Seems we didn't really have a "new year's resolutions" thread last year, although Narz asked for our goals this year (link to my goals).
I had not really put down much, which was more or less achieved.
So... besides the job all more or less uneventful/as expected.
I had not really put down much, which was more or less achieved.
- I added some weight in the gym, but it turns out only 10 kg for squat and deadlift from last year. I thought it was 20.
- My own weight is more or less stable, although I had aimed to reduce it a bit
- I ran a 10k in personal record time (10.55 km in 59.01 minutes)
- Managed to figure out one of my allergies (Kiwis), and am doing better now
- I found a new job, as I got bored with my old one. Now not anymore in academia, but in drug regulatory affairs. Let's see if that will be interesting. I have already attended 2 meetings on European level, and will give input this year for proposed future regulations of the current most hyped tech topic... so I think career-wise this is well on track . Social interactions at work are still lacking though, but it has just been one month.
- Published an article in a good journal (proud of that one), have been co-author on 3 more, and another one with me as main author will probably be accepted this month.
- I went to quite some concerts, and made a bucket list for bands to see
- Won a price at our pub quiz (we were 3rd, but teams #1+2 had too many members), and made another time a decent place (shared 4th out of 24)
- I visited 3 friends in Denmark, had a great time
- Managed to keep up with the majority of my friends, although I need to invest coming year a bit more into 2-3 of these friendships. I lost one friend, but I fully blame her
- we ran a raffle here at the forum, had a good April Fool's joke, and had contact with some devs and some academic researchers. And the forum is still alive, despite no Civ7! We also got a Mastodon account running, as well as an Instagram one, but lost access to our Twitter. Social media was overall successful.
- nothing new on the dating side, had 2 crappy dates, and that's it
So... besides the job all more or less uneventful/as expected.
