Last Post in 2013

Below is a Illustration I did for my grandma with my Wacom Pad. I thought I would include it in a post for you guys to see. She wanted a green dress but I didn't have as many options for colors in my Copic program for green as this royal blue. The black lace is supposed to be a shawl because my grandma wanted something to 'cover her arms' So I did a black lace shawl.

I don't know how to sum up 2013. I still have 2 hours left of it but I am ready for it to be ending. It was filled with good things, bad things, new experiences, laughter, tears, new beginnings, and endings. 

I graduated high school. Went to prom with my best friend, took a road trip to North Carolina with him (prom date/ love / best friend a girl could ask for). Worked a second year at the Drive In. Traveled across the United States to Idaho for a week, had my wisdom teeth out, started college, survived my first set of midterms and finals. Decided to pick up a minor. Showed some of my fashion illustrations here on my blog. Cut my long hair off. 

So many things happened in 2013.  

& Let's just say that I am super excited for 2014. It will be full of so many new opportunities and fun things for me. I hope to continue expanding my blog and writing for all of you guys- Thanks for being here for me in 2013.   I really appreciate it. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful (and safe) night, and a fantastic start to a new year! 

Oh- also here are my 2014 resolutions. I found this list on pintrest and to be honest it sums up what I want to accomplish in 2014. I feel like my list is generally the same every year but keeping it simple this is my resolution list for 2014:

2014 Resolutions

1. Get More Sleep

2. Drink More Water

3. Get More Exercise

4. Read More

5. Get More Organized

6. Clean More Often

7. Explore More

8. Relax More

9. Have More Patience

10. Forget Doing 'More'

Just Try Your Best. 

2014 will be full of wonderful things. Starting a second semester at University, going to France in May ( I get to ride a train from the airport to Paris! How thrilling is that!!) , hopefully getting a different job this summer, not to mention my 19th birthday (my last year as a teenager). 

I've also had some off and on's via relationships in 2013. I won't share to many details but I have decided that I'm just going to stop looking for a guy and just let it happen however it's supposed to happen. I won't go searching, I will let it happen naturally.  

Welcome 2014. 

XOXO
