I really don't know what I can say. My little corner of the internet is 2 years old today. Usually my blog posts come Wednesday and Saturday, I'm going off track and putting this one up on a Sunday.
Thank you all for reading, some of you comment and some of you don't, but each and every one of you is great and whether or not you've stumbled upon this corner by accident or through another blog, thank you for being here! I'm so glad I get to share these stories and recipes and bits of life with all of you!

 2. To Write. While school is all about attending classes and taking exams, it's easy to get caught up in it and lose your creativeness. (I don't have time to read a book unless I'm on a break). Writing is something that's relaxing, and I can come off a 7 hour day and just sit down and write it out.
 4. It's an Outlet. Sometimes when I blog, it's a really good way to get rid of stress. In a way, blogging distracts me from feeling anxious, and it was extremely helpful when I lost my dog. It was really helpful when I felt all worked up about my roommate situation. Blogging is really great, there's just something peaceful about it.

 5. To Learn. There is only so much you can learn at school. People have so many stories shared on their blogs about life lessons and things they've had to overcome, as well as going on trips and top places to visit, and posts about getting clear skin or eating right. There is so much to learn when you read a post someone writes. I love it.

While it seems like every blogger I follow has already written their New Year blog post, it seems that I've stayed true to myself and have come in a bit late. You can read my blog post about what 2015 meant to me here. My family had traveled once again to celebrate New Years, though unlike last year we only traveled one state over to stay with my cousins. While we ended the year with two trips to two separate malls, and my mom and I took a stroll through Ikea and after eating a nice dinner of sushi and pesto chicken at the restaurant called Crave crashed someone else's New Years eve party. The year 2015 went out pretty well I'd say, and it brought along a lot of good types of change, 2016 is bringing in a few resolutions and things to look forward to!

1. Eating Clean: While many people all around the world make their "i'm going to eat healthy this year" resolutions, my whole family and I have decided to really go for it. Clean out our pantries of processed foods (that means those Christmas cookies too) and eat fresh and clean. I've loved meal planning so far,and I can't wait to share some with you if you're interested!

 2. Travel: I'm lucky enough to have one nice trip planned this year that I cannot wait for. It involves driving in a car and lounging on a beach. I'll be bringing my new camera of course and can't wait to share everything with you!

3.Blog Posts: I want to explore other blogs, it's always fun to read about people's travels, recipes, and tips and tricks so if you have any recommendations or want me to read your blog make sure to leave your links in my comments and I'll be right there in minutes. I'd also like to get to over 100 followers on Bloglovin/Google Plus.

4. Adventures: I'm still pretty new to the town my University is in and I think one goal I'd like to set is to find something new at least once a month, or every other month. This is the second spring semester that I'll be there, so hopefully I'll be able to!

5.Do something for the first time. This one is already a pre-planned event that is happening at the end of the summer and I'm very excited to share it with you all, but the date isn't set yet and I really don't want to jinx it!

I hope you all have a great New Year! How did you end your 2015? Did you set any exciting plans or resolutions? Leave me links of your favorite blogs in the comments as well! Thanks for always reading! xx Kenzie

I know I said I would throw in a few posts as well as the travel posts but life happened, and I honestly became too busy for my own good. I snatched up a second job, learned I was moving at the end of the month (the 24th), and I had a little over a week to pack. It was quite stressful, and scary because I had made so many great friends in the past few months because of work that I didn't want to leave them. But I also didn't want to fall further behind in school so here I am. In a new room. With a roommate. And yes I did bring my goldfish with me. 
  But even though being in a new town is scary when you leave the old...it's exciting once you get there. And I'm really excited to share all of it with each of you. Also, on January 24th was the 1st birthday of Behindhazeleyes! And I just wanted to take a quick second to thank you. Like actually truly thank you. Because I never thought (and I know this is cliche) but I really didn't think people would read it..at least not from 37 different countries, multiple times. 
   I know this post was a bit wordy and I'm sorry, I have a picture post coming up and a lot less..wordy ones as well!
