Obligatory reflection of weird 2013
2013 was weird. I can’t even believe I used to be a student at WCC earlier in the year and I couldn’t be happier that I was able to find my place at Purchase this past fall. Not only was I lucky enough to love my new school, but I was/am lucky enough to be attending the same college as my best friend who I met in my old school (Dylan), and everything has just come full circle. I’ve rekindled old, and meaningful friendships with friends that I love so much and even made some new friends, who are sweet and pretty awesome. Looking back on a whole year kind of freaks me out, 365 days seems a lot smaller when you think about them all as a whole. I feel like at the start of last year I was such a different human being than I am now. I’m so much more positive and self aware. I’m less insecure and happy with who I am. I feel so lucky to be surrounded by people who love and care about me, as do I about them. I feel so lucky to have experienced so many things with Dylan in the past 365 days. Whether it was cuddling and watching a show for hours, going to a stupid party of some sort and making bad decisions or going to a concert together. It was all just amazing and I’m so grateful. I’m so happy and excited that the very last bit of this year brought me closer to my current boyfriend, John. Just these past couple months have been so awesome and I can’t even imagine how much fun 2014 is going to be. I feel like everything is just good. Today marks the first day of this amazing new year and I can’t wait to see what it has in store for myself and everyone around me.
