This is my obligatory “end of the year” post.
2010 is the first decade that I was alive through the entirety of and it has treated me well. Though at times things were not fully satisfying or easy, this year has been a beautiful learning experience. I turned 19, I fell in love, I sat by the beach, I moved away from home, I worked hard and I did my best to hold my head up high. The...
