And just like that, this gal is turning 21 tomorrow!!! I remember celebrating my 20th birthday like it was yesterday, and my brain is struggling to fathom how 365 days have already passed – also how lucky I feel to still be here to honour my 21 year lap around planet earth.

The last year has been a huge eye opener for me – I won’t go into too much detail as my blog post coming on Monday is my well overdue “Dear Future Self” update post in which I was going to make sure I look back on every 52 weeks to see the progress and events that have occurred over the last year. If anything, I’m tougher and stronger than I have ever been before and as I move into being 21, I am for sure going to carry this with me as who knows what the future holds when it comes to life in general.

The last 21 years have been the best. I am so so fortunate not only with my upbringing, but to be surrounded by people that love me and people that only want the best for me. Don’t get me wrong, there have been PLENTY of curveballs around every corner, and there still continues to be a huge curveball for my family to deal with, but we take one day at a time and that’s all we can really do.

I’m so excited for my 20’s ~ fully out of the teenage stage, and independent to the point where I am the full dictator on who I wish to talk to, be friends with, find my way around the world of work, and take full responsibility for what I choose to do. The joys of being an adult hahaha, but I know my parents, grandparents, Ryan, and my close friends will always be there no matter what.

Thank you to all of you for following my journey of being 20, and I can’t wait to bring you along my next chapter to see what this next year holds!

I’ll be off out celebrating this evening, with some family coming over tomorrow evening for some food and I can’t bloomin wait!!

Goodbye 20…Hello 21! 😍🎉
