Usually I write a summary of the months here, but for this one I’ll just say this: you were wrong, but you had the right to be wrong. Ended 2024 strong. Literal definition of trying to live your best life.
October
November
December
If I had the opportunity to go back into time, I would go back to you and hug you for the both of us. Lord knows you were going to need it and I know I need it now. We’re the same person, but in such two different realities. I need it for the strength, for the encouragement, to appreciate how far I’ve come and because I miss that twinkle in my eye. You need it for the moment, for what’s to come, for who you are, and also for the strength. I wouldn’t go back and say sorry or try to change anything. Not because I think it was meant to happen, but because I don’t know any of the what if’s and I’d rather not try to think about it. It would be maddening either way and in every other different way anyways.
For the both of us, I would go back in time, enjoy that moment with you, remember what it was like and hug you. That hug would have been everything to you because that hug was what I needed and was looking for and felt like I never got. So I would go back in time to hug you for the both of us. The twinkle wasn’t based on truth, but love and I miss that. Sometimes they are hand in hands and other times they aren’t. Balancing them when they aren’t isn’t the easiest, but you got here. You got me here, I’m here.
“Without you I can’t be, you’re the universe to me. You’re the air in my lungs, you’re the fields where I run, you’re the sky where I’m floating.“
I woke up from something not so funny this morning and I was really going to let it ruin my day, but last year memory recaps saved me from that just like they did last year.
I bought my ticket to The Alchemy Tour (Feat. Huxley Anne, The Glitch Mob, NGHTMRE + Slander Presents: Gud Vibrations, And Seven Lions) and convinced two of my others friends to come with me about a week or two before. We full fucking sent it. I absolutely am in LOVE with Slander, so it was a go even if I had to go solo. I drove us 2 hours to Detroit and you know how car rides with your friend are, just unforgettable. We got to The Fillimore, found our spot on the balcony and met up with our other friends. Crazy how much music and friends can heal you and instantly make you forget whatever troubles you have for a little. The Alchemy Tour is the best show I’ve ever experienced and I really needed it at the time. When I say I was a crying headbanger, I WAS a crying headbanger! Make it a crying session, but with bass. The best part of the whole show was when Seven Lions played Island. Since we were on the balcony, it was the middle section, so between the main floor and upper seats we saw the whole production of the show from an upper view and that was really awesome. The lasers and The Atom stage went crazy, but when the Island drop came on you could just feel the headbanging and bass in the balcony. We literally had it bouncing with every WICKA WOMP WOMP WOMP WICKA WOMP WOMP. I would say that was the best performance of Island that I’ve ever experienced hands down. You can watch my little recap TikTok below!
AHHHHHHH!!!! IT WAS SO GOOD AND I MISS IT SO MUCH. My heart just fills up when I think about it. My friends make me feel super human and that’s who I think of when that song plays ♡
Anyways, that’s my special moment for today. It filled my heart last year and got me out of a potential bad day today.
