Another year has passed me by again... Well, not quite! I'm definitely beating the next year to a punch by posting a week in advance about 2015 for me in a nutshell!

Last year I went in saying that I spent the new year bringing it in alone. This year I'll probably doing the same damn thing this year! LOL. I've gotten to the point where in my life going out is not a necessity. Plus I can't really grasp the fact of spending double or almost triple the money for a night on the town. I'm sure it would be fun but unfortunately I don't like the club scene and not only that I now have grown woman responsibilities that come first. My priorities have totally changed through 2015;

 I'm proud of where I am now and I pray that 2016 is even better!

My year at a glance:

The beginning of 2015, most of you that follow me on social media know that I started a weight loss journey. To be totally honest I fell all the way off with it. It lasted for literally 3 months. After that I stopped working out and eventually started eating unhealthy again. Truth be told, eating healthy is expensive as hell. If people aren't starving themselves by eating portions of food trying to lose weight, then they are spending a grip of money stocking up on healthy foods and water. In 2016, that is totally going to change. I'm going to make time for myself by working out, getting a schedule put together so that eventually it can become a regimen. No, I'm not doing this to lose weight this time around, I just want a healthier lifestyle so if weight loss comes with the package I'm down with it but it is what it is. I also would like to do a group weigh in, once a week where I meet up with a group of ladies around the local area to weigh in, give each other tips to keep each other motivating with working out and staying healthy. I plan on starting this in January and cannot wait. It's not about how large of a following that I get but more of a motivational aspect! You guys know I'm all about empowerment...

Education wise, in the beginning of 2015 it was very tough. The university I attend is the most difficult one I've ever attended. Again, if you know me personally, you know that I went to school up north. It was much easier up north, I literally had a few credits left but because I was going through a lot I couldn't really maintain living there alone. I decided to pack up and move back home, it was a major setback in life, school, etc. I procrastinated a while going back to school (transferring credits up north to the university here in Florida) because I needed to find a decent job. Found that decent job and went back to school immediately, but I say all of that to say that coming back home was tough but my situation is better now. Started school, transferred my credits, ended up changing my major because the major I was initially going for was easy up north but in Florida you have to give up your first born to even get into the program. Hahaha! But now that I'm back in school I'm doing a great job, I can't really complain until after I graduate. Those student loans are a whole other story but God got me. In 2016, I plan on continuing my education. God willing i'll be done in Spring of 2017! Working full-time and going to school full-time is a pain in the butt but it will all pay off eventually so I can't even really complain!

On another note, I told you guys I got a sewing machine for Christmas last year. I did get one, however I've been slacking. The thing is still in the box, I just really need to get a table for it but I've been procrastinating on that too. I had this vision that I would have my own lil line running soon, but because I've been slacking in 2015 that hasn't happened. SMH! I'll get the ball rolling in 2016. Don't be surprised if y'all see clothing on me that you've never seen before. So I'll eventually buy a table or a stand for it, I definitely have to figure out where I'm going to set it up in my apartment as well.

Yes, I mentioned that I have an apartment. A MAJOR COME UP for me! This is my first place alone. It's kind of tough having a place but it comes with the territory. The plus is that I have privacy, I can invite whoever I want over and I can do other things I'd rather not disclose on this post. LOL! In 2016, I plan on enjoying this place until my lease is up. I like it but I don't love it! So I plan on getting my furniture and decor in place. Hosting a couple of parties, then moving to a place that is bigger and better by the end of the year.

My love life, in the beginning of 2015 I was single. I was doing good I might add, but then again I always meet the asshole that swears that they are ready to have a relationship then I realize they have commitment issues. Either they are still in love with their EX or they waste my time! I ended up in a situationship (which I thought was going to be a relationship, but I was fooled or believed that it wouldn't end up like previous situationships) with someone in July, which ended in November around the time of my birthday (so devastating) but that situation made me realize that I need to be more careful. I'm so quick to go for the potential in people that I end up being the fool. Realizing that if the person doesn't have potential in themselves then why should I? I mean amongst everything else I found out about him, I'm not surprised that it ended. More hurt that he wasted my time more than anything! The bad comes with the good though, I'm not mad... I'm grown so therefore I can move on gracefully, put a band-aid over the wound and get over the pain. I deserve better so that's what I'm going for this time around! In 2016, I will be having fun with someone. I'll enjoy their company. We will grow. We will go with the flow, but I will definitely have to know where the flow is going once in a while. If all is well, the flow will lead me to someone's altar. LOL! Not in 2016, but somewhere along the line that's the goal. I'm just saying!

Work is work.... No complaints, just more raises & more experience in 2016.

Me blogging and vlogging... This year has kinda been hectic! I know a lot of people that blog/vlog and they have time for it, or possibly make time to do it atleast 2-3 times weekly. That's definitely a goal I can try to reach in the future, but... Along with making plans to get fit, I need to create a schedule where I'm able to at least blog via "Blogspot" once a week and vlog once a week via "Youtube" as well. That's the plan in the coming year... 2016!

That just about sums my year up as a whole. I'm glad to say that I've learned more things and the good somehow outweighs the bad in my life so to be honest I'm good! Next year will be an even better year, I claim it right now! With that being said this is my last post for 2015! Thank you for reading as always...
