So much happened in 2024 that I’m not even sure where to begin... but I guess the best place to start is at the beginning. First, I landed an incredible job that allowed me to support my family. With that stability, I did something even more special—I took my partner on her very first vacation ever, fully paid for by me. We went on a cruise, and she absolutely loved it. By the end of the trip, she was in tears of joy, saying it was the most fun she’d ever had. A few months later, I took another big step and asked her to move in with me. It was nerve-wracking but ultimately one of the best decisions I ever made! Then came our little addition to the family—our son, Otis (well, not a human son, but our adorable puppy!). He brought so much extra joy to our already happy life.

To top it all off, I joined The Deep Blue (#notacult) and discovered the wonderful host Noria and the amazing community shes built. All in all, 2024 was nothing short of amazing. Honestly, it was probably the best year of my life!

My family means the most to me—everything else feels secondary. We’re not perfect and have our share of arguments, but our bond has grown stronger than ever. It's what truly keeps me going. As the male head of the family, especially with my father not present, I have responsibilities to uphold. But this is my greatest joy.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.mRtyHq0Q
I want to be more committed to my tasks and finally break free from procrastination. I've often delayed the things that matter most to me, and it's been holding me back. However, I believe I can make progress, one step at a time.

The main thing that I focused on for 2024 was healing. My father passed away in October 2023 so in 2024, I had many firsts that I had to get through. His first birthday, my own first birthday, a first full year without him. I had to learn how to let my tears flow freely rather than having to constantly bottle my emotions. I also learned that not everyone is going to be there for you all the time, even those closest to you, because life is very finite and you shouldn't spend a lot of time dwelling in the past and, instead, try to live in the present and make the most out of those moments that you have left with them. So, in his memory, my family and I decided to go on holidays abroad, from Switzerland and Canada all the way back to our home country of the Philippines (to visit relatives for 5 weeks and so that they can also see him one last time because we had him cremated and brought along his ashes in a nice and ornate wooden urn). It was a year of grieving but also a year of reflection and honouring his memory. So, I guess, the good that came out of 2024 was being able to learn some of these life lessons gradually over the span of several months through grief and acceptance.

To me, it was finally being able to see and realize what means a lot to me. What’s truly important to me, what gives me purpose and strength to keep fighting for this life.

I’m very thankful of my friends and family who helped me find myself again.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.mRtyHq0Q
Not dying, honestly. The future is scary due to how unpredictable it can be, after all. Other than that, all I want for 2025 is to be able to come back home and see my friends and family again.

At the start of the year I spent a couple days with a friend that I quickly developed feelings for as I got to know them. Even though nothing came of it, I'm just happy I got to meet someone that was so sincere and supportive. Still probably one of the only people I feel like I can just be myself around

Being alive.

I cried so much in 2024 due to a lot of things that I easily want to forget everything that tested me during that year. From financial woes, work expectations, family problems, everything felt endless. It felt that everything was the end of me

But despite that, we're still here.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.mRtyHq0Q
Become more brave and capable. If I can't be the best at my craft, I just hope I'll be better and trying every day. I once dreamt of chasing everything at the top, but now I think it's just fine to start subtly. After all, we're just here to exist--and hopefully our own little actions would make an impact somehow.

Looking back 2024 was a year of many good first experiences, at the time I rememeber feeling anxious and nervous about many of them but now I feel like I've grown, even if just a tiny bit, from those experiences.

I felt like the luckiest guy in the world many times last year. I'm truly grateful for my family and my friends.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.mRtyHq0Q
I want to learn something cool, I'm thinking between learning a new language because learning english was pretty cool (felt like unlocking internet 2.0), learning how to draw since I used to like drawing a lot when I was in school, or learning to play a musical instrument.

Overall, for me personally, the fact that I got my health checked.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.mRtyHq0Q
Less bullshit overall, both from family and outside of family. (I know it's extremely unlikely because people are unwilling to change.) Getting employed for once since apparently nobody wants you working in this (shitty) country but they always complain when the workforce leaves the country. What a bunch of hypocrites. End of active wars in the world. (Again, extremely unlikely)

# data[].attributes.body
I'm grateful to have met all the people I did this year. I was able to join a few new communities, and even had a few people commission music from me for the first time, which was(and still kind of is) a surreal experience. I'll leave a track I made here for anyone to listen.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.mRtyHq0Q
1.Not heckin dying. The future looks scary this year. :/ 2. Maybe to do more composition and creative things, assuming academics don't crush me. 3. Maybe releasing my first ACTUAL game, or at least getting significantly closer to that point. Heck, maybe I'll livestream the development process. 4. For the people around me to be happy and healthy. Please love yourselves, everyone! 

# data[].attributes.body
Probably the best thing was getting to know this lady. School, Work, Adulting. All that is already hard in itself so, it was really amazing having someone i could share that with and look forward to talking to amidst all those during the whole year.

Maybe to be able to tell her "merry christmas" again this year, and look forward to telling her "happy new year" next year. Because after she brought up a topic- sadly, it doesn't look that way anymore haha.. (Would also love it if it doesn't have to hurt a lot then XD)

I could go on & on, but I'll discuss what I have previously written on this. In early 2024, I predicted it'd be a "developmental" one for me, meaning I'd create & complete projects. I'm happy with what I was able to accomplish this year, from a fan project for my all-time favourite racing game to a 4+ hour video essay discussing OCD, one of the most stigmatized & misunderstood mental illnesses out there, to learning a game's level editor. I also did some personal & academic web development projects that will help me tremendously in my professional life! All in all, I'm thoroughly satisfied with how this year went for me, & for all the people + relationships I've developed as well! I discovered Noira at the tail end of it via "The Loneliness Epidemic" video! 💙

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.mRtyHq0Q
1) An additional personal webdev project to add to my resume. 2) To complete a video essay for a game that's fundamentally changed my vocabulary & perspective on life. 3) Talking about important topics that aren't covered enough or not addressed in a meaningful way. 4) To engage in a variety of communities + conversations & educate others on the importance of avoiding getting caught up in social bubbles + echo chambers.
