New Years Eve

Obviously I haven't blogged in months.. maybe I'll start again.

My life in 2012...

I completed a road trip across country from Boston to Arizona, lived with my mom and little sister (probably for the last time in my life), completed my 2nd year of college, moved out with Shelby to our own apartment, I turned 20, went to Vegas with my grandma, went to NY to visit family, made new friends, and learned a lot along the way. I have accomplished things I never thought I could and I have surprised myself in a lot of ways.

My life in 2013... my resolutions are pretty simple this year and they don't involve losing weight (because that's always on my mind) or to quit smoking (because I was smart enough to never start in the first place)

I want to push myself to accomplish things and learn not to settle. I want to continue to make new friendships and build on old ones. I want to travel more and see the world. I'd like to stop stressing out on things that are out of my control. I'd love to spend more quality time with my family because I have realized I tend to distance myself a lot. I'd like to take more time out for myself, whether it's hiking more or just going out with friends. I would like to try and say 'Yes' to situations, rather than immediately shutting situations (and people) out of my life. And lastly, I'd like to appreciate the little things in life. I guess I would like to simply enjoy life more.

To me, life is about moments. You remember the moment you graduated high school or the moment you moved out on your own. I want to have more monumental moments in my life and cherish them more than I have in the past.

I truly think 2013 is going to be the best year of my life and I embrase it with open arms.
AND I TURN 21 IN 2013! 

So lets raise a glass to the bright New Year! Cheers! 

And here's some photos of my year!

 Pictures are out of order and I don't care :)
