June has come and gone and it’s bizarre to think we’re already halfway through 2021. This last year and a half has been such a bizarre experience in general, with the ebb and flow of the spread of COVID changing so much of the status quo for everyone. My own personal journey through all this … Continue reading Thinking About Where to Go from Here

I started it back at the end of May/beginning of June in 2018 as an experiment of sorts, tracking my time and effort spent on language learning, going over the stuff that has worked for me and the stuff that hasn’t, … Continue reading Entering Year Four of Blogging

I’m not sure how applicable any of this is … Continue reading Passing the Time Writing
We’re officially in 2021 now, and while things don’t feel all that much different, I’m choosing to look forward optimistically and hope for this to be a better year. A lot has changed since the last of these year-start blogs I wrote, with my life overall improving despite other difficulties presenting themselves. This is when … Continue reading Yearly Theme for 2021
