Simply Misunderstood XO

Last year when I turned 25 I said my mantra for the year would be (in the words of Ariana Grande)…

“𝙞 𝙨𝙚𝙚 𝙞𝙩. 𝙞 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙞𝙩. 𝙞 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙩. 𝙞 𝙜𝙤𝙩 𝙞𝙩.”

And that’s exactly what I did. I put my focus on what I reallyyyy wanted to accomplish and was going to take control of it all. No more fooling around. Yes, I’m still young but I hit that “quarter-of-a-century” crisis mentality. Lol And so now as 26 is knocking at my door, I reflect on all I’ve done this past year….
⠀⠀
I’ve had some health struggles and my share of bad days, but I like to look at it this way — I got to walk across the graduation stage one more time to solidify all of my hard work balancing a full time job and grad school; I took a big step in my career by leaving my “big city job” and putting my masters degree to work with a new company in south Jersey; and now as I’m literally about to turn the last page of this 25th chapter of my life, I’m able to say I officially have a place of my own that I can now call “home”!
⠀⠀
I have definitely taken so many steps forward in both my professional and personal life this year; I can’t help but think what’s next!? (A love life perhaps?? 🤨😜😂) But no really, whatever happens in year 26, I’m always grateful for another birthday, another year of life, another day to LIVE on this earth! 🙏🏼 ⠀⠀

I’m looking forward to what’s to come in this next year of life! So, THANK YOU year 25! Here’s to 26! 🥂✨🥳
