I haven't posted on my account in ages, my last post was last year's wrap-up, even. (So much for my wish that my next post won't be another wrap-up...) I haven't been active on Twitter or Discord either, or in terms of creative work. Haven't really had the time or drive to create anything new sadly. What matters to me is that I made it to the end of the year, all things considered, and fulfilled last year's resolutions.

I think one of the biggest highlights from this year for me was being able to buy myself a Switch and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. (I also got Ring Fit Adventure, but I haven't gotten around playing it yet, especially with BotW being my focus.) Zelda has been one of my favorite franchises and being able to finally experience BotW had been exciting. I've had a blast with the game so far, it really is an amazing experience. Easily the best open world game I've played, and it's my favorite Zelda next to Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. I also bought a few Amiibo. I don't plan to expand my collection too far, but I think I am starting to see why people love figures and collecting them. They look surprisingly nice too.

I'm going to keep my New Year's Resolution simple:

• Stay alive
  
• Earn my Master's degree
  
• Do my best to be a good person

To be honest, I'm not expecting miracles from next year, but I want to try to keep my chin up. Whenever I can.

And with that, I wish anyone reading this a Happy New Year.

It's that time of the year, so it's time for one of those reflection posts. But it's not just the end of 2019, but the end of a whole decade. So I suppose this post doubles as looking back on my life in the past decade, too.
