Challenge #4:
Since this is the start of a new year, this challenge will be to set your own goals!

I looked over the goals I set from last year to see where I was and then set them accordingly. A lot of repeats, but some amendments too. :)

Fannish:
  • Write fanfic again and find joy/inspiration in doing so. Last year, I wanted to participate in less exchanges and write for myself more and I ended up doing way less exchanges, but that was because I just wasn't inspired at all/slightly becoming detached from fandom. So I'm hoping this year will be more positive

  • Complete my ficcish obligations - there are some way overdue ones that haunt me and I would like to actually get them out of my head.

  • Try to write for a new fandom. I think I would like the challenge.

  • Be more present and active, in both my DW and in my chosen fandom spaces. I think I get tied up to one spot (I drifted off to Tumblr for a brief period) and forget about the rest and I would like some balance.

    Non-Fandom:
  • Travel. I said this last year too, but somehow it got away from me. This year, I would like to get out of my city and preferably the state.

  • Get organized. Another repeated goal. I have finally started parting ways with clothes and things i don't use, and I need to continue with that.

  • Be a better cook. I love to bake and I do enjoy cooking what I know, but I want to try new recipes. My mom is a great cook and I need to take advantage of that and have her teach me, especially my favorite foods that she makes.

  • Learn a new skill. I tend to get stagnant and comfortable and I'm pretty bad about being ... bad at things/not good immediately. I'd like to test my comfort zone.

  • Exercise consistently. I go through periods when I'm good and then weeks where I just fall off and I want to stay active on a regular basis in some way, even if that means just taking walks around the neighborhood.

    Good luck with all your goals! If I ever wrote out my yearly goals I think there'd be a lot of overlap with yours haha, I'm constantly thinking about how I need to work on writing more, exercising, getting organized, etc. There's just so much to do!!
