Looking back on 2014, I'd have to say it was pretty great. From a horrendous winter (weather wise) to a spring filled with final moments in ACESJU, a summer spanning miles from mountains to seas and then a fall living the city life in Philly, its been quite the journey.
2015 will be a big year. Not only will it be the first year where I will not be in school at all, but it is the big 2-5. While I don't want to make a big deal out of it, my mom always says that 25 was one of her favorite years, a year where she was living the city life, working, dating my dad and being a young 20-something in the city. There is no pressure for 25 to be a year for the record books, but I'm excited to see what it has in store for me :)
So a look back on 2014, through the lens of my instagram: (warning: photo heavy!)
