Christmas passed very quickly this year, giving me little time to enjoy it. I'm always sad when Christmas is over, even though I know it always comes back the year after! But once we are well into January, I start getting excited for summer. I don't know if anyone else is like this, but it just sort of comes on, and I can never stop thinking about my plans throughout the year as well as those during the summer holidays. I think it might be because even though you might know about your plans in 2014, it's not until you enter 2015 that you really get hyped for your agenda of the upcoming year. Well I think that's what it's like for me, anyway.
These days I can't stop thinking of my plans for the holidays, relatives that are coming to visit, or the new experiences I will encounter. So much happens in just one year- it feels like yesterday I was visiting Berlin or on the verge of turning
19. 2014 was a busy year, and it flew by. I had so many diverse experiences- I even went to Mexico, somewhere I hadn't expected to go this past year. Sometimes you have to just stop and think about how lucky so many of us really are.
It is believed to have been one of the worst years for the homeless crisis in Dublin. This was plastered all over the news, with updates and reports at every news broadcast this winter, as well as programs about it on TV. It made me think about how fortunate I am to have a home and a bed to sleep in.
2014 was a year of new experiences, the end of schooldays and wearing uniforms, and the beginning of the next chapter of my life. Now it's time to move on and let 2015 throw everything it has to offer at me. Another year, another adventure.
Happy New Year (a little late, sorry)!
