With the Earth’s relentless spin about to fling free the last shreds of 2017, it’s time to send off the old year and welcome in the new! Care to share any memories of 2017, hopes for 2018, or plans for the party in-between?
Also, apologies to the Australians for getting this up late, and also anyone east of the Urals!
I’m trying this resolution thing this year, I’ll see how it goes. I really just want to make stuff, I had a lot of fun this year making stuff and I think I can break into a new method of stuff-making (like a new style of video, or a different type of writing). Also, I applied for a few MA programs in rhetoric and writing studies, and, hopefully, I get into one of them and I can start working towards that degree. I’m trying to go into 2018 with a sense of optimism, I got diagnosed with anxiety and depression this year and I think that unfortunately reflected in my outlook on life in general (luckily, I’m getting help with those). Rather than worrying about whether or not I’ll fail at something, I’m going to try just doing those things and seeing what comes of them this year. That’s my goal, I guess.
But, tonight, I’m going to drink precisely three beers and ask my friends to play Halo 3 multiplayer
I don’t want to have to do a whole 2018. I barely wanted to do 2017 and then the year made sure to prove that I shouldn’t have come into it with anything even close to enthusiasm.
Can I get away with a new years resolution to vote in every election I am legally able too and be good? Despite the fact I already do that (and have since I was 18?) As for 2017, despite ‘it was the worst year since 2016’ feeling, personally I accomplished a lot and am ending 17 way more positive then I did 16.
As for plans between now and midnight uh…dinner. Since I don’t drink, or celebrate new-years beyond watching it on tv.
