So let's start with my 2015 review, well this year you could say was a year of firsts:
1) I took public examinations for the first time (GCSEs)
2) I become a sixth former and no longer wear school uniform
3) I have been able to express myself at school through my clothing (still with the confines of a suit and tie)
4) I went to my first ever Summer in the City and I will be attending this year's one also
5) I really came to terms with who I was this year, I went on a real personal journey
6) I went to my first Pride, which was absolutely incredible and I just had the best time
7) I went on my first proper date
8) I went on holiday with my friends
9) I had my first prom
and
10) I became a Star Wars fanatic
So those are the firsts that I came up with but I'm also going to share some of my best moments of 2015,
I really met some truly incredible people this year and I mean truly incredible: Riyadh Khalaf, Calum McSwiggan, Lucy and Lydia Connell, Connor Franta, Tyler Oakley, Kevin McHale and Tanya Burr to name a few. Thank you all so much for taking the time to talk to little old me, I really appreciated it. I will leave their links below.
I saw a lot of theatre this year, which is one of my absolute passions, from musicals to plays and they were magnificent:
Miss Saigon
Wicked
Othello
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time
The Woman in Black
The Ballad of the Burning Star
Antigone
Measure for Measure
I also went to Tyler Oakley's Slumber Party which was absolutely incredible we had such an amazing night and it was quite amusing getting the tube in our onesies!
I performed in my school play 'A Government Inspector' and had a wonderful time with a wonderful cast.
I met my bestest friend Hannah after 7 years of not seeing each other, lets just say it was emotional.
I also met Caitlin and Alana two of my internet friends at SITC and that was so lovely.
I read some incredible books this year:
1) I'll give you the sun- Jandy Nelson
2) Wild- Cheryl Strayed (given to me by one of my favourite people Estée Lalonde, when I won the giveaway)
3) Two Boys Kissing- David Levithan
4) Love Tanya- Tanya Burr
5) A Work In Progress- Connor Franta
6) We were liars- e. lockhart
7) Pride and Prejudice- Jane Austen
I made some beautiful friends, on the inside and out and I've formed even closer a bond with my oldest companions! That makes them sound like dogs, you know what I mean. I would really like to thank my bæ Holly Jade Willis for particularly sticking with me this year, you brave girly. I love you with so much of my heart.
My style has changed and I have begun to really explore clothing more and I feel my relationship with clothing and fashion has become even more close and personal. I have my style icons of course but this year I have really tried to be like "Is this me?" before buying an item of clothing. A lot of patterned trousers have come into my life, that's all I can say.
My hair has also changed at the start of the year I had a quiff and occasionally I still do style my hair this way but it has changed into me having a fringe, which I have really embraced and thank god it doesn't look like my fringes in my previous years! I'm not sure what my hair journey will be this year 2016 but let's wait and see. I find it an adventure, does that make me sad?
Anyway enough of my rambling, I just really wanted to have a proper reflection on my year and share it with y'all. If you want to share your favourite moments of your year, feel free to express it in the comments. I wish you all an absolutely incredible 2016...
Lots of love
