new year's resolutions: enter 2025 edition

[Metalliku]

it's already been a full year since the last thread was made back then, now we're a few days near of what's basically the middle of the decade, wow! time sure does fly huh? it almost feels like the pandemic started yesterday and all.

anyways, now's the time to reflect back on this year's goals and start thinking about the next ones going forward. does anyone have anything in mind yet? any stuff that you didn't get to do that you might wanna try again next year?

Gonna stay sober for the entire year this time fingers crossed

I should probably make mine "be nicer to myself" but im not sure if i deserve it... this is a joke, i'm fine i should probably still make that my resolution tho

I actually didn't necessarily fail at this given how vague it was, therapy helps I guess.

I think I'll try that again, coupled with an emphasis on "do the things that are important to me". This might mean writing or art or even just like working out idk, I'll try keeping it vague again to hopefully luckily complete it again.

im going to graduate from college with my compsci bachelors which is kind of wild to think about. planning on going straight into the IT grind, there's a good chance the college which i've also been working for part time as a tech support guy ends up bringing me on full time. state government job so pay wouldn't be particularly exciting but it'd be a good starting point and the benefits would be solid

Last year I said my friends and I wanted to release a playable demo. I'm the only one that did any work, and the project fell apart. This year, I just want to publish something, a game, a thing I wrote, anything at all creative, published to an audience either for free or for money. I gotta finish something.

[Trogtor]

I'm finding it increasingly harder to want to get creative whether it's making 3d models or videos. I just wanna spend time next year getting back into my old creative hobbies and even pick up some new ones.

haven't finished anything but i started working on a lot of stuff.

mine isn't going much at all, i fear
i have a good excuse though which is that I've spent the last several weeks being stressed out by my own maladaptive behaviors & thought processes. maybe my real resolution should be to go to therapy and get that better under control lol

I have made other positive progress that isn't explicitly a previously-stated goal though. mainly spending and diet-related; eating better, more often at home instead of takeout/fast food. specifically committed to stopping that almost entirely this past week, with the exception of a regularly-scheduled dinner with friends that has been a small weekly tradition for the last few years. I thought it would be more trouble, in terms of executive function, but it's actually not that bad. the vyvanse helps of course

I've been working on a short MLP smut fic that I should be able to release before the end of the month. Not exactly what I had in mind when I said I wanted to publish something but it is something.
