So I felt like making a thread about 2018 as it is now coming to a close.
How was your year? Did you achieve what you set out to do?
What went right? What went wrong?
I'm gonna go on story time about mine.
Let's first go back to the end of 2016 I wrote this on this very forum:
2017 did indeed get its shit together. I met my current partner and bought a flat with a cheaper mortgage than the rent I had before closer to my work.
Fast forward to 2018: my mum got better, unfortunately there is no cure for bone marrow cancer but she's holding on.
I proposed to my girlfriend and am now engaged! We travelled a fair bit: Barbados, Croatia, and Venice which is something important for us.
Work has been a bit boring, I've been in the same position for too long I think but I still enjoy it enough to stay (and I have good benefits).
So life's been steadily improving and I have no real complaints, I'm happy.
Hopefully 2019 doesn't fuck things up somehow! All I want from it is more of the same.
We already have plans: going to Greece to meet my fiance's family in person, a trip to the dominican republic around Easter.
I do feel a bit strange not having a master goal like I used to (meet someone, buy a property etc..). We have a wedding to plan of course
The only thing is that I dropped going to the gym after moving. I still exercise but I lost some gains for sure. Be more active could be my new year resolution

Started with me breaking up with my gf therefore being stuck in an expensive flat on my own in a new city.
Then my mum got diagnosed with bone marrow cancer.
Then one of my friend was sexually assaulted.
2017 better get its shit together.
