2018 - What's To Come?

I truly think time goes faster and faster as the days and months and years go on. I can't believe it's already January 6th....
Two days ago my internship with the best company ever came to an end and I had to move my life out of my apartment that I've been living in for the past 6 months. I'm still in the sunshine state for a couple more days, (even though the "sunshine state" has been 40 degrees or colder the past few days) and it's a bittersweet feeling about leaving. I love this state and all of the wonderful memories, opportunities, and friendships it's brought me, but I am excited to go back home for about a week and a half before heading back to Virginia for the spring semester. (But if you know me, you know I'll be back to visit Florida real soon).

2017 was insane. Honestly something I wouldn't have ever dreamed of happening. From the trips and memories, to the people I've met and grown relationships with, to school and internships, it was absolutely unreal. Shall we do a quick 2017 recap?

• I completed my sophomore year of school.
• I went on the most spontaneous spring break trip to Florida, visiting a new city every day, traveling up and down both coasts of Florida.
• Numerous trips throughout the year visiting my favorite city, NYC.
• Watched A LOT of sunsets all over the country (and saw some of the best I've ever seen in my entire life).
• Took a lot of spontaneous trips (whether they're just road trips an hour away or flying across the country).
• Walked in my school's fashion show.
• Collaborated with some really cool companies.
• Before 2017 I was never off of the east coast, by the end of 2017 I ended up taking a total of 4 trips to California. (First was the legendary trip to Palm Springs with Victoria's Secret where I met some of my best pals!!! Second was my crazy trip all over Cali - San Fran to San Diego - with my best friend Kayla. Third & fourth were to visit my bff Justine!!)
• Went to a lot of concerts - including my first music festival.
• Got to work for WALT DISNEY WORLD!!!!
• Lived in one of the four locations in this country that are on my bucket list (NYC, Florida, California, Hawaii).
• My motto of the year was "growing & learning" and I stuck to those words all throughout 2017.

2018 you've got some high expectations. Heres's just a few of them:

• Travel outside of the country.
• Live by my new motto of 2018: Revival & Growth. Revival - to make alive again. An awakening. God revives so that we might thrive. I believe growth is something that is always needed, because we can continue to always grow in God's grace and knowledge. Am I more like Him in my attitude, beliefs, and actions? Am I farther along in my journey?
  
• Fly in a helicopter. 
• Continue living my spontaneous lifestyle and travel more to new places.
• Capture more photos and videos.
• Build new relationships, grow more in existing ones.
• Watch more sunrises/sunsets.

Continue along on my adventures this year by staying up to date with all I have to post here, and my other social media accounts. Have recommendations on places I should visit, things I should do/experience, etc? Email or message me! Would love to hear your ideas!
