Hi everyone!
New year, new blog!
2019, was such a good year for me. From enjoying my last full year of college, going abroad in Rome during Spring Break, you can see part 1 and part 2! making countless memories with friends, graduating college, and starting a new job. It was an incredible journey. With all the highs and great moments, there was also a lot of hard work, perseverance, and support to help me achieve all these goals.
One of the biggest things that I took away from this year was the people. In life, people come into our lives at different times and for different reasons, whether it’s for our whole lives, a few years, or even a few months, people enter our lives and make an impact no matter how big or small it is. As people, we can always learn something from others and they can always learn something from us. I met so many people from friends, classmates, professors, and faculty who made an impact on me in small and big ways. I can’t wait to see where this new season of life takes me.
Speaking of the new season of life, not only is it a new year, but it’s also a new decade. I have so much hope for this new journey in life and I can’t wait to see where it takes me. I always come up with a motto or a word of the year and this year is no different.
Going into 2020, my phrase of the year is going to be…LEARN and LOVE. With a new job I am planning on taking everything in and learning about this new job, new role in life, and learning about myself navigating adulthood. I also am planning on loving myself, my work, my family, my friends and my life. Too often, do I find myself getting caught up in being too busy that I forget how incredible life is. This year I plan on learning and loving and enjoying where I am in life.
I hope are ready to take on a new year and all it has to offer. What are your phrases or words for the upcoming year?
