Short post today because I'm sick with the flu and I feel like shit and I have to go back to work tomorrow :(
Looking back
Looking back, 2024 was kind of a blur. I did my last semester of undergrad, found my first job, and then worked. I started picking up a new language and a few new hobbies in the form of gongfu tea and DDR too. All in all, I'm quite satisfied with how the year went, even if it kind of melted into a blob in my memoryhole/mind palace.
I can't tell if that's something I should be upset over. Does life need to a chain of distinct, memorable events? Part of me wishes a little that it was, but another part of me is has resigned to the fact that this is simply just how life is for normal people.
Resolutions
This year I want to take my diet more seriously. Getting for the first time in my life really made it easy for me to think, "Eh. It's been a rough week so far. I can treat myself today," for the 10th week in a row and then buy a snack of some kind. I've been slacking on exercise too and I'd like to change that. Once I get better from this flu, anyway.
With my new job I haven't found a lot of time and energy to work on my Japanese, too. I want to draw better work-life boundaries so I have more time to spend on myself.
Happy new year, reader.
Despite the circumstances, and the fact that it doesn't look like they'll be getting any better any time soon, may the new year be kind to us and the rest of the world.
