Hello! Happy New Year. 🙂 2023 is off to a good start, and as we usher in another year of change and growth, I'd also like to reflect on what had occurred in the past 12 months. Overall, 2022 was a more-eventful year for me compared to 2021 (which had been sleepier in comparison), with …

Happy Birthday, Mom
Today is my mom's birthday. Sadly, she passed away almost three years ago, and whenever her birthday rolls around every year, it's always hard to believe she's gone. No more celebrations with cake and gifts, a special day for the woman who gave birth to me and raised me to be who I am today. …

My Goals for 2022
Hey, folks! Several weeks ago, Paul from The Captain's Speech nominated me (thanks, man!) for this 2022 goals/resolutions type of tag, and I thought about participating in it. It's funny, because I had wrote about my goals in my New Year's post earlier this month (which I'd actually wrote prior to Paul publishing his post). …
12 Photos for 12 Months (2021 Review)
Happy New Year, folks! As I'd done the previous year, this post is my review of 2021-- in photo form. In general, my 2021 year was more-or-less similar to 2020, as the pandemic was still going on. However, I will say that 2021 was slightly more-exciting, as I got to travel a bit more within …
