This year I 23M lost my childhood dog, my grandfather, totaled my car, and got broken up with by my ex gf.

So, I endured a path to work on myself. Though I’ve moved out, my mom got a new puppy to keep her and my dad company. I call my family WAY more since my PopPop passed. I rebuilt my entire car myself, literally totaled-> showroom quality. I realized through therapy that my relationship was toxic and not a healthy one. I spent 150ish days at sea sailing around the world, and developing my engineering skills.

In 2023, I hope to pursue some new (and old) hobbies. I want to get into running, jogging, and being outdoors more. I’m moving to a new city with some of my childhood friends and got some great job offers (I graduate college in May). I just want to keep working on myself and I would also like to lose 35-40 pounds in 2023, and also try lifting weights.

Overall, this has been a record hard year for the books, it ultimately, the character development is real.
