It’s a new year, so let’s set some goals! These goal categories are listed in order of priority, so if I don’t meet the later ones, I’m fine with that. I tried to set reasonable amounts so that I don’t burn myself out.

In my last blog post, I announced that I would be hosting my first ever panel virtually on my Twitch channel. Shortly after announcing that, a friend messaged me to tell me that the Semi-Formal Ball that they typically host at Animefest would be streaming online the same day as my Adobe panel.
