2025

something about how the year presented even more opportunities for growth than the last year and came with a lot of unexpected challenges. how i started a few new jobs, one at a golf course for three days (it was over an hour away), at a tiki restaurant, and an indoor rock climbing gym. how i met a lot of people who would come to be some of my closest friends. how i revisit old (failed) relationships and how they just result in heartbreak (shocker)— but then learning from that. something about how i was submitting to toxic patterns but then recognizing them and rerouting, finding supreme happiness but then realizing it’s just a love bomb and then it exploded in my face. something else about how i faced loss which really hurt. how i went on a lot of solo dates. how i made a little friend half my age (17 years to be exact), how i started a new old job and made even more new friends. the year was an emotional obstacle course but i made it out feeling the happiest i’d ever been.

the photos are a reflection of my intimate moments of the year. telling a story of my ordinary life with personal perspectives. noticing details in banality.
