My Reflections: In the Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day

Life has been busy lately, but I don't think I've enjoyed all its diversity up until now! I can feel myself changing as a new sense of confidence takes on, a new love for learning, and a strange inner thrill to seek adventure and chase the lions in my path. But yet... I also feel trapped; a contrast of doubts bid me to stay confined to what I know, what's safe and sound. But without risks, where would there be adventure? 

These coming months of preparation for the future keep me intrigued and hesitant, but I am determined to pursue what is laid before me... though everything within me screams against it, I will attain my goals, because I'm a lion chaser. 

So What's Been Up with Me?

Hey guys!
I know it's been awhile since I've posted anything on The Girl in Curls, but now since I've graduated I'm aiming on scheduling and purposefully completing the tasks and goals I have set for this year.

So what's been up with me?

I have been reading quite a few books, which is a big accomplishment for me! Also, my writings in poetry/stories have expanded and I plan on continuing my writings as I am developing a novel currently that I aim to complete. Whether it's 100 pages or 300 hundred, the goal is to finish it and also keep you guys updated on what's been going on with me in the process.
I've also been pretty musically involved lately, engaging in voice development, learning finger style guitar, and I aim to continue my music theory studies and also give my violin and cello some more attention.
Spanish will definitely be a big priority again as I shoot for further study in the language. And I'm planning on finishing my Puebla within the following weeks.
As for what to do next in education, I'm praying whether or not it is the Father's will for me to go to college, if so, I would major in music for sure. There are so many opportunities for me, but I'm not sure which to take and where Yahweh will lead. I've also been considering getting a job and transportation so I could travel more. Just wanting to bring in some income, ya know?
I'd like to post more music/covers on my Youtube channel to be a bit more active there, and to be more available for my followers and subscribers.
Also I'm trying to find a way I can produce more music for you guys in the future. So many goals, but I'll take it one at a time.
And a final goal is to meet people, get to know them better, and come out of my introverted shell which will be difficult, but not impossible.

So what are your goals for this year?
