Hey, guys! Can you believe it's 2014 already?! My fingers can't even figure out how to type that. I hope your New Year's Eve was absolutely fabulous — I know I had a lot of fun! :)
So, full disclosure, I sat down to write this a few days ago and realized that deleting my old Wordpress site was a big, big mistake. I ended up with broken images for every post pre-Blogger move, and I haven't quite completed that bit of housekeeping. It's such a pain! But it's what I get for not thinking harder about that sort of thing...so, most of my travel posts and some other things from early 2013 and all of 2012 will be out of commission for a while while I sort all of that out. What a way to start the year, eh?
But I'm here writing this with a sleeping dog on my knee, and I have to say, it was a pretty great year overall. I got to work at a Halloween store, I got a fiction piece accepted for publication at my school, I went on tons of summer adventures, I moved into my first apartment, I turned 21, I crossed the halfway mark of college (this is both good and bad, y'all, I'm not going to lie to you), and I took in so much great art, tons of tasty food, and even a few fantastic plays with lots of the people I love. There were bittersweet moments, especially my experience at the Boston Marathon bombings, but I think those have just made me love and appreciate life even more than I did before.
I also gained lots of new readers to this little blog! My most-read posts, and the ones that brought a lot of you guys my way, were my DIY Vanity and my Boston Marathon reflection. I'm also linking to a few of my favorite outfit posts, DIYs, and recipes you may have missed.
Thanks so much for riding through 2013 with me - I hope it was fun for you! Expect to see a lot more of me around here next year, and a very happy New Year to you all. :)
