January 15th, 2018.

Last year, 2017, was one of the most privileged, difficult, challenging years I ever had. I’m not really into drama, I’m pretty comfortable in my relaxed anti-problematic life. But this year definitely taught me some lessons, some of them in hard ways, and some of them in very nice ways I wasn’t expecting.

Ups and downs, every year feels like the worst year whenever something bad happens to us. I had been there before and I wasn’t going to allow put myself down for these things. I could say I was a fighter. And I’m starting to taste the adulthood. Very bittersweet. Realistic. Good. Bad. But that’s fine because that’s life from now on, right?

But on the brightest side, 2017 was full of experiences and I was blessed with amazing opportunities. From being in a magazine, having some bands appreciating your work, meeting loyal friends, family time to starting new projects on my own, founding my own website, getting more recognition of my work, etc. There are multiple times I was so grateful for being alive and fighting for my dream and future. 

I’m close to finishing college and I’m so thrilled about it! And, unlike last year, I have a good feeling about this year. 

These are my favorite moments and photographs from 2017. Month by month.
