fine because the people I work with are AWESOME.
- Started dating my current boyfriend, who is quite possibly the sweetest guy on the face of the planet. (I suspect him of being a serial killer, but that's really quite irrelevant.) For some odd reason, he appears to find me enthralling, which goes back to him being a serial killer, but that's fine.
- Went on several road trips: Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Boise, to be precise. 
- Made a bucket list of things to do. That's on this list because it was quite a project. It took an entire weekend. 
- Graduated from law school. Gimpily, but still graduated.
- Became obsessed with sushi and tried several restaurants.
- Took the Idaho Bar Exam. Passed the Idaho Bar Exam.
- Started a board game group, which sounds more boring than it is. 
- Made an 8 course dinner with the help of above suspicious boyfriend. 
- Got a part-time job doing legal work, which is nice. 

Hum. That's a fairly short list, but I find it meaningful. I'm grateful for everything that's happened this year. I feel like my life is going somewhere. Slowly, maybe, as I figure stuff out. But it's definitely doing something. 
Okay, I doubt my boyfriend is a serial killer. He's more likely part-robot or something like that.
