みなさん、こんにちは!
2015 was a roller-coaster of a year for me, emotionally and physically wise. Despite that, I feel like that I have come out a little bit stronger, than what I felt like at the beginning of 2015, so that's a plus, right? Besides struggling with my demons and emotions, I experienced a lot of positivity in a few different forms.
○ Meeting my favourite band
Meeting your favourite band/actor/artist is any fangirl's dream, so upon hearing that LOST ASH would be coming to the UK for Hyper Japan... well, lets just so that a lot of screaming and uncontrollable crying was involved. Closer to the actual date though, nerves kicked in more that anything and there was even a point where I didn't want to meet them face to face because of said nerves but, I overcame them and managed to meet them twice AND see them perform live twice. A massive highlight was the members recognising me on the second day, even though it was thanks to my hair because how can you forget someone with platinum blonde w/ pastel pink and pastel purple hair huh?!
○ Meeting my favourite drag queen
As well as meeting my fave band, to top it off I met Phi Phi O'hara last October! I have, hand on my heart, loved Phi Phi for about two years now since I had a binge fest on RPDR and after finding out that she was coming to the UK for the first time ever, hello early birthday present to me! She is the sweetest person I could have met and as it was HER birthday on the day of the drag show, I managed to scrap together some presents and she was super, duper sweet about them *phew* but ahhh I want to go to more drag shows this year and see Phi Phi live again - if she ever comes back to the UK!
○ Travelling to Sweden
This was my first ever solo trip abroad, and technically only my third trip abroad but that's ok! I met my gorgeous friend Christina, whom I met on tumblr originally and then BAM! I was saying about needing a holiday and she said "Come to Sweden and stay with me!" and so I did! Best decision ever because I could do things on my own terms, without worrying about other people, and I experienced the glorious Stockholm in all its historical glory... and it's make-up stores whoops.
To put all my low points together - overspending in Stockholm so I was in a little bit of debt, was a stupid situation to be in but I certainly learnt my lesson there. I also lost an old, good friend from school because, well I realised that she wasn't actually good for me any more. She was a little bit poisonous and narrow minded so I had to be mean and cut ties off there. At first, it was awful but after a couple of weeks I slowly came around to it and now it's like, "... who?". A final, big low point was not being in control of my depression to the point where I contemplated quite a few things. It's bad, I know, and it took a while... a long, long, long while when I started to feel myself again, but I did overcome it and I'm glad that I did.
So there we have it. My highs and lows of 2015 and even though there were only a few, major highs over the year... I am rather soddin' proud of those highs! 2016 will bring some new adventures, especially many with my best friend and my closet friends, so bring it all on! Oh, and I hope you will enjoy reading along with me and my blog this year ♡
Thanks for reading
