Stayin’ Alive

You’re singing Bee Gee’s, right? You’re welcome 😀

Hello people! It’s been so long since I last posted that I don’t even know what to do anymore, lol. I wasn’t completely idle on here though, a while back I moved to self hosting so I did a few changes here and there and I will probably change a few more in the future so there’s that.

How are you all? Hope you had a good time these past months and that you managed to rest a little during winter holidays. I can’t say I really rested, I mean I did rest, but I don’t feel rested… does that make sense at all?

I don’t know how to wrap up 2025 in nice few sentences, it was a weird year, although I learned a lot. It was a weird year professionally, it was a lot of frustration, stress and the overall feeling of dread. Towards the end I felt like one of those mice on a wheel, running and running for some cheese, and tricked that the cheese cube is going to be bigger next time, but it isn’t. We are rushed to do more, to do it quickly, to innovate all the time and “raise the bar” each year and I am sick of this.. It probably will get crazier this year.

Anyways… I normally don’t set any goals or expectations for the next year, but I am thinking it will be cool to do that once and see the results at the end!

Let’s start with a few wins for me for 2025:
– read 18 books
– bonded with my little furry baby
– pet the dogs from the shelter
– took some cool photos
– taught some people (~90) Power BI at work
– joined some courses at H…uhmm…ogwarts
– fell in love with painting again
– saw Opeth live again <3
– joined the gym
– started a personal tech project

Things I want to do in 2026:
– read more books, lol – I set my goal to 24 – let’s go!
– read more about topics I am interested in – science, tech, brain, and so on
– pet more dogs!
– take care of my furry baby
– take more cool photos and print more of them
– more astrophotography – catch Saturn or Andromeda
– take care of my health
– distance myself from social media / phone – get screen time to 1 hour only
– at the same time, show my photography work more – BTW – I have a new profile for my black & white photography – @lifeinmonochr0me
– be more active, maybe swim?
– finalize courses
– keep working on the projects
– try to keep this blog more active
– learn more tools/technologies, like Tableau or Adobe Illustrator

I think that is all from me this time, as a warm up for the next posts.. hopefully soon!
Let me know if you spot any errors on the blog, like I said I am working on it still.

Take care!
