What I did for New Year’s

Baldurs Gate II Island
2024/1/1 Edited to

... Read moreCelebrating New Year’s can take many forms, from extravagant parties to intimate gatherings. For many, the best memories come from spending quality time with loved ones. This year, I chose a cozy celebration playing Baldur's Gate 3 and enjoying a homemade feast, which included delicious mac and cheese, air-fried potatoes, and freshly baked rolls. If you’re looking for ideas for a laid-back New Year’s celebration, consider organizing a game night with your family or friends. Not only does it create a fun atmosphere, but it also allows for shared laughter and memories that can last a lifetime. Gaming setups with comfortable seating and tasty snacks can transform your gathering into a cozy haven. Apart from gaming, cooking together can also enhance the experience. Try preparing a meal as a team activity; it fosters collaboration and creates a sense of accomplishment when everyone enjoys the fruits of their labor. With a simple menu in mind, you can ensure a stress-free cooking experience. As we step into the new year, let’s focus on the importance of our relationships and the joy that simple celebrations can bring.

hii! I just woke up the other day and realized how close i am to school starting again 😔. It also made me realize that all of the doomscrolling I did this summer has probably messed up my attention span, so I thought I would do a post on focus to help anybody else who might have similar issues ☺️

Things I would tell my 18 year old self:
Now that I’m 25 years old, I have had so many experiences now then I did when I was 18 years old. My mind was focused on partying, finally having my “independence”, and becoming a legal adult. Of course, as we grow we learn. So these are the thing I would tell my 18 year old self (and you guys)!
