As I approached the last few days of the 2018, I find myself reflecting on past thoughts within the year, could I have done things better, have I succeeded to achieve my goals and what goals do I want to focus on for the New Year? All these thoughts scrambled around in my head. There was two things I wanted to achieve and I feel blessed to succeeded them both. One is passing my probation in my current job, the second is finally passing my driving test.
It wasn't all difficult, there is more I could mention but the list goes on. Overall, 2018 was a very good year, visited a few places such as Rzeszow, Poland for my friend's wedding, Amsterdam and Barcelona for myself and sister's birthday in July, but that's not all, I also attended a few concerts such as the African Orchestra and seeing R&B singer Raheem Devaughn at the Jazz Cafe, socialising with friends at Garage Nation, Matt's Barbecue festival, 51st State fest, taking a weekend trip to Paris to attend Afro Punk fest, meeting up with close friends, meeting new friends, seeing multiple artists such as Damien Marley, Davido, Maxwell, Sza and many more. Lets not forget the pre-celebrations for Carnival at Southbank Centre and Notting Hill Carnival to end the summer nicely. Got to see my favourite comedians of 2018 Yvonne Orji and MotheComedian live in concert. Can not wait to see new material from these two for 2019 and finally seeing Kaytranada at Koko in Camden. I cant get enough of this musician, I love his music and the pulsating beats just makes you wanna move and don't stop moving. lol.
As I sit on the couch and continue you typing I realise I was quite busy last year and not all has been mentioned. I mean lets not forget I've had a great Christmas and spending quality time with friends and family who I haven't seen in a while and just enjoying the smiles on everyone's faces, but one of my biggest highlights of the last few weeks of 2018 is finally realising what I want to do with my career and that is going into Editorial Writing. You could say the correct word is Journalism.
Journalism has never uttered my lips before but it possesses a certain creativity that I crave. I feel free when I write, it's a release to write down all my thoughts, experiences and opinions.

I like to be true to myself and follow my dreams just like everyone else but making sure I make time for me and have fun and that's what I have done for 2018 and I'm bringing that positivity to 2019. I hope you all do the same.
Happy New Year to all.
