new year, new places, new me

so, it's been awhile. and a lot has happened in the last eight months. i had a "early-life" crisis i guess you could call it, which all began with a mere vacation and ended with moving 1000 miles away from everyone and everything i knew; let me tell you, it wasn't the worst decision i've made in my now twenty years of life. and as i reflect back on the past year, and re-read the blogs i have post since i started this habit 13 months ago, my life has definitely changed. i'm now in a new place, both in my life and where i'm living, i now surround myself with new people, and my outlook on life is much different. and as i love it here, away from the drama of back home and in a new place, i can't help but miss the people i call family back home. i get to visit in exactly 56 days and i couldn't be more excited about anything. and as i think to what i want this new year to have in store for me, i can't help but wonder what crazy things i will fill my days with. i have no idea what the future holds for me, whether it be here, or possibly somewhere else, only time will tell but for now, i'm enjoying the ride and taking everything as it comes. here's to a new year of memories and amazing times...
