I guess my goal for this year of 2023 is to actually save money. It's a bit more ambitious of a goal than my usual "survive and have next month's rent already put aside". I kinda cruise through life without goals and dreams so while having money isn't a particularly inspiring goal to work towards, but it's something.

This is a pain because I need a new mattress.... and phone... and those are both chunks of money so I keep putting it off... I'll just be smarter, more thrifty, live less in the moment a lil bit and remember I have a future ahead of me....!!!

The secondary goal is to keep practising japanese! I've managed to keep it up since around christmas, and while it's baby steps every day I am taking those daily baby steps! Learning a language is fun, and much more manageable than a vague goal like "get better at art!". Why learn japanese? To read japanese materials and games! Why improve at art? to uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

(I need to get back to drawing...)

I'm still in that beginner motivation period but the fact I've kept it up for like 3 weeks now is something I don't manage with a lot of things I pick up so I'm jazzed about it.

Otherwise I'd like to make more character dolls. I have much overdue comms to do.... and I want to improve in that area too. That can tie into my "save up money" goal obviously but ahhhhh I wish it wasn't my career.... aaahhhh.... I just wanna make dolls for fun...

BEING PRUDENT AND PRACTICING FRUGALITY IS AN ADMIRABLE GOAL, FOR CERTAIN!!! And, obviously... peace of mind would probably be very nice. HOPEFULLY THE PROGRESS ON JAPANESE KEEPS GOING WELL, TOO!!! All these baby steps are gonna add up to like a bajillion adult steps, eventually, and then... you'll be able to read such incredible materials as... "She Loves To Cook And She Loves To Eat"...!!!?!

Hopefully 2023 is kind to you!!!
