(yes i live a life where i now think in process improvement terms, oh god)
So. 2015. ( Holy shit. Some shitty things in here about driving/car crashes and infidelity, because of how it started, but some awesome stuff too. )
I've got an offer on a badass co-op unit across the street from the subway (with the help of my parents). I've got two lovers that fill me with joy, and got to kiss a lot of lovely folks (and a handful of not-so-lovely folks, but each one was an important life lesson). I've got a job that's fulfilling but also not exhausting, engaging enough and yet low key enough to feel like I can actually hold onto it, that pays enough that I paid off my debts from Boston very quickly and can work on some other financial goals. There's good anime on my hard drive and pretty pigments on my face and nails.
I think life's pretty good, but I know it can get better.I'd like to spend the next year figuring out what my habits really are, from the other side, after all the adjustments have been made. Learn who I've become, so I can improve further.
I've got some big plans this coming year - besides that co-op, I've got at least three trips out of the city planned (one in April to Boston to get what I was supposed to get last time; once sometime in the summer to Florida to greet old friends, move a pile of nouns, and watch someone dear to me get married; and then Boston again in November for![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
rax's fabulous sounding CGR.) I'm already brainstorming for my birthday in July, and how I'll get lots of the lovely people in my life in one place at one time.
I'd like to have enough money and vacation time saved that in 2017 or 2018 I can seriously consider heading to Europe, eating food and touring soccer stadiums. I'd like to do more reading and writing. I'd like to put a significant dent in my makeup and origami paper collections. But to do those things, I've gotta observe my current state, and figure out what needs improving.
Let's explore 2016 together, dear friends. Watch this space for observations.
