2017



My resolutions for 2017




1. Work less and have more time for myself, my family, and my friends
    I have worked so hard last couple of months and I was often so exhausted that I could not do anything but rest when I got home. Now I am on a holiday (which is short tho), and looked back that time and feel like that I just lived for the work. That is not good at all. I need to live my life not for work but for myself and enjoy it to the fullest.

2. Go to Spain again 
    I have been there once but just for a few days, and clearly that was not enough for me. I would love to visit several cities in the country.

3. Visit Italy
    I became friends with some Italians lately, so now I have reasons to visit there. It is such a touristy country, so there must be a lot to see and do.

4. Go to one of Asian countries
    I am Asian but somehow I have never been to other Asian countries at all. Some of my friends and my father often go there and I have heard of good things about them so I feel like I need to go to at least one of them.

5. Improve my Spanish
   I have been kinda studying Spanish almost for a year, yet I have not improved as I should have.

6. Be kind to all
    Cliche but so important.

7. Read novels more
    I used to read a lot of novels and short stories (at least one book per week) when I was a high school student so I want to get the routine back, but I think it is good to try to start reading one book per month.

8. Learn how to use Photoshop or Lightroom
    I just need to learn them.

9. Meet new people who have same or similar interests 
    I do not know why but it is kinda hard to find them for me, but I would be happy to get to know them so I need to work on that a bit more harder.

10. Keep seeing a counselor
    I started seeing a counselor in March, and it works for me to clear my mind and to find things I need to focus on.

11. Go clubbing 
    This probably sounds weird but here in Japan clubbing is not so common and so was it for me. About a month ago, I went to a club for the first month in my life and it was very fun and funny, so I want to go again.

12. Go to see a dentist
    This was on the list for last year but I did not go in the end and that means I have not gone for years so...
