Looking back, 2019 was a very eventful year for me. I went through some changes and had some unforgettable trips where I met new friends. Professionally, I couldn’t ask for more from my current job! With all of this happening, I feel like I’ve also missed doing some things that I used to do. Most notably, I wasn’t able to read enough books. I think I’ve only read fewer than 20 titles compared to the last five years, during which I always read at least 50 titles a year. This means fewer book reviews from me. I guess I just didn’t have enough time to do it, or I really need to manage my time wisely! Hah!
My trips overseas were the highlights of last year, and I forgot to share those with you. I may find the time in the coming days to do that, since I’ve just finished my month-long trip to Europe where I spent Christmas and New Year’s Eve! Oh, I’m dying to share the pictures with you too.
I guess my top blogging resolution this year is simply to write more and share more. I know that I’m not obligated in any way to do that, but I just love being able to practice my writing and share all of these experiences with the world—the new books I’ve discovered, places, TV shows, and basically everything in my life now. I’m also considering actually consolidating all of my “blogs” into this blog, where I can share everything under the sun.
Another resolution is to be more active on the forums I used to visit regularly. I know that we’re in an age where everything is in pictures, videos, and social media, but I believe that blogging is still a valuable way to remember the past in a more detailed manner! For me, even if nobody reads my blog, I’d love to have something to look back on in the future and see the changes I’ve made or what I did or wrote at a particular time in my life.
I wish everyone a happy new year, and I hope to meet more people who blog about their pets, favorite films, TV shows, Hillary and Donald, climate change, their latest thrift store hunts, and just about everything in the world and beyond!
