I know this picture is horrendous, but it’s from last night’s drive home - crossing over the Golden Gate for the first time. Been waiting for that for a long, long time. 

2011: In Review.

This was a post of mine from almost exactly 3 years ago…one of my first Tumblr posts actually. A photo taken from my room in my dad’s house where I lived at the time…the snowy streets of downtown Portsmouth. It’s crazy to think how much I’ve done since this time. I moved into an apartment with two of my friends, started dating Chris Hayes, graduated from college, got my first non-seasonal job, got an apartment with Chris, best-friended Kina, visited California with Chris twice, went skiing in Utah, went to Mexico, went to France, moved into my mom’s house to save up money, moved across the country. Life is crazy. It goes so slow but so fast at the same time. I may be having sort of a difficult time adjusting to living out here, but I am so so happy with where I’m at in life right now. I love my boyfriend incomprehensible amounts, I love that we’re living in California like we’ve seriously been talking about for six or seven years (not exaggerating, and no we weren’t even dating then but we were friends and both just wanted to move to CA and we talked about it all the time and now we’re freaking here. Together. And it’s awesome. I’ll never get over that.), and I love that we are doing something that’s great for ourselves and challenging ourselves and learning a lot and experiencing a lot. I’m happy.
