2. starting the new year right by spending the 12th in the hospital after waking up at 3:30 with shooting pains in my stomach and finally calling a friend to come pick me up to drive me to the hospital. i then spent 4.5 hours there.
3. i came home one weekend and spent the day with bailey in georgetown where i bought my first sprinkles cupcake. if i remember we went for a smores one but they were out so i settled for this one, still wishing i had that smores one but none the less the cupcake i had was good. yet i'm still obsessed with georgetown for some reason...
4. like everyone else i told myself i wanted to start a healthy lifestyle (which i can say i stuck to it the whole year! may have been a little lenient during summer but still tried) i have kept working out and watching what i eat and i can happily say i'm happy with the path i'm on. i recently just bought my first size small shirt for the first time in forever the other day! :)
5. after spending valentines day with my roommate getting free drinks at a bar my dad gave me his gift that weekend when i came home. chocolate covered strawberries yumm!
6. i spent spring break in new york city with my mom and met up with my best friend a couple days where we went on a sex and the city tour, had lunch at the plaza, and had gossip girl inspired drinks at the empire hotel
7. this is where i first fell in love with hockey. i attended my first capitals game with amazing seats, out friends have season tickets 10 rows away from the ice. i love having connections. i have now become a huge hockey fan because of this game. c-a-p-s CAPS CAPS CAPS!
8. as always i went back up to iup for IUPatty's weekend. it was probably one of the best weekends at IUP (besides homecoming of course)
9. easter weekend i spent with just my dad and i while my mom and sister were in florida for lacrosse. since it was just my dad and i we decided to go look at some bulldogs! this is the day my dad became obsessed with getting another dog, and if i might add i don't hate it.
10. i went to my first ever JMU hosted concert and it was macklemore. to this day still one of the best concerts i have ever been too! he is an amazing performer and puts on an amazing show.
11. the best roommate i have ever had graduated last semester! i'm so proud of her and the rando roommate we got is nowhere as amazing as her! ps. she just got engaged on christmas!!!!!!
12. i went to my first ever nationals game, needless to say it was miserable and boring. i never want to attend another baseball game in my lifetime.
13. when i moved to the beach this summer the first week was spent with 2 friends from IUP. needless to say it was the start to a very interesting summer filled with a ton of highs and lows
14. after a week of being spoiled by my friends who cooked for me almost every day they visited i finally had to cook on my own again. i cooked my first steak this summer! i made a steak with sweet potato fries and green beans, it was a great meal.
15. this summer was filled with plenty of firsts! i paddle boarded for the first time, its definitely hard and an amazing work out. i also learned how to skurf, extremely proud of myself.
16. we got a truck this year (my family finally listened to me) and i drove it on the beach almost every day i could. it was the best decision my family has made in awhile
17. dear sunshine crepes, you make the best crepes i have ever had. keep doin' you. as the summer was winding down i had to get my last crepe of the summer
18. this picture was from my last trip to the beach, it was also that last summer i will be living and working at the beach *brb as i cry*
19. i came home from the beach early to take a quick (but not at all quick) bus ride up to nyc for the night to take my friend to his ring dance for the merchant marine academy. it was... interesting and it is definitely a story for the books
20. i went to my first ever washington redskins game with a couple of friends. it was a lot of fun with a ton of memories. i swear this year was the year of sports, i went to almost every possible washington team sporting event for the first time this year
21. this semester i started to get into my groove at JMU and making great connections with new friends. i surprisingly only went to a few JMU football games this season.
22. i found a new love for printmaking. although i had many sleepless nights because of this class i wish i knew about this earlier. i'm taking an advanced class next semester just for fun
23. i also made the most brilliant decision to join the art honors fraternity, kappa pi. i'm pretty mad at myself for not joining earlier. i have the best big ever and am a triplet! one of my triplets is my best friend :)
24. i surprisingly went to a keith urban concert during the winter, i never allow myself to listen to country music unless its the summer. i also went to a ton of other concerts this winter including, mistletoe madness and jingle ball where i got to see some of my favorite artists such as backstreet boys, gavin degraw, fall out boy, and miley cyrus. i also went to WMZQ at the beginning of the summer
25. at the beginning of this winter break my car was in need for some fixing up. it was so bad it was to the point where my dad almost threw in the towel on marvin (my car) but seeing as we just got a paint job for him my dad decided it was worth fixing him up! i almost cried when i found out i wouldn't be getting him back so when i did the first thing to do was hug him
going back through my instagram brought back a ton of memories. i didn't realize how much of my life i actually documented through instagram. i had an amazing 2013 filled with lots of memories. bring it on 2014!
Sounds like you had a great year. I wish you all the best in 2014. Love your photos !
