New Year New Me

Last year was tough. I went from living in a trailer to living in a car, and then to a motel room after my mom had a stroke on Father’s Day in 2024. It was a hard road, but that’s the past now. It’s time for a new me in this new year. I’ve set some goals to accomplish before 2025 ends.

One big decision I’ve made is to attend my first furry convention. I’m excited but also know the challenges, like raising the money and navigating hotel logistics. Another goal is to write more blogs on this site. I plan to keep them relatable and grounded, giving glimpses into my life without oversharing. This year, I’m focusing on self-improvement and embracing who I am. I hope you’ll join me on this journey of growth as I explore new places, lose weight, and become healthier along the way.

My goals this year are more realistic than in the past. First, I aim to pay off my car loan so I can truly own it. Second, I want to grow my presence on YouTube and Twitch, incorporating content creation and vlogging. Third, I plan to move to Texas, near Dallas, for a fresh start. Fourth, I want to reconnect with friends I’ve made over the years and spend quality time with them. My health is also a priority this year—developing a consistent routine that includes better eating habits, regular exercise, and managing my stress. Lastly, I’m committed to stepping out of my comfort zone, especially when it comes to dating.

This year is all about embracing change, chasing dreams, and finding happiness.
