2013 Highlights in Photos




My 2013 may not be as exciting as Miley Cyrus', nor did I top the charts like Beyonce just before it ended... but the past year was definitely a lot of fun! Almost every month, there were a lot of things happening and I can't fathom how lucky I am to have experienced it. Through this blog, I have done so many things, experienced new things and met awesome people. And there were some really incredible changes in my life just before it ended. Relive the moments with me by going through some of the pictures I've taken over the past 2013. :)

I've had the chance to travel to some really beautiful places in the Philippines. :)

My life isn't perfect but focusing on the good things certainly make it seem so. :)
I hope that whatever you're going through the past year, that you be able to focus on the blessings you've received. :) After all, without pain, we won't recognize joy. :)

Have a great 2nd day of the year! :)
