2015 in Review Eek

2015 in Review Eek



Theres no mincing words here: 2015 was a rough year for me. Due to a mix-up with my study abroad program I was out of school for a semester which sunk me into one of the worst depressions Ive ever had. I stopped blogging from January until May and spent a lot of days with my head under the blanket on the verge of a panic attack because I thought I wouldnt graduate on time. It wasnt fun or glamorous, it was just a mess.

So last year I had a list of goals for this blog for 2015 that just didnt get done. Two posts a week? Try not posting for five months. Guest posts? Nope. Revamping old posts? Still nope. I guess what I did do was get into Instagram, where you can follow me @theeverydaygoth for fashion, cats, planners, hauls, and more. But even that was pretty sporadic until recently.

Side note: I didnt realize quite how few selfies I took this year until I went back to find some for a yearly wrap-up post on Tumblr. This is something that has to change for 2016.

Things started to turn around for me when I got back to school in September. I spoke with my adviser and set up my schedule so that I can in fact graduate on time. I started two new jobs (including one with a counseling service--go figure!) and I feel better than I had in a long time. Ive fallen back in love with this blog. I take a lot more selfies now.

2015 was a tough one, but Im very fortunate to have the supportive group of friends and family to work through it with me. 2016 feels promising. The big thing Im excited about is that Ill be graduating college with my Bachelors degree in Art History and History in May. How time has flown! Remember when I was just applying? Eek. So, next week Ill be bringing you my resolutions for this year.

How was your 2015? Are you excited for 2016?
