2013 has been quite the year.
I remember my last quote of 2013 being "Maybe it's not my weekend, but it's gonna be my year". And that's exactly what 2013 has been for me.
From bringing in the new year with my uncle Daniel and my future aunt Summer,
To my best friend Alex taking me to the Justin Bieber concert,
To being on the TV show "Nashville" - not once- but TWICE,
from being in a short film written and directed by Karen Carlson with the famous Tom Skerritt,
to getting my wisdom teeth removed and then going back from bone fragments removal as well,
to the hard and difficult work as a DECA officer in 2013- but saying goodbye to my DECA team and passing on my title with tears,
having quite the trip to Nashville with my best girls from Anytime Fitness,
to traveling to Los Angeles to audition for school- getting in the class- and meeting the most amazing people I could have ever crossed paths with that taught me so much about life and love and family and the craft within so little time of being with the beautiful people,
to chopping off my long blonde hair AND dying it auburn,
getting representative t shirts and episodes from "Bluff" series that I did in Canada,
had my first AND second interview as an actress on my career and future plans,
had the best last summer with my amazing friends,
My step sister Lily graduated pre-k and my step mom Tara finished her teaching degree,
My mom's best friend Amanda found out she was having a little girl and then also giving birth to the most beautiful angel I have ever laid eyes on (I think she's even prettier than me, and that's saying A LOT- haha see I can be funny),
To saying goodbye to the only place and people I've ever known,
to driving across the United States without stopping,
to beginning an adventure all on my own thousands of miles away from "home",
going back to my acting school and meeting more amazing people,
started working in sales at LA Fitness,
made some of the best friends along the way,
working on a web series called the "Disorganized Zone",
started going to the largest bible study ever- which is not the LA branch of The City Church out of Seattle, WA and got closer to God than I could have ever imagined myself being,
met my best friend in the entire world Mary Jewels,
got promoted to management at LA Fitness,
carved pumpkins, went to haunted houses, and had work halloween parties,
spent my first thanksgiving away from home with two of the best sisters in the world Mary and Margo (missing Maurie),
went to a fantastic Christmas at the Grove Tree Lighting Ceremony with a free concert from Gavin DeGraw, Jewel, Mary J Blige, etc,
got promoted to another gym as management in the LA Fitness world,
had a lot of great adventures!
packed up my best friend for West Tennessee,
went back to Tennessee to visit for Christmas,
dyed my hair back blonde,
reunited with the best friends and family,
came back to my current home in Los Angeles,
and going to end 2013 with someone special <3
