To be fair, I am a bit anxious and sleep deprived, tired as well so why not make a post to change my mind and see how people are doing~
Hewo, for those who don’t know me already, I’m Candlea or Stella, both works. Been playing for like 3 years here, I’m 19 and a sophomore in computer engineer and network mastering (I assume that’s how it’s called in English? I’m French )
Life’s been pretty chill, rough but chill! 2023 has clearly not been my best year but there’s still a lot that I got to enjoy, met a crazy amount of new friends, learnt a lot when it comes to coding, informatics etc. Can be proud of myself for reaching this point in life. Time goes so fast, I do miss the times I was just sitting here, watching tv and playing games all day long… I still play games to this day while I’m meant to focus on my studies, not that I don’t, I actually found a balance! :)
There has been a lot of ups and downs. Some tests I had weren’t the easiest… lost people that I really used to know pretty well (IRL and Online as well)… my family wasn’t the most supportive due to what I decided to study etc etc. It was pain, but I managed to live out of it somewhat.
Though I’m still reminiscing about all of these, I’m happy about this year. I wanna take even more care of myself, I wanna improve, I wanna focus on my studies, I wanna succeed so bad and nothing’s gonna be on my way to stop me! Well I hope.
But that’s not the main point of my topic. XD While I got to share my year in a nutshell, how about you guys tell us about great things that happened, sad things are also included and if this little vent can help you empty your bag, I’d be amazing!
Bref, je devrais aller dormir, il est 1h du matin et même si je n’ai pas cours, je n’ai pas envie de m’évanouir…
I hope you’re doing so much better after that happened, follow what you would like to peruse in your future ^^ !!
Anyways, my year was okay, not too bad, not too good, I was mostly neutral about everything this year so nothing new changed! Anyways I hope you have a good night Candle
2023 has been the greatest year of my life so far. Of course it had it’s up and downs but both of those are important, especially to learn from.
This year I was able to do what I love most, which is traveling and just spending time with my loved ones. I’ve discovered two new countries (Portugal and Ireland) and I hope to discover even more next year, and maybe also even outside of europe!
HI CANDLE!!! This year has been pretty crazy, I’m not gonna lie. I’m really happy to hear that you found a balance between your studies and your free time, that’s massively important for your future!! I’m so glad to hear 2023 wasn’t too bad for you :)!!
Anyways, my 2023 was pretty awesome! A lot of bad stuff happened, but I did make sure to enjoy many of the opportunities and chances to have fun!! Made a lot of progress on myself, started a lot of new habits, met a lot of great people, and enjoyed as much as possible with the ones I love!!
Um well my 2023 was both the like worst and kinda good. not even like a week in 2023 I got injured kinda bad which resulted in 6 miserable weeks and than it was fine and than in the summer and AGAIN I got injured… so that was great but not as bad. and than I met some cool people and reconnected with some old friends which made it better but honestly I’d rate 2023 a 5.2 out 10. I am hoping 2024 will be like the year of awesomeness and everything will be great but you never know.
Did a massive monthlong solo 6k mile road trip across the U.S., went to Twitchcon in Las Vegas to meet BBH and Ant, and traveled all over meeting Minecraft friends. I even made it into the Twitchcon outro (I’m the five pixels inside the red).
It was a surreal feeling shaking hands with the man who made this community happen, after so many years. I can’t imagine where I would’ve been and be now if it weren’t for his dedication to this game.
Also managed to land a fairly big opportunity and then throw epically by getting dragged into petty drama. Nothing quite like putting your time, effort, and trust into people just to wake up one day and find yourself completely betrayed. You really have to stop giving in to the crappy people who will drag you down and instead surround yourself with positive influences who will build you up–people who will actually have your back when the time is right instead of turning on you. It’s the only difference between moving forward and lingering in the past.
I can only hope to press on, and maybe 2024 will be the year I find the right people to go far with. I just need another Munchy really. It’s been a pretty alright year; of course forever burdened knowing I could have done better, but I got to play a lot of Minecraft so I had fun I guess.
Mon 2023 s’est bien passé, le plus gros problème pour moi a été de perdre mon cher ordinateur il y a un mois, mais c’était probablement pour le plus grand bien, certaines bonnes parties de 2023 ont été de gagner le classement de la carte 9 de la prison, d’obtenir un objet portant mon nom sur la carte. 10, et bien sûr rencontrer beaucoup de nouvelles personnes, dont toi Stella !
My 2023 was quite amazing, i went outside of europe for the first time and visited South Africa, which was a goal of mine for a long time. Did some crazy things there like catching crocodiles and feeding lions which i probably will never be able to do again… so that was quite awesome.
Also managed to finish college and get a degree in ecology/environmental research after a very long and exhausting internship.
2023 has been a crazy experience overall. I transferred positions at the department I work for and started my dream career doing crime scene investigation! I hit six months recently, which means in six months I’ll be fully confirmed as a technician.
I’ve met a lot of amazing people this year and made some new friends along the way. And Im looking forward to next year’s adventures ^^
I’m in my senior year of high school, I applied to colleges earlier this year (haven’t heard back from all of them all yet). This year has been a really demanding year of high school for me as I chose to take on two very difficult courses at a local college. I feel like I finally somewhat have my life together now with an idea of what I want to do in the future though. Looking forward to a good year and my graduation.
To put it simply it was some crazy ride, I feel i definitely have grown as a person and had some changes, while I’m not where I want to be I am doing well in my eyes at getting there!
To say there hasn’t been any downs would be a lie, I had struggled with a lot of depression and the feeling I had no worth whatsoever, getting a perma mute, losing contact with some friends for the first part of the year, and the worst was my great friend Parasitz who I truly did feel I could share anything with and I didn’t need to aspire to be anyone but myself dying in such a short time that I have knew him. The year has had the most downs in my life but it also had a big upside.
In the year I have managed to finally get unmuted from a permanent mute, make my grades higher then ever, reconnect with some friends I lost contact with, make a TON of new online friends and a good amount of irl as well, find a new and better side of me while keeping the things I did like too, start trying to help myself out of depression, and I even got the wonderful surprise of a nomination for munchy of the year!
Munchy definitely had an impact on me this year and no sentence can express my gratitude.
I think it’s been a mostly great year for myself and I wish you all a better one next year!
it was kinda good at the start, now its kinda meh. Started college and just finished my first semester. It actually wasnt as bad as i thought it would be.
