HAPPY FUCKIN NEW YEAR!!!!!!
I'm going to break this up into 3 (yes, three!) shining new blog posts.. entries? because I'm realizing after a year away... I have shit to say (shocker). 2026 goals will be linked here as I finish them lol. Reflection on 2025 personally as a whole will be linked here too.This entry today is going to be reflections on my goals for 2025 that I wrote on my birthday in 2024 (that I'm just now reflecting on in 2026...). You can read the 2024 birthday reflections here before this blog post if you want to be up to date on the ~lore~ or you can just read this as a standalone reflection on past yearly resolutions and goal accomplishments. choose your own adventure!
Going down the line
starting a gym routine
- I did it!!!!!!!! I didn't go as religiously as I should've in 2025 but! after I wrote that post in 2024 I got serious af and went 3 days a week rain or shine for like 4 months. I fell off with being that disciplined but I do work out and try to be active more often than not (like at least 2 days a week going on a walk or some physical activity lol). after being more active, I have a much healthier relationship with my body/the gym/health overall now. thats been a lifelong journey though *insert spongebob 'AND LIVE!!!!' meme* so dont think 2024/25 was the magic revelation year lol more like the year I was like 'hmm let me be serious with this as a gag and see what happens'. turns out things do happen lol. getting rid of the complex I had about the gym was truly lifechanging. If you are scared to go... I promise it is all in your head and nobody at the gym really gaf what you're doing. also if you're locked in on completing your workout then you won't notice anybody who could be laughing at you, anyway.
paying down debts
- "I hope to have that completed and that chapter closed before my 28th birthday." ok this one is CRAZY because I actually somehow did it. it really did not feel like paying off my collections accounts would happen. I saved, I begged, I groveled, I starved but I fucking did it. I somehow rolled out from under the weight of those collections accounts and that dogshit car. all by my fucking self and crowdfunded resources (like when I would spend my lunch money on my bills people would help me out and it did sustain me so I can't be too like, I-am-an-island about paying it off lol) BUT I just have to honk the fuckin horn on this one seriously. I. did. not. think. I. could. do. this. a million yippees and yahoos across the land for me!! I do still owe student loans and some medical debt/medical debt collections but my tax and credit collection accounts are a thing of the past and an experience I will DEFINITELY learn from. 2026 I'm tackling the medical debt because I just hate shit being held over my head lol and then student loans are like.... idek I'm kicking that can as far as I can until ****** emails me fr like come get it then lol.
more travel!!
- didn't get a car in 2025 so really didn't go much anywhere ctfu. I think I got a rental like... four times (?) in 2025 (for work, a family funeral, and holidays) so... But hey! While I'm on the subject! I have driven a few different cars for rentals and I wanna document them somewhere lol: toyota camry, toyota corolla, a mazda cx50?60? (suv), toyota rav4 (suv), nissan rouge (suv). Driving an suv was scary af at first lmao but I actually ended up reaaalllllyyyy enjoying it hehe. It is so fun to be tall!!! I see why suburban housewives act like that on the road. I definitely want to finance and buy a subaru crosstrek now that I've driven a suv I'll know what to expect. my credit improved alot from paying my car that got stolen (did I ever blog about this? cause LOL) off so I'm almost ready once I get a down payment ready YAAAS.
developing more language learning skills
- did not do this WURFADAMN LOL! Had a year and some change too.... these things happen I guess lol. I will make it a goal for 2026 and really try IDGAF I need to get smarter all the time I'm theorypilled and learnmaxxing. this is the year I give a fuck about grammar like never before. bitch I AM Miram Webster.
