The Beginning of the Rest of my Life: A Memoir

I'm a 23 year old, banker living the EDM lifestyle in Seattle. Cars, photography, mixology enthusiast. Raise your glass and let's begin the next chapter together!

The things that happen when I've been on #XboxLive all afternoon and have decided against putting pants on and being an adult... #DeliverySavesMyLife #ImHidingOutInMyRoom #GamerProblems #XboxLife #XboxOneElite

[aahicks1991]

Come play #DestinyTheTakenKing with me! I'm still learning but am having a fun time! GamerTag: Apex Princess #XboxOneElite #XboxLife

Getting to hangout with a long time friend today has been a blessing for sure; and meeting her little miracle, Scarlett Jane, for the first time. I'm so blessed to have this girl in my corner even when we're both busy with our own lives. #SeperatedAtBirth #ShesASisterIChose

Currently listening to this track on soundcloud and jamming the hell out! If you need something to getting you going today, you need this! Gotta keep it local with my boys #AMF who are killing the game here in #Seattle! #seattlenightlife

Finally got my #XboxOneElite up on the WiFi after having to troubleshoot the hell out of it... now, waiting for #DestinyTheTakenKing to finish syncing and I'm off and shooting! #PunIntended #GamerProblems

Getting my new 32 inch #Vizio TV and #XboxOneElite set up and updated! Now, all I have to do is wait... and right now, all I want to do is play #DestinyTheTakenKing #gamergirl #GamerProblems #WhyMustUpdatesTakeForever

So... this happened last night! Guess I'm gonna be a xbox gamer girl! Anyone want to play Destiny with me? I'm still learning but I'm loving the game play 😄 #gamer #gamergirl #XboxLife #XboxOneElite #BestGiftEver #WhenCanIStartStreamingOnTwitch

As I sit here tonight in the other living room, I can hear you giggling and acting like you did with me. You told me that you would always be there for me, never leave, and you would hold my hand until we were old. After finding the messages to her, about wanting to have a family with her and move forward with her as your partner, I don't know what to think. I don't know what to think about all of those things you said to me. I tried to give you a family, only to find out that I physically can't. I try to be my old self you loved so much, only to find out I'm not good enough. I try and be supportive, and I don't get the same in return. Why was I so stupid to think that you could love someone and not use them when that is all you've ever done to anyone that cares about you.

Find someone who wants to invest in you, learn from you, see you win, support your visions and fall in love with you daily.

I'm #blessed to have people in my life that would turn me into human #Sushi if I'm sad or in a funk.

#DealershipLife

Walk into work and get told I need to be spoken to by my manager... first of all, this guy is a dick. Second of all, I hope he gets deported. Third of all, I'm not even on the property when everything happens. I think I need a more creative job, something that inspires me instead of freaking out.

[aahicks1991]

Got to cruise around with this guy today! God I am so lucky to be best friends with one of my roommates.
