Happy New Year, lovelies!
As I put this post together, I went through a lot of memories. I read through a lot of sad posts, especially the music. I can’t promise the sad songs will stop though.
It’s crazy how fast this year has passed. I guess when you’re busy traveling the world and meeting up with people, things go by a lot quicker. Also having a job that you enjoy helps.
As always, a recap of the last year with links to the posts in reference. If anything, a quick scroll of old pictures to jog that noggin.
