It's already December and this year has entirely flown by in a snap of a finger. Like many people, so much has happened this year that I'm in awe with all that I've grown from January 2016 to now. It has almost been a year since I graduated from Georgia Tech and taken a full step into real time adulthood. No more beach filled spring breaks or any of that empty bank account syndrome that most college students suffer through.
I started my new job a month after graduation in a city without my family and the little group of friends I had, moved away to start their new jobs while exploring their new cities. This left me alone in the amazing city of Atlanta with no one to explore with - and no, I'm not the type to easily make friends. I decided that despite my lack of company, I will try to make the best of my situation. So to speed up this reflective moment, here are a couple of pictures that represent a glimpse of the many positives of 2016:
On that note, I'm taking this month of December to gear up for 2017. This year I tasted the bests and the worst of what we call adulthood. Now that I know what to expect, I plan to take the reigns of 2017 and gallop straight to my goals. For the month of December, every Friday - or hopefully no later than Sunday - I will share some of my goals and how I plan to accomplish them.

It's been a week since the end of my relationship. I was able to follow my 4-Step Guide, but like any human being, I did have a day where I reverted back to a crying confused mess. I resorted to praying and writing, which helped immensely. It all reminded me that God has a plan. Everything that happens is for a reason and God will bring all the best to you. Just pray and continue to have faith.
