Growing in 2015
4:13:00 PM It blows my mind at just how fast each year goes by. It feels as if it is still April and I am cramming for my last final exams until I graduate, but its some how January 2016. Looking back at 2015, the year was nothing like what I had anticipated. I learned and grew so much over the past year and made a lot of changes, and I wouldn't have changed a thing. I can't wait to see what 2016 will bring and the new adventures I will go on.
Looking back at 2015, I rang in the new year with one of my closest friends and we just chilled and watched movies. We didn't go party like everyone else our age. I can still remember the resolutions I made, which looking back on it was so cringe worthy because they are ones that everyone makes like eat healthy and loose weight, of course I didn't achieve them. January was the month were I would get back into my routine of being in school Monday to Friday, and working 5 days a week. It was difficult the stress of work and school was hard as this was my last semester before I graduated and my marks really did matter, I had to bring up my GPA. I wouldn't change a thing because I quickly learned how to manage my time and I started to learn who my real friends are. This was my life until later April when exams were over. In May I graduated University and I don't think I have ever been so proud of myself because school was a real struggle for me, those nights of staying up until 5am to finish a paper or staying up late studying paid off. I am also so thrilled to have graduated with a friend that I have gone to school with my entire life.
The summer in general was difficult for me, I started to learn who my true friends were. I didn't like that I was drifting away from people because my friends were my comfort blanket. I learned who truthfully was there for me and who wasn't. To be honest this couldn't have come at a more better time because changes were happening in my personal life. I hate change and I mean HATE it, I'm terrified of trying new things but I had to be the better person and accept what was happening.
The fall was different then normal for me because I wasn't in school, and this is the first time that I haven't been in school my entire life and found it so different. All of a sudden I didn't know the days of the week because my work schedule is all over the place and I have no real routine. I'm still trying to figure this routine thing out currently but it will come with time.
The year ended on a positive note, I know now who my true friends are. I can go to them about anything. This year has had a lot of ups and downs but I wouldn't change it for anything. I can't wait to see what 2016 has to bring, lets just hope not a tone of change.
