Happy 2015!!

I know everyone is saying this, but seriously, WHERE DID YOU GO, 2014!! I miss you! Does every year go faster as you get older? I only just got used to writing 2014. :-)

It's come around super fast and it's going to be one exciting year. I'm going to high school, and I've never set foot in a classroom before. And now I'm going to a school with 1400 students. Yikes. But I want to learn lots and grow in different ways and still make time for my hobbies and most importantly, grow in my relationship with God. He's shown and taught me so much this year and I know this year is going to be just as amazing. One thing I've learned is that people may let you down but God never does. He never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. I've become more aware of His hand in my life and I believe He is testing me by throwing me these changes. And I'm really, really excited. I thought I'd post some photos not just from this year but from past years too. Always good for a laugh;-)

Okay, so I've grown out of dressing up......well, not quite;-)

the two-year-old!! I mean, he was born, like, yesterday.

I did heaps of things last year that I've never done before. I went to a youth camp, I had my hair cut in a concave bob (it's grown out now), I did two exams over four days, had knee surgery, countless sleepovers with that blonde person and my sister (insane things. went to her place, then went out to another friend's party, got back to E's house and watched Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. At eleven o'clock.) Watched fireworks on Ems' birthday, Built a barricade in Bff's rumpus room and slept in it. Went stargazing and camped out, ate way too much candy. actually, I've eaten way too much candy this year. Went to the movies to celebrate the anniversary of our friendship. Turned 16, wrote a book, started two more. Changed my blog look. Discovered Studio C. Professed my faith before our congregation. Discovered and fell in love with Les Miserables and the Hunger Games, (books and movies) and consequently became less afraid of writing sad and scary. Performed at a brass band concert. Came up with silly nicknames for just about everyone I know. Ems is Elimelech. Lukie is Lucas Skywalker. BFF is Miss Flimsy, Captain America, Blondie and who knows what else. Oh yes, and we discovered Star Wars. Learned the art of fangirling and discovered Eragon. Not a lot of really exciting things, but I'm sure more are in the future.

Sorry for subjecting you to all that. ;-) Okay, your turn. Tell me what you guys all got up to last year and what your plans are for this one.
