Hello. Happy new year.
Deciding to be creative this year isn’t exactly a new year’s resolution, and it’s definitely not the first time I’ve said to myself that ‘this year, I want to create more stuff’, but another year and I’m saying the same thing, will I be successful this time?
The first thing I’m doing is my daily insta posts, paired with a mini-blog over on @hellomks_ (yes, it’d be better if there wasn’t an underscore at the end of it, but what can you do).
Planning on writing some more blog content here, travel blog and vlogs, perhaps. And continuing my northern lights bullshit both in pictures and time-lapse.
Last year, maybe even into 2020 as well, I started writing ‘care home stories’, little posts of stories from my time working in the care home, there are a few written already, sat on here, set to private. I may post them and write more when something comes to mind.
Stuart’s Stag/Taskmaster videos are still to be finished, I started a page for those and will hopefully get the rest of the videos done soon and uploaded. Unsure if the page will be made entirely public though – will need to ask the others how they feel about that. Would be good to share though, as the videos are genuinely some of my favourite things I’ve made – which given that I wasn’t sure they’d be any good (through no fault of the contestants) at all, is a great outcome to have.
Only really have one major travel thing planned so far this year, and that is heading back to Disneyland Paris on the 11th of January for a few days. When we went last year, Avengers Campus wasn’t open yet so it gave an excuse to go back, which it was decided we would, at the airport while we waited for our flight home – even going as far as to book the holiday there and then.
I would also like to get to Europa Park or Phantasialand this year, as well. Time will tell if that happens though. I could, perhaps, also be persuaded to go back to Disneyland Paris for their Halloween event(s), as video from that last year looked fun and slightly more ‘scary’ than Mickey’s Not-So-Scary events in Florida.
I’ve seen a lot of people crying out about how bad their 2022s were, I can’t say mine was awful. It, perhaps, wasn’t amazing. But nothing to cry about. If 2023 matches it, I’ll be happy enough, if it surpasses it, even better.
To conclude, I wanna create more and get better at paddle-boarding – which wasn’t mentioned previously, but is definitely something that needs to happen. Losing weight would also be nice, but I’ll almost certainly fail at that, like I do every other time I actually attempt it, so I won’t put pressure on myself for that one.
K, bye.
