2024.

 We are well into February now but I feel like I've never really reflected on the past year and how I felt about it. I'm not gonna get all crazy or anything but 2024 was such an interesting year!

I usually don't make new year's resolutions because I fear I'm too wishy washy for that. I like to just go with the flow and see what happens. And I literally had no idea 2024 would go the way it did and ya know what I'm quite pleased with the outcome.

The one thing I really wanted for myself last year was my license. I didn't want to turn 20 without it. And it happened! Do you know how satisfying it is to achieve a goal you've been wanting to complete for so long?

I also switched my major to something completely unrelated to my previous one. I still wonder whether I made the right choice or not, but I feel like I did in a way. It's opened so many opportunities for me already and I kinda like what I'm doing. I don't like to have many regrets but I'd say I wish I made the switch sooner! Changing my major I got more involved with school and I joined even more orgs and I feel so fulfilled being so involved! I love being a resource and being included.

I made many new friends and got closer with a few existing ones. I love this for me because for a while I felt like I haven't belonged in many of my spaces so it felt good to enter 2025 with people I can truly be happy with. I struggle with having a sense of belonging and it sucks feeling alone when you're surrounded by so many individuals. That's why I'm grateful for these bonds. These people keep me grounded which is something I appreciate. Community is so important to me because sometimes we are all we have. I also just enjoy talking all the time. 

2024 did get really ugly for me at a point but ya know we ball and I feel like I learned so much about myself and in a way I guess I needed those situations to happen. 

Overall, I feel like it was a really good year for me. Last January I said 2024 was the year of the Leo, and while it did feel like it, it wasn't the year of the Leo in the way I wanted it to be. I am confident in 2025 being the year of the Leo instead, and 2024 kinda just laid the foundation for that.

I wouldn't have appreciated everything I have now if I had it then.

I'm Always Learning

The past few weeks have been a little crazy for me. Like guys, what is going on fr. I take a really long time to process my feelings about anything. And these past three weeks I feel like I've been in a daze, but I think it's because I've been neglecting how I feel for the sake of being in the moment. But now that those moments are over and I'm reflecting on them I'm realizing so much. I've loved, I've lost, but most importantly I learned!!! I know all of this still doesn't make sense but bear with me I swear I'm making a point here.  I don't have many regrets in this life because I really do look at every situation as a learning opportunity, even if it doesn't end in my best interest. I think I learned some of my best lessons when I unfortunately went through a hellish situation.  Anyway, I'm not super good at transitioning my thoughts sometimes but here are some lessons I learned from September: - Sometimes the right moment is quite lit...

Navigating Feeling Lost

A reoccurring sentence I've been hearing recently is "Leo you can't have it all figured out, and that's okay".  Since November I've been feeling tremendously lost about life. My career direction, my identity, my wants and needs. Literally everything about Leo was confusing Leo. I journaled about it, I did so many self-assessments because I just wanted an answer. I wanted to know. I wanted to know that I was on the right path I wanted to know I was making the right decision and I wanted to trust both of those things. I asked for advice from so many people. My peers, my boss, my therapist and they all kind of told me the same thing: make a decision that makes sense for now. But I didn't know what I wanted for now. I just needed something. A sign that I was doing the right things, a sign that I needed to change something.  What if those signs I was looking for were the signs all along? I can't 100% predict that every decision I make now will land me exact...

2025.

February 3rd 2025 I started my blog. It was a very random idea that I surprised myself with. What makes me even more surprised is the fact that I stuck with it.  So because it's my one year of having this blog let's talk about 2025! The year of the snake. I told a friend that I felt like I just gained another form of consciousness this year because of like everything I learned so far. It was such an interesting year for me, in a good way and in a bad one. I feel like this year I tapped into my creative bag and really worked on showing people what I'm capable of. I started selling my jewelry, I got into some art exhibitions, started my blog, and I started DJing. I've always felt like I couldn't be put into a box and I was capable of doing so many things and honing so many talents and skills. I feel like this year really showed that. This year was also ridiculously busy. I worked a lot. Like so much. Whether it be schoolwork, job work, or just personal work. A lot of ...
