The New One

Recently my boyfriend and I were talking about what we're  most excited about in the upcoming year, 2012. We figured out that there's one time of the year 2012 that we can't wait to come around: summer. Not (only) because of sunshine, swimmingpools, tan skin, barbecue, vacation, ice cream and long nights but for multiple reasons that will make my summer of 2012 a special one:

• I am going to (finally, finally, finally!) graduate from college prep school
• Sophie's coming home
• I will start University
• I'm going to move out - to town
• I am going to do a serious summer job for the first time
• all my final-exam-stress will be over
• we're going on a family vacation, just the 4 of us, which is something we haven't done in a while
• I will get some space for myself

I think these are plenty of good reasons and far enough changes to be excited about. Of course i'm a little worried too, especielly about all the stuff I've gotta do until summer comes around (which is still quite a long time... )

Anyway, before I wanna go into the details of my plans for next year too much I would like to share a picture of an unforgetably glamourous new years eve, downtown Zürich, right by the lake, with great people, good champaign, an exclusive locatoin and a stunningly beautiful firework:

I didn't take this picture, cuz sadly all my picures are kinda blurry and this may give you a better expression of what Zürich's like on new years eve. (picture:www.storchen.ch)

Anyway: Happy, belatet New Year!
