Late 2025 post with several pictures I should’ve posted earlier in the year, but better late at the top of 2026 than never, am I right?

I think this year, despite being so difficult, should also be looked at for the light and goodness it brought into my life. I watched so many horror movies! I lost friends, made new ones, and learned so much about advocating for myself and setting my boundaries. I was in two dream shows of mine (Great Comet and Twelfth Night, and how lovely it was to do Twelfth Night, but with VAMPIRES???). I wrote and composed my senior capstone! I GRADUATED FROM UCLA!! It’s easier to dismiss one’s progress when the hurt and self-doubt creep in, but this year wasn’t easy by any accounts, and I’m proud of making it through to end.

You ought to be proud of yourself, too. Give yourself a pat on the back for all you’ve accomplished in 2025.

Here’s to 2026.
