I'm going to keep this really short since it's the first week of classes and I am already overwhelmed with the amount of work I have to do.

So, in short. I loved Afropunk. I loved the people I went with, and I loved getting to see performers I had been wanting to see for a while. I especially loved getting to rage out with other black people who were in to punk, rock, and everything else. 

Hair was done by me and both outfits are made entirely by me (with the exception of the sheer shirt).

The only negative thing that about Afropunk is that there was too many white people.

For it being advertised as a black space the amount of white people there was uncomfortable. Being an ally is great but it would also be great of black spaces were respected. Same thing with pride parades. Let people have their space.

For my final adventure of 2018 and to ring in the new year I went on an adventure with my family to Thailand.

As I sit and reminisce on my past year it was filled with adventure. Out of the 12 months of the year I was abroad about 7 months. Which is pretty surreal to think about. The only thing I'm sure about in life after college is that I want to live abroad and getting this little taste of it was amazing. Travel wise I got to accomplish many of my goals and visited many of the countries on my list. Academically I did okay, my current GPA is a 3.295 which I'm most definitely not mad at. As for my personal goals they kinda fell to the wayside. My procrastination, anxiety, and lack of self discipline were my downfall. But, at least I'm self aware enough to realize my downfalls and act to fix them.

I'm going to be pretty ambitious 2019. I probably won't be doing as much traveling. But you know me, I can't stay in one place for too long. My main theme for this year is Focus. Focusing on my goals almost fanatically, religiously. Senior year is 8 months away, Graduation is 17 months away if I want to bring my future self to life it's going to require a lot of focus.
