Okay, okay…it may be 2013 already, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to reflect on 2012!
Prepare yourself for a TON of photos ::
Started out 2012 with an event that has been on the top of my bucket list for years and years. I visited South Africa for two weeks during January, and it was one of the most memorable trips I’ve ever been on…
Snatched up my first pair of Louboutins in February. For those of you who know me well, you understand just how big of a deal this was for me…

 

 

Celebrated four years with Trevor on March 18th. It’s crazy how fast time flies…
In April, we celebrated my sister’s birthday by spending time up North. It’s so much fun to get to explore different parts of the state, especially when it’s San Francisco…
Also in April, my dad and I headed out to the South to embark on a music road trip that we’ve been talking about going on for years. We hit Tennessee, Mississippi and Lousisina…and it was amazing. I’m already planning my next trip to New Orleans…
Went to my first dance in college (as a senior, whoops!)….
Gave up my title of Miss Moorpark in May. It was bittersweet, especially since I grew to love the people SO much…

 

Headed to Florida at the end of May to celebrate my grandfather’s life and lay him to rest…

 

Spent the majority of the summer working, dancing, making DIY projects and spending time with friends at home…

 

Some of my favorite shoes (and accessories!) of the year…

 

In August, we all headed down to San Diego to spend a very relaxing weekend at the Hotel Del Coronado…
In October, I turned 22 and a week later, I headed to New York to attend Teen Vogue’s Fashion U for the third time in a row…

 

In December, I graduated from college! With a 3.7 GPA! I majored in English with an emphasis in creative writing, as well as minored in performing arts…this picture was taken with my sister at my celebratory dinner the day of my last class.

Also in December, I was promoted to manager at Marciano, the store that I work at…
The last day of 2012 was spent in the snow with most of my favorite people…

 

 

2012 was SO good, but I can’t wait to see what 2013 has in store!
Happy New Year, everyone!
