Hello, 2016


"You're beautiful. Don't let anyone take that from you. Don't let you take it from yourself."
--Something my mother said to me as tears streamed down my face and everything finally clicked into place

I didn't think 2015 was a tremendous one, until I really started thinking about it. 2015 was a year of small things, that ultimately amounted to a lot. It was the year I worked the hardest I ever have. I became healthier. Dealt with my self-image issues. Made some progress with my medical anxiety. I changed a lot. Cut my hair, changed my style. Truly accepted myself, for the first time in all my life, and turned everything around. The year had it's ups and downs, but I've been happy. Oh so very happy.


(One of my projects for myself this year was a little "pick-me-up" journal. :))

I made many lovely friends this year in the blogging community, and my heartfelt thanks goes to everyone who has ever supported me, commented on this little thing of mine, or just put up with a rambling text or two. You know who you are.
I love y'all to bits. <3


So here we go-- here comes a brand new year. I hope it's spectacular.

Have a lovely New Years, and don't forget to start it off with a smile. You're fricking fantastic.

Stay street, stay alive. |-/

See you in 2016. ^-^

  2. I love you and your ranting texts and your short hair and your book-ordering problems and your vinyls and your texting me when you had no idea what to do with makeup and the Wall and your support and your shipping me with my crush. I love it all and I know you're going to have the best. 2016. Ever.
