goodbye, 2014

 



Dear 2014,

We've been through a lot, haven't we? It's been a very long year...a good year, but a hard year. Thanks for the tell-me-a-story days, for teaching me a thing or two about first impressions, and for showing me how to embrace the moment. I learned a lot.

Thanks for introducing me to Sherlock, and the insanity that is fandom. Thanks for the road trips, the poetry, and helping me to discover who I am. (although maybe next time the whole learning and growing and stuff could have been done without the teenage angst and tears, okay? That would have been nice.)

Thanks for good music (one, two, three) and skype chats with my besties and wonderful friends.

It's been....an adventure.

 xx
Olivia

    Great review! I've only been following you for a couple of months, so I'm going to check out some of the older posts you highlighted. Your blog is lovely, and I can't wait for more posts this year. (-:

    I love this, and I love how you linked back to past posts. It's been a very full year for you, huh? I totally relate - angst and tears and all. Bleh. Have a great 2015, girl!

      It was a full year, yeah. good and bad. :p Oh well. But as the boys at my high school like to say, eesh tush! (it means, "it is what it is." Eloquent, I know.)

      And I have already seen a few Who episodes...and am in love with Matt Smith, yay! I'll keep you posted. *definitive nod*
