A Week of Good News




This week was full of good news for me. My blog was featured in my college's newspaper on Wednesday and I was ecstatic about it. My sister and a few of my friends shared their thoughts about my blog and how they are inspired by what I am doing. I'm so lucky that people find joy in what I am doing here, because it's the thing that has brought me endless amounts of joy, as well. When you find what it is that you are passionate about and you share it with others, you inspire them to discover their passion, too. I'm doing what I love and I am inspiring others along the way- therefore, I'm achieving so many of my goals all at once.

Yesterday, I found out that I have been accepted into the study abroad program for the fall semester. I will be studying in Italy for four months (!!!!!!) and I could not possibly be any happier or any more excited about it. At the start of this year, I vowed to take advantage of every opportunity that I possibly could. I have always wanted to travel but haven't had many chances to. I'm so lucky that I have a family that supports me every step of the way, wants to see me happy, and will do all that they can to help me live out my dreams.

I'm so excited to take Vogue and Vibes to Italy and all around Europe with me in six months. There is so much in store for me, my journey and my blog and I'm happy I have a place where I can share stories every step of the way.

Ask yourself how you can take advantage of the opportunities in your life. What can you do to be sure that you live out your dreams? Is there something you've wanted to do but have never allowed yourself to do? Do it. You are only young once. Grab on to every opportunity that comes your way and make the most out of every single day of your life. Create something that matters. 

Here's to a week full of even more good news.
