2011
i’d like to start off by thanking all my family and friends that helped me and supported me. 2011 has been the best year of my life. this was the year i finally opened my eyes and did everything i felt i had to do to make my goals evident. i did things i never thought i would ever do, i learned so much about myself and about life and i am very proud of myself. i accomplished everything i ever wanted for myself, and even more i never thought i would do. i met so many wonderful people, and i visited so many wonderful places. i met numerous celebrities, mingled with models, and befriended the people i looked up to and never thought i would ever meet. i never thought i would be on tv, i never thought i would go to award shows and fashion shows nor did i think i would be on music videos or on vogue italia. i never thought i would ever be paid for what i love this soon in life. this was the year i let nothing get in my way, i am so proud of myself just because i did this without any help. i discovered new things about life, and the rewards that come with hard work. i pushed myself and never doubted what i could accomplish. i studied my art, i bettered myself in every area i could think of. i built my portfolio and i finally have a wonderful story to share. i did things in 2011 that i never thought i would do. i did things i thought would take years to accomplish. my life changed so much, and i can’t be any happier. i even managed to get straight A’s and am half way through my second to last year of school with a 4.0 gpa. as i write this, i have the most beautiful and perfect baby boy sleeping next to me, his name’s liam and i didn’t ever think liam would be here this soon in my life, and by just looking at him, i know that there’s way more in store for me. this is only the beginning for me, and who knows what 2012 will bring.
happy new year everyone! i wish you all the best in life and i encourage you to never give up, and to aim for your dreams because if you want something bad enough, you will get it
