It's been about six months since I moved across the country. Living with others have brought a lot of new challenges. For a time, I figured I sort of lost myself. There's so much going on in life that it's pulled me away from what I love, even tokusatsu. Everything else felt like a waste of time if I wasn't striving towards speedrunning perfection.

However, this year I already feel a lot better about things. I'm becoming a far better cook, my work is finally stabilizing to a point where I'm not hopping on interviews constantly, and I'm feeling more in tune with who I thought I lost.

Recently, I got most of the manga I own shipped over to my new place. It fits well on a nightstand I purchased that makes this new home feel like the home I once had.

While I only own two volumes, 20th Century Boys is a story that has stuck with me for a long time. I write in my spare time as a hobby, and I think outside of Katsuhiro Otomo, Naoki Urasawa is my biggest inspiration. It's been about... two years since I reread the first volume?

I have no idea how the story ends yet, but the first few pages reinvigorated all the love of which I previously had for the story. Truly, it is such a marvel how he is able to reel me in from chapter one. When it comes to mysteries, I really look no further than Urasawa.

This year, I'd like to watch more movies and read more. I'd like to be more relaxed and give more time to me as a person. Maybe I'll ship all of my ShF figures here, too. I was hesitant initially to do so because my living situation since university has been temporary, but if this year signifies one thing it is: being you, the best you one can be.
