I'll be traveling for a year with my girlfriend. We've wanted to do it for years. Finally saved up enough. Starting with a few months in China. Can't wait to eat everything. Also I get to put all my Chinese into practice.

Elections for Belgium are next year. We are in track to become the largest left wing party, so it's an exciting time. It's federal and communal elections at the same time.

My current training for my job will end next year so I hope to keep developing so that I'll be able to fully do my job. It's going well at the moment and my employer is positive about me.

I don't really have personal goals yet. This year wasn't the best with lots of anxiety for some reason and I hope I can better manage it next year.

I have some trips and concerts planned already. I will probably spend my summer in Sweden where I will work on the remote cabin my father in law bought there recently. Looking forward to it.

I plan on getting a job after a year or so of unemployment, like it for a few months, then hate it, get burnt out, and get fired after 1.5 years. So, you know, the usual.

Spend less time on lemmygrad and more doing work.

Idk. I'm bad at planning a week ahead, let alone a year.

More range time in between college classes and finding ways to work with my org from where I'm physically at

I might do my 1 year in Army early, thought about it and the pros (I shoot cool guns) outweighed the cons

I haven’t really thought about it. I know this want your intention but this post got me thinking about making goals for myself to accomplish next year. Thank you!

Obviously I’m going to be doing stuff, but a little bit of it is fairly personal or identifiable so I don’t know if I want to say it.

Semester 3 of university, mostly. In my next polisci class I get the same professor from semester 1! I wonder if he’ll recognize me. Other than that maybe continue studying Portuguese.

maybe stop drinking depending on how the year goes

Buying a house is something that's been on my list for a while and something I have been seriously looking at it recently. The mortgage wouldn't be an issue (in fact, less than my current rent) but the down payment is rough. It doesn't help that even as a permanent resident, banks are reluctant to issue loans to anyone with a foreign name.

Somewhat related to that would be adopting a dog once I can have one again. I love my snakes but living in a place that allows dogs again would be great.

I intend to start some sort of Portuguese language compsci course/help group thing to serve as basis for organising. There's definitely not enough material out there for people who don't speak much English.

And hopefully I'll also manage to remain my current mental stability for a full year for the first time in half a decade.

It'll also be local election year in Brazil too, but everything is in flux right now with the "leftist" government implementing austerity and the main communist party being split. No idea how that's gonna go, but probably not good.

I actually just decided this these past few days but I think I'm going to start looking for another job.

I'm unionized and have a chill job, all things considered, with good pay and good benefits and I work remote so I've felt like I wanted to stay forever because it feels like I get paid and protected to stay at home and do routine at this point but it's also kinda dead-end. There's literally no other thing I can grow toward at my work, I've already asked, so it feels like I'd just sit with this same position for the rest of my life. There are worse things I could do, which I know because I've done them and this is the best job I've ever had, but I'm not really happy either. It's a lifetime better than where I was before I started but after some years, especially just sitting at home this entire time, it kinda weighs on me as meaningless. It is good work that is aligned with my politics and I would never be ashamed among comrades to say what I do but I also just feel like I want to expand a bit more in my life. I have some connections in something else so I'm going to feel out possibilities soon. We'll see how it goes. Holding on for another year and saving wouldn't be bad either but no one's getting younger.

Otherwise, I'll just coast.

On second thought, I'm just gonna celebrate Kissinger's death all year. Rest in Piss.

good luck with your uni journey, I'm going to graduate next summer. And I hopefully will get an offer for a doctorate and move there with my partner.

Graduated school... hopefully

Get fitter, cut down on the self medication.

Hopefully try to get my music off the ground, tired of being broke but also trying to recover from years of trauma so I guess we'll see

I finally have joined the union in the coal mine i work at. I plan to give my sister a huge christmas gift and save money for a house.

i just which i could maintain a fucking job for a year, solve some issues so i can get organized.

My personal goal is to launch a webcomic/graphic novel project I've been contemplating for a while. A fun adventure story that isn't infested with liberal ideology subtext for comrades to enjoy, but also is subtle enough that one can also show it to liberal friends and introduce them to some basic theory in the process.

I want to get more involved with organizing next year. I want to go to more social gatherings, make more friends. I want to pass my exams. I want to make more money, maybe get a side job. I also want to be fully out as a trans woman next year

less ETOH, more bike

also, congrats on college. shit rules

Lose weight and try to get into another position at my job.

Trying to convince my parents that it's totalling cool that I have to take another year of college because I failed differential equations and they shouldnt be upset at all or anthing

Expand scientific knowledge in new areas. Pick up new hobbies/build new projects. Organize more/be more active in my community. Read more books. Resist going crazy from my cats or kids. Eat cheesecake and sushi at some point, not necessarily the same point.
