2025 has been quite the year with so many things happening at the same time. On a national scale, it has not been a really great year at all, because from the start of the year to this very moment, it has been one bad news after the other. From news of blatant corruption to the ever-increasing insecurities and the fluctuating economies. No one has been safe from the massacre that this year has been, every single person has been collecting wotowoto.
And on the global scale, it’s not really that much different. There is still the economic crisis hitting everyone. And even more, let’s not forget the fact that this is also the year that the crypto space took a really big hit. A hit that many didn’t see coming, and till now, we’re still trying to find our feet.
But all these are eventualities that I have no control over, what about myself? This has been a good enough year. I set so many things for myself to achieve, and I’m happy to say that I did many of them. But I didn’t finish them all. I wanted to be more outgoing this year, but I didn’t go to nearly all the places I hoped to go. I started my content creation journey this year, and it’s been eye-opening, but also quite difficult to juggle with work and the epileptic power system here in this annoying area.
I think one of the biggest changes I made this year was choosing to sit back from going for my national service. Unlike other people who are psyched to go collect their 77k allawee, I’m not in that group chat. My plan had been to go in this November batch, but my school happened, and the results and pass list were released later than expected. And even worse, a policy was signed that meant certain aspects of the clearance process would have to be done all over again.
This was something I did back in 2024 before I left school, so I won’t have to do them all again. When I found out, I just gave up for this year and decided to push my service to next year. I’m not really pressured. If plans change yet again, I’ll still push it to 2027. Or 2028. I’m not in a hurry. Although I just know that I’m definitely going to do it. That’s not something that I would avoid, even if I could.
I also wanted to write another book this year, but it was just so hard to do that while doing so many other things at the same time. That one really hurt me big time. But on the positive side, I started working on my screenplay. Not done with it yet, though, maybe this is a project that would cross over into the new year with me. Let’s see how it goes.
There are a number of things I would have loved to do this year, but for one reason or the other, I didn’t get to. It doesn’t mean I’ll stop trying or time is running out. Every day that I wake up will be another opportunity to try again. That’s how I see life, and that’s why I’m not bothered at all.
Everything will work out eventually.
