Quick 2025 recap
2 months ago
General
So... 2025 is coming to an end. Thank goodness.
Where do I even start? This year has been horrendous for me. Lots of personal drama leading to mental breakdowns, relapses and slowing down many things I've been trying to fix, and getting hit by a damn car as a pedestrian putting hard a stop to my exercise routine and drawing until last month. Many, many people I know and myself have lost loved ones, being it family, pet or both, adding to the aforementioned mental toll... Bleh, just bleh, I say.
On the other hand? That accident sorta made me realize how fragile life is. If I'd gotten hit half a second later, I wouldn't be here anymore, or so I was told. Gave me a new outlook on that second chance I've been granted and I really, really should work on my dreams before it's too late. Now that I've got my physiotherapist's approval to resume drawing - and a little bit of motivation - I'm going back to that as one of my resolutions. I also have a stable job with good enough job security, being graveyard shift. Sure, working at night kinda sucks, but I'm getting used to it and it's a rather physical job, so it helps with my lack of exercise, hah. Despite the bags under my eyes I haven't been feeling so well since covid!
All in all? 2025 sucked for many reasons but I'm suprisingly optimistic for 2026, at least when it comes to self-improvement.
With all of that said - Merry Christmas and Happy New year, everyone!
Oh also I'm turning 32 today. Huzzah.
