#new year thoughts

[verkomy]

going into 2024 with very mixed feelings but hopeful for the better nonetheless. this year I have struggled a lot with my mental health, I still do, but there are moments when I feel that life is good and I wish the same for you — that you’ll find those small (even if brief) moments in life that bring you joy and that you’ll be able to find peace and comfort in them enough to make you keep going. make those little moments your anchors.

Happy New Year all!! 🥳

If I’m being honest, and I feel that I should, I’m completely disillusioned by Kaylor. I don’t have the wherewithal to pick up the pieces anymore. I’m not sure what game they are playing and if it’s something I can even watch anymore. I’m tired yes. I didn’t have a countdown to something happening ie with the end of 2023 comes my abandonment. No it’s not like that because I’ve been watching the ship leave port for a long time and I can only be so patient. The truth is things haven’t been the same since the pandemic. This year we did get something big we got Karlie at the eras tour!! But like everything that surrounds their PR and like everything that relates to Kaylor it’s wrapped in a new beard and a weird seating arrangement that ignites the haters. I use to think the girls are playing the long game but now I’m not sure they are playing at all and maybe have chosen that the closet is what’s best for their family. It’s not my place to accept this even if it’s hard. There’s only so much information I have to what’s going on. But I’m tired of the money grabbing greed. Even though their wealth isn’t personal it feels it when they both are choosing this path for whatever reason I’m not privy to. It feels personal, this could be because I’ve had the worst financial year of my life…it’s hard to watch all the greed and I don’t want to be a part of it anymore. The greed. If it’s not about greed and it’s about protection from my point of view and I’m sure others this is what it looks like. Thousand dollar tickets to the concert, three different albums with different songs on them but the songs you want, limited time vinyls which aren’t limited. Stunting on Christmas at the football game why because she wants those fans to buy movie tickets? $20 to rent concert movie at home. She is already a billionaire. We are about to be in a recession. The girls are not a princess’s trapped in a castle they are grown adults who can make their own decisions even if we don’t understand the decisions they make.

I don’t know where to go from here. It’s no secret I’ve stepped back as many others have. It makes me sad to watch things go this way. I miss the 2018 2019 Kaylor world we had. Maybe this if for my own good to focus on my wedding and my own 2024 instead of watching and waiting for something to happen in other peoples lives. I love Kaylor very much and I’m still rooting for them. The celebrity circus I’m taking a step back from. The real love music muse I’ll always have a place for. 🖤

How in the hell was “Blinded by the lights” in 2020? That shit feels like it was made in 2017! WTF.

And the same year as wap? Time feels wrong

#Wtf #i have no sense of time #time is an illusion #new year thoughts

it's incredible how the euphoria of a new year moves us all when it's exactly the same as always and nothing really changes.. still, it seems hopeful to me and i think that motivation is a good opportunity to do all the things we don't dare

2024

Oy

I think it's apparent by now that setting out clear goals for the year just absolutely does not work for me. I will absolutely eat some of the blame this time; a not-insignificant amount of setbacks are my own dissatisfaction with my work, and my penchant for designing success metrics that are patently absurd for one person. If I were better at not falling into those traps, I would be so much more powerful. Alas.

For that reason and more it has been difficult to even manage basic tasks over the past 365 days. I don’t think I've struggled as hard with chores or a workable sleep schedule, or even basic hygiene, let alone art, this much at any other point in my life. I'm tapping this out on my phone at 3am right now; it's too damn early to be awake!

I don't know. I had far and away the most successful post I ever made (even if it is derivative of someone else's work) and I did stick to at least one goal and achieve it. It just doesn't feel right to call that a success.

But I will anyway.

I'm going to be kinder to myself. If for no other reason than beating yourself up is a big waste of time and energy, and I need both if I want us out of this garage before this time next year. I certainly have particular things I want to do, but speaking them into existence doesn't make them happen. I think I kind of took the wrong things from that lesson before; it's probably fine if I do talk about the things I work on so long as I share my work in the process. It's the posturing that's the problem.

And if things get kneecapped by outside forces again, I think I can be better about picking myself back up afterward. Or not just letting myself faceplant into the mud; I probably should have had a backup ready BEFORE deleting my bandcamp page, and first order of business is having that ready. I can probably get that done today. No need to do anything extra for it like I had convinced myself previously. (EDIT: go shrek it out it's my oldest stuff!)

After that... who knows? I'll just make stuff. Not making stuff sucks and is bad for you. Self-harm-b-gone. The boog is alive, and she is ready to keep circling the light.

I'll make 2024 better for me. I hope it's better for everyone.

I declared to my brother (and he said I vibrated with happiness) that I’m an author, artist, and boyfriend… and I never thought I could be any of those things, but I am.

I am all those things.

And one day, even if I’m not pregnant now (question mark?), I’ll be a parent too.

Today is Stuff Your Kindle Day for fantasy books. Not like I needed a bigger TBR pile. Not that I will have time to read with everything that’s already looming in January. Still, I had to go and get 5 new fantasy books I’d never heard of, simply because it feels like additional armor for the new year and all its challenges to come. I’ve braced myself with fantasy. Nothing wrong with that, is there?

"Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,

The flying cloud, the frosty light;

The year is dying in the night;

Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.

Ring out the old, ring in the new,

Ring, happy bells, across the snow:

The year is going, let him go;

Ring out the false, ring in the true.

Ring out the grief that saps the mind,

For those that here we see no more,

Ring out the feud of rich and poor,

Ring in redress to all mankind.

Ring out a slowly dying cause,

And ancient forms of party strife;

Ring in the nobler modes of life,

With sweeter manners, purer laws.

Ring out the want, the care, the sin,

The faithless coldness of the times;

Ring out, ring out my mournful rhymes,

But ring the fuller minstrel in."

- Alfred Lord Tennyson, Ring Out, Wild Bells

the biggest thing I learned from 2022 is that love is really what makes the world go round…it’s a transformative force, it heals, it gives life…one of Allah swt’s 99 names is al hobb (the love) for a reason. for me 2022 was about learning to see love everywhere even in the smallest of things and I’m so grateful for all the love I was able to give and to find. el7amdullah truly

It is the last day of the year.

Take a moment to think on all the issues you faced. All those tough situations that you had to go through. Think on all the problems you tackled, all the mistakes you made and the lessons it taught you. And think on the things you feel most regretful about

But also do think about all the memorable moments you lived through. All those happy memories you have. All the small smiles, the laughs, the inside jokes, that one spontaneous trip with your friends, that one rainy day when you made yourself cozy in the bed, that one cold evening when you made yourself hot chocolate, all the drunk partying, the self care days and the lazy days.

Think about all the people you met this year. All the people, new and old. Those old friends who drifted apart. That one crazy person who you clicked with instantly. The crazy one night stands, the half broken friendship, the heartbreaks, the loves. The family and friends who still stand strong with you.

Think on every little moment of the last year. To those who had a very easy and happy year, hope you have an even better year.

Those who struggled but still made it through, I hope the new year will be worth all the struggles.

To those who just survived the last year, it'll all be alright.

Happy new years folks!

Happy new year to you guys 🎉 uwu

A recap of my year.

The same things as always: Depression and problems in my close relationships giving me more depression. :'3 And to feel like leaving the "chat room" from time to time.

It's getting harder and harder for me to enjoy art and it's the only thing I have left. ú~ù

I hope next year things will get better although I doubt it, wow how pessimistic I am. XD

But hey, that's what happens when things don't get better in 10 years...

However, I feel this year is different because my survival instinct switch has been flipped. And all it took was a category 5 hurricane that almost destroyed my entire city. XD Man, I'm a tough nut to crack.

Again, I am writing this later than usual but this is for 2023. Queue lets go.

I always say I never have any hopes or expectations. But it’s not entirely accurate. This year needs to be different. There needs to be change. So I am going to write out hopes but there will need to be the action on my part! 2022 I was just full on depressed and anxious. I only realise how bad it was upon reflection. I don’t think that will go away within the space of a year but I need it to not be as heightened. I hope that when I next look back on this I’m in a good mental space. In all aspects of life.

So, the most important thing for me this year is that I need to leave CC. ASAP. It is one of the biggest causes of my mental state. So I need to leave. I hope I do that in 2023 and more importantly I find something in media and entertainment. Something that I actually enjoy and does not require me to work 24/7 and is actually of my own interests. This is the main thing for me this year. If I can do that I *hope* there’ll be a big and better difference in my life. And it will be helping me to advance more into the creative roles that I want to do. So I hope I also make progress on that side.

I also actually want to have the time to do hobbies and have hobbies. I hope that I learn to play some piano, that I get better at playing tennis, that I go out more and explore London. I hope that I travel more this year too. I want to go on at least one holiday every month. Essentially enjoy life and actually live and not just be all about work. I hope I go to more grand prix, i already saw the 1975 but i would love to see them again and meet Matty, maybe even go see Harry Styles!!! Chances are slim but would love to meet Harry and Timothee (again!)

I’ll be turning 27 and i’m ngl, i dread that number so much because I think of the fact that, that is officially late 20s and closer to 30 than to 20. That is fucked up because i still feel like i’m 22. I hate this so much! But mainly because I think I haven’t even achieved anything or close to and i’m almost 30. *cries* I hope that when this happen, as it is a privilege anyway to age, and that by the end of the year , i will be better about ageing, and the idea of timelines and achievements and what should be done at what age. Need to stop comparing and caring. So yeah have a better mindset about that.

I don’t know what else to add. But this year is going to be so scary and i just dont know what to expect from it and where i’ll be, what i’ll be thinking and what state i’ll be in. Like i’m genuinely scared. I hope future me when you’re reading this, most importantly that you are happy, healthy, content and ok. (8th February 2023)

I've just really been reflecting on this year tonight and I've come to the realisation that life is so beautiful. I really struggled this year, it was maybe one of the hardest years of my life. I dealt with one of the worst depression episodes and life felt uncontrollable. I'm an idealist and a romanticist but it often works against me. I feel really hurt and disheartened when things don't go the way I've planned. But it's also a strength. When those beautiful moments do come I hold onto them so dearly. The horrible moments I experienced this year were traumatising and I thought about leaving life behind many times. But there have been so many small experiences that have been so special. I want to experience more moments like that and I think that the pure joy you feel in those moments outweighs anything once the feeling of depression has passed. I want to keep living. I'm so incredibly thankful to my friends who always met with me, studied with me and talked to me even though I felt so alone. I've done so much this year and it feels incredible. I actually started reflecting because I was disappointed with how this year had turned out. That's why I think it's so important to treasure the small moments because your mind will always go to the worst first. I'm kinda just rambling to myself but I don't ever wanna forget the feelings I have now.
