Another year is gone and what have I learned?
Well, I learned about many amazing dramas, I learned that going back to college after taking a break is possible, and you can still be amazing at it. I learned that life is insanely short so we must live each day to the best of our abilities. I have lost many people I know this year, and one woman who was like a second mother to me. Life is hard and not fair, but things must happen for a reason, even if it means losing someone in the process.
I’ve learned that we must grow stronger from our experiences instead of wallowing in them. I’ve also learned that no matter how old we get, it is always good to keep some of those youthful hobbies in our lives in order to stay sane, normal, and ourselves. I’ve learned that I should never be ashamed of liking something different, or being afraid to let my freak flag fly.
But in this new year, there are many things I want to accomplish and I hope to use this as a contract to follow my goals, and make them come true.
There are quite a few things I would like to do this year so I will sort them out in categories as I see fit.

Ok so maybe it’s not that long of a list, but they are some long term goals that I hope to achieve by the end of 2017. Another big one is to save money, and get organized because after moving over 3 years ago, I am still not completely organized. Nothing is where I want it and as I live here, my crafting supplies seems to only be growing.
My life is still a bit hectic, and I only expect it to become more hectic, so I hope you all will bear with me and hopefully we will be able to get through this year together!
