On why I love December

Birthday Goals Holidays TorontoDecember 20, 2013November 15, 2014

December brings people together. Friends and family return home for the holidays, there are celebrations left, right, and centre, everyone allows themselves to indulge, (in the best possible way) and we all finally take a few days off from work. And on Tuesday, I turned twenty-five. Cue the panic attacks! I’ve always viewed this age […]
