That cliché "it's a whole new year" post

I started 2013 kind of high on lortab and a little more miserable than I would admit to myself. Honestly, I was just sad that 2012 was over. "Twenty twelve" is so fun to say.

I made the biggest mistake of my life this year. I let people treat me worse than they should have, and I cried a lot. Like, a lot. I got three new siblings and my family moved to a different state. I started, and stopped, going to college. My bff/roommate/soulmate moved out and I got a new one who LOVED sports. I went to a lot of movies by myself.

But I learned how to be happy, even when everything fell apart.

I like 2014 Emily a lot better than 2013 Emily.

This Emily laughs more. This Emily is moving to London. More importantly, this Emily has kissed boys old Emily only (literally) dreamed about kissing.
