A tribute to 2012 courtesy of my iPhone.

It's happening! It's happening!

She's back in the blogging world everybody!

And the grand idea is to give you a year in review- all with pictures from my phone, some instagramed and others plain. Bo-ring.

Anywho.

Get Ready:

Ah, January. I am now the proud owner of an iphone and a large box of my very most favorite food in the world. Popcorn.

Sweet February. The month in which I turned 21 and my sister came for a visit. We celebrated by going to Cozy Noodle (must eat, if you're in Chicago). 

March was interesting. Two weeks on the road with the women's choir. Visited British Columbia, Seattle, Spokane. And this small town where they have a dandelion festival. 

April was a good month. I wore this dress twice-- in one weekend! Went to a school banquet and then to a wedding the day after. 

"Wow!" says you, "Rachel! What happened?" We were playing a game in which I fell from the shoulders of my friend who is six feet tall. Conveniently landed on my thumb. Happy April! When I called my mum to tell her she said, "I hope you're not in a cast for our trip to Florida..." 
I wasn't in a cast. I'm also not pictured in this picture since I had massive diarrhea for half of our family trip (TMI? Remember whose blog you're reading. They don't call me "Curry Pits" for nothing...)
 In May we took our first family vacation in 11 years!

Then off I went to North Carolina to work at the best place on earth. Camp Greystone.

Then July came and I had a weekend off so I went and snuggled with my gorgeous cousins (once removed?) They're the daughters of my cousin Eli and his wife Susy. I don't know what our relationship is technically. But they are delicious.

You've seen this picture. Family is reunited again in SoCal for the Wedding of our dear friends Sarah and Mark!

And by September, I live here. This is the view from my room.  I am a lucky duck.

Meanwhile, I nannied for the WORLDS CUTEST CHILDREN. Seriously. SERIOUSLY.

Oh, and lest we forget the grandest adventure of the year: A segway tour of Chicago.
As you can guess, I'm a natural on that thing.

Best part of the year? David put a ring on it! I should clarify: David, my brother, proposed to Alyssa (his girlfriend) and she said yes! Happy November!

And December. A really strange picture of me my dear friend Simone at Chicago's hidden gem: Taco Veloz! 

So, there we go blogging world!
Here's to 2012. I'm ready to come back now.
