I'm terribly sorry I haven't posted very much, there's been quite a bit going on and I'm still trying to prioritise.
I just thought I'd talk about the past year and what I hope to do in the coming one.
This year was one of the hardest years of my life. And I'm only 17. Scary. I don't want to go into huge details but it really tested me as a person and made me grow the hell up. People who I thought would be in my life forever suddenly vanished without a trace and I was forced to face my demons and battle them, something that I'm still doing.
God really helped me this year. I'd like to think that I've definitely gotten closer to him and learn to put my trust and faith in him more.
However, this year made me stronger. It made me realise that you can't just wait for life to happen and adventures to come your way, you have to go and chase them. There's no point moping about how your life isn't amazing if you've done nothing to try and make it so. So this year I'm going to go and grab life and jump head first into new opportunities. I'm going to upload more to my YouTube channel and here. I know that no one really reads/watches either of them but I like posting and I want to keep doing it, even if no one ever sees. It's slightly therapeutic.
This year wasn't all bad though, I got to go to Washington and New York with my school and spent Christmas in Dubai with my family. So I can't complain. That much. God has really blessed me and I can't let little things get in the way of my happiness.
Some of my goals for this year are:
- to lose weight and live a healthier lifestyle
- to not shy away from opportunities
- and to upload regularly to my channels
These are only some of them, I have so many it's ridiculous but I always thunk setting mini goals can really help you achieve your overall goal.
I have a couple of auditions for universities coming up this month which both excites and terrifies me. I'm so excited to leave school and start the next chapter of my life, but I hope that chapter involves me going to University. The thought of me having to redo my ALevels is rather unbearable and I really hope I'm not left behind whilst all my friends leave to go start their lives. But just like everything else, I tell myself to calm down. relax and just put it into God's hands.
I've decided to start calling this series "Musings" as its essentially me just doing what I do best. I plan to have a couple of new posts coming out in the next week, so hopefully you like them.
To anyone who read this, thank you so much, it means a lot to me. If you want to let me know your resolutions or just chat, leave a comment down below.

With love
