As a study break, my roommates and I went for some froyo. The first photo is taken outside the froyo place (it was incredibly foggy) and the second, on our way back to the car (we tried to be cool).

Dipping My Toe In...

It has been almost a year since I've blogged and I miss it.

I have decided that my New Years resolution is going to be getting back into blogging! I know that means that I won't start blogging again until January, but I've decided to dip my toe back into the blogosphere with a photo challenge. For the month of December, I'm going to be posting a picture a day as a way to ease my way back into this wonderful world of Love, My Twenties. If you'd like to join in on this December Photo Challenge, please tell me! Use the hashtag #LM20sDecember on Twitter, Facebook, and/or Instagram or if you'll be blogging along with me, comment with your link!

See you officially in January and for now, please enjoy my photo challenge!

The Challenge:

December 1: Self Portrait

I wear glasses now. I still love tea. I have a newfound love for coffee. December to me means red!

December 2: Sunset

One of my favourite things that God has created: sunsets. The sky is His canvas.

December 3: Decorated

Our basement is now decorated in a winter wonderland theme full of cream, crystal, gold, and silver.

A Year, Old & New

As the first month of 2014 comes to a close, I decided to take a look back at my year in 2013 and look ahead to what I want to accomplish as this new year continues. Seeing how many things happen in a year helps remind you of the life that's fleeting, along with helping remember the amazing time that God's given you in such a short time.

My 2013

2. Got back into Chi Omega.

3. Changed my major!
