Every new year, my sister asks her friends and family (so that would include me, ha ha) to list their top 3 memories of the past year.
Last year, every "top" memory of mine involved food... Luckily, 2014 had a little more variety!
March 24, 2014: I got into Rice. What a feeling, what a feeling. I don't know if I can duplicate that mixture of surprise, elation, and gratitude.

Hawaii with Jennifer (8/5/14-8/12/14): My sister gifted me with a trip to Hawaii for my graduation/18th birthday present–all paid for by her (perks of having a sibling who works?). It was a true vacation, and quite the bonding experience!

Rice University, October-ish/November-ish: Settling into college can be disconcerting, but getting into the groove of things is incredibly gratifying and elating. I think this was around the time my roommate and I really became closer (then again, I'm pretty terrible at estimating time), which was an integral part of my first semester. It helped a lot that the weather began to level out and lose that awful humidity characteristic of the Texas summer.
Coming home was a lovely feeling, though :) I really appreciate NorCal for what it is!
Happy New Year!
