2015.

Holy cats, that year put me through the ringer. I had the best, most magical, Looking up at the Moon and Thinking About How Lucky You Are time of my life immediately followed by a terrible, Crying into Your Ice Cream summer. I still can't believe they happened in the same year. The whiplash was too real. What can I say? I loved, I lost, I lived to like-like again.

But the thing is, I have never felt myself change that much. 2015 made me sadder, wiser, gayer and I wouldn't have it any other way.

2016.

So here we stand on the threshold of a new year. Who am I kidding? We're all ready in it two days, give or take and I have a good feeling about this year!

This year I really want to focus on pushing myself. I have become to complacent with who I was, and the tail end of 2015 really showed me that. I have a lot of potential and I just want to Get Good. Like, real Good. Like, I'm proud to be this person Good. The long and short of it is that I want to become the type of person I want me to be. I want to be better read, I want to be outgoing, I want to be bolder, I want to be kinder, I want to smile more and make other people smile more.

I think I can do it.

I also have a LOT to look forward to this year! I have an internship this semester, I'm going to MY FIRST FURRY CON (FWA), I'm going to finish off my community college career (good riddance) with my associates in Business Management and I'm transferring into a university come the fall! And that's not even counting all the MOVIES coming out too! And people I'm going to meet and dogs I'm going to pet and adventures I'm going to go on!

I'm really excited and I hope that you're excited too.

This is going to be one hell of a year, I promise!

I love you,
Marlowe
