New Years Review & Resolutions
4 years ago
General
Last year I didn't make any official resolution but I did find a tweet from exactly a year ago wherein I said:
"I’m feeling something positive about my progress artistically. I’m getting somewhere but not sure where. All very confusing but exciting. Happy New Year I’m going to go ahead and keep watching cool movies and reading cool comics and also not die"
I think it's safe to say that in the past year I improved the quality of my artwork and the ease with which I continue improving, IE learning how to more efficiently learn, having fun with my practice. I watched fewer movies this year but plenty great ones all the same. DEFINITELY read a lot of cool comics, I'm almost caught up on One Piece (almost at the start of the Wano arc!) which I'm sure you know is uhh... real long. Read some non-comic books too, which is a habit I fell out of years ago. And I haven't died :3
I'm still hesitant to make resolutions, because I think they're hard to really actively follow. I'm almost superstitiously avoidant of making any in regards to health and exercise because those resolutions seem almost doomed to burn out in a week (as regular gym-goers easily observe). But similar to last year, I think its safe to hope that I read more books. And generally creatively and intellectually enrich myself. And also not die.
