Happy New Year! Feelings and 2018 Goals!
8 years ago
2017 is coming to an end, was it good or bad? That is up for debate and probs always will.
For me, there have been ups and downs, coating along general 'blah' most of time.
As for 2018, I have a bit of a good feeling about it. Like things will get better for everyone in a way. I think of it as a time of enjoy and prepare for the storm that I feel 2019 will be. That is the year I fear for some reason I can't really explain. It just something in the aura of it that makes my prediction for 2019 will be like 2017, but worse. Much worse and it will stay that way until 2020 where things will get better and stay that way for a long while after.
That is just my feeling though. This year will be better and once we make it 2020 and beyond things will be looking up more and more.
1. Pay off new PC. - I got a new PC! It has been so long since I've been able to play newer games it feels so strange! Buuuuut since my old desktop died I bought this new one in in a hurry and as such now have a loan. Not a super huge one, but I still hate being in debt of any kind.
2. Drop to 250lbs or 40-42w size (or lower) pants. Okay, this one I am really close to already. Me weight loss has been going really well. To put into perspective I was 368lbs in March. As of today I am 290lbs! It's just with the weather as cold as it has gotten recently and no access to a gym working out has become difficult. Just gotta drop these 40lbs and I will be super happy! Honestly, if I can by pants at Target I will be thrilled.
3. New Glasses - The ones I have now are old and falling apart. It is time, as soon as monies are available.
4. Join and regularly attend a Pokémon League. - I really, REALLY want to get back into the card game but there are so few places that I can make it to and I need to build up my collection again as well as learn the newer rues. Much has changed since I played last.
5. Expand and improve upon the Garden - Oh yeah, I started a garden. It turned out rather well, we grew our own mini pumpkins, peppers and cherry tomatoes. I want to try to make it bigger and grow bigger things.
6. Visit Boston, Massachusetts. - Okay, maybe I have been sucked into Fallout 4 which I can now run with my new computer so I am playing through for the first time fully but checking it out online I kinda wanna visit. There certainly is a hecka ton of history there and I have never been to the east coast having grown up on the west most of my life. I shouldn't cost too much for a weekend trip and would be something to say I have done ya know?
Maybe this last one isn't exactly a goal, but I'm going to try to make more journals. I mean, this whole year I only made a total of 4, none of which really said anything about what is going on with me. I've always had trouble doing that, just putting my life out there like this. XD
I dunno, I try to read as many of the journals my friends here write and I would like to think/hope they would read those of mine such as this? Eh, 2018 will tell.
Oh, and if I can, be rid of Facebook entirely. Every time I look at Facebook I am reminded why I don't do Facebook all that often, but it has somehow become a main staple of use for almost everyone I need to keep in touch with and events around the area, so 'just deleting your account' is not an option to just take so easily. If I can find a way to be rid of this platform I will.
