Dear 2025,

Thank you for teaching me such valuable lessons. I laughed, learned, and loved. I also cried, got hurt, and broke my heart. I deepened some relationships and distanced from others. I learned what I am actually supposed to look like in the mirror (real) and I’m learning how to love her in the different ways she needs.

Some of the highlights from 2025 include:

  • Dodging the fires with friends in Newport Beach
  • Chum friends going to Disneyland, Disney California Adventure, and Universal Studios
  • Biking with a long-time, long-distance friend for the very first time
  • Venice CicLaVia with friends
  • Opening card packs from a friend
  • Starting martial arts
  • Chum friends PowerPoint nights: Work Edition
  • 3rd Annual Beach Day with friends
  • Pokémon Worlds in Anaheim
  • Biking with friends from Santa Monica to Redondo Beach
  • Six Flags with friends
  • Independence Day with friends
  • Starting music lessons
  • Halloween, my Hornet costume, and playing Hornet’s theme wearing my Hornet costume
  • Learning how my hair is supposed to work
  • My mom moving to California
  • Thanksgiving Games with friends
  • Starting to do more crosswords and the minute cryptic
  • My first solo trip and Christmas in New York
  • New Year’s Eve with my friends

In this new year, I will focus on cultivating my well-being. Health, pleasure, and cognition, baby!

This is going to be fun 🙂
