OTDフェス

Posted in: 2021 posts | Anime | On This Day

Didn't plan to do this post at first but I realised I had like five posts in the past that were posted on this same day... 

It's an On This Day festival today~ OTDフェス, yay!

Don't mind me, I always act weird(er) when it's near a new year~
イェ────v( ´∀` )v────ィ

Let's start from this list. 
Oh yeah, might not revisit some of the posts though...
Not interested in reading about my past exam results lol 
.';・ゞ(≧ε≦ )ブッ  

2008 ♦ "My Own Appreciation Day"
2009 ♦ "Exam S1 : Results." & "I Won’t Miss You, 2009."
2019 ♦ "Last Day of 2019 at random"
2020 ♦ "Goodbye Year 2020"

'08
An appreciation post, huh.

It might be better if I list down my resolutions for 2009... but that never seldom works for me. Whatever I've planned beforehand always get done like.. almost 50% only... shamefully, unplanned things are (most of the time) given full attention, hence they always get done before I even realize it.
These kind of posts always remind me that past-me and me are not that different XD. There are parts of past-me that stay with the present me.  

*goes through the rest of the post*

Oh god that was one cringy wholesome post. Not going to quote any of that here *feeling a bit embarrassed*... but that's a nice habit. I used to do something similar monthly. I would write down my goals and wishes for that month and then do a follow-up report on it later. I probably included things to pray for and some notes of appreciation but I'm not sure. But, like I said, that's a nice habit to be doing. Like you have this brief moment twice every month to reflect on yourself. (Hmm, should I try doing it again next year?)

'09 
...

I also discovered the hot-tempered/angry side of me. Usually only family and close friends can see my angry side before but university life (minus dorm life) seem to bring out the worst in me.
INTERESTING. That might just be how I react to stressful situations. Because the same thing happened at the place I worked in. Very interesting stuff... totally forgot about this lol. I was savage, let me tell you. I usually don't like getting angry (because it takes efforts and energy - have I ever mentioned that I'm a fan of Houtarou's conserve energy way of life?), but when I do, I either go silent... or go ballistic - I get very sarcastic and sharp-tongued. It's that thing where they say INTPs having outbursts, I think. All the things I saw wrong but kept quiet on will get out of my mouth... and I promise you, it's not going to be a pretty sight. 

Haaah... just realised that I had probably hurt so many people when I do this ...but then again whatever I say out loud are things I believe to be based on facts so they are just truths you don't want to hear. ...That unfortunately have made me an unapologetic person.

'19
*phew*

Probably going to spend the moment the clock and date turns 12am, January 1st 2020 doing nothing special.
...lol thought of staying up today (until tomorrow morning) but then do I really want to do that on the first day of a new year? Although, probably it's not going to make any difference anyway for me. 

Not really looking forward to year 2020... But I might attempt to list what I want to do for the whole year. Nothing big. The main important thing is to take small steps towards them.
Ooof. "Not really looking forward" huh. 

Whatever it is that I posted, I am glad that I made through the end. For me, it's more about committing to doing something everyday which I had lost confidence in doing some time ago.
Oh, right. Today's the last day for 2021. That means I've posted daily for this whole year! ...yeah, definitely going to do a similar summary post for that today. 

Will I do this again for next year? Hmmmmm not sure yet. I kinda liked making blogging a daily habit but for real though, sometimes it's really hard to find things to write about XD

'20
Last post to revisit.

I feel like I need to post something today just to summarise what happened since my last post (which was in October. Wow). 
Teehee... since I have over 300 posts for this year, this is like...not a significant problem anymore...  I don't even remember what I blogged about last month. Ah can't wait for that "summary" post to happen lol

But there's one thing I must include in this post today: Despite what happened this year, my year 2020 is a better year than my last year. I feel like an empty shell in 2019. This year, I feel more alive. Even though I spent most of the year at home. Yes. 
So, is my 2021 a better year than 2020? Honestly, I barely remember 2019 (which is good - the "healing" power of forgetting!) ... but I think, 2021 is the same? It's neither better nor worse for me. (My positive-pessimistic side wanted to add that next year might just be another repeat of year 2020/2021... but let's hope for the best.)

Not going to go out much yet at this time - my paranoid side yells a solid NO - but I look forward to visiting [botanical] gardens in the far future. 
My paranoid side still yells no lol... Occasional outings might be okay but nope.
  
Planned to learn crocheting too but I underestimated the amount of yarns I need so that is going to happen next year I guess.
Sorry to report that I haven't learn crocheting this year too haha... Next year, maybe?

Watched more anime... 
Not sure if I watch more or less this year but recent anime that I watch made me annoyed so I DNF many actually lol. Currently watching the new "Fruits Basket" and it has been a "cleansing" or "purifying" experience so far XD

Still gets annoyed watching horror movies nowadays. I always find something to complain about.
Same. Now I just stop watching halfway.

I actually enjoyed the 2nd season of "Lost in Space" more than the 1st one!
And this year, I also enjoyed watching the 3rd season! In fact, I'm still in that space opera mood that I've been window-shopping for them on Shopee :P
