Hi guys! I guess this is my first post of the year. This year is going to be amazing, scary, thrilling, and a year of a lot of firsts. Some are good, most are great, there only might be the possibility of one thing that is sad and will be really hard if it happens.

I’m going to Africa. How amazing is that! It’s for missions; I’m going with Canadian Food for the Hungry. Life changing and my view of the world will be transformed. I am definitely going being open to transformation. I really don’t think there’s a point in going if you’re not open to it.

Shots!! For the first time since I was four! And like, 3or 4. Yikes!

I’m auditioning for the U of S and hopefully Brandon. I don’t know for sure, but that’s my goal. Brandon might not happen this year but if it doesn’t I really would like to go next year. We’ll see.

Working as a full-time lifeguard. I’m crazy but I’m just adding more responsibility to my life.

I could move away if I go to Brandon. Sad and hard but good for me too. I will leave the “nest” per say and learn to survive on my own. Literally alone because I would be in a different city.

Most importantly, in July I guess I stopped grieving or found myself or I don’t really know how to explain it. But I haven’t sunk to the dark state I was in for so long last year. Up and down like that, I haven’t felt that since then.

I’m going into this year with a lot more confidence than last year. I believe in myself more than ever. And it’s because of God. He’s been my everything. My all. And I realized so much that He is faithful. I love Him. Things get tough but no one can be there for me and be strong for me like Him.

Thank you to all my awesome friends. I love you guys. You’ll never know how much you mean to me. I know I haven’t been around a lot but I still think about all of you a lot.

I need to go now but I really wanted to write that. peace out everyone!
