I usually make this kind of post around the new year with DrGAKMAN updates, but I'm running late on all that. 2024 was...crazy...I thought we were headed to the end with how much the "bad guys" were winning. While I still think the end is near and there's still so much I want to do reach more people with the Gospel of salvation through Christ, part of me is relieved at how the American election turned out (as well as how quickly it was finished) and I felt some weight off my shoulders and hopeful that maybe we have more time before the end.
In that though, I rested and laxed on some 2024 goals and even though I feel we might have more time, I've squandered a chunk of that time on things I shouldn't be messing with. Not gonna focus on that here as I know the flesh is weak and I will always have to battle my vices. I did make some progress on my Blogger (keeping up with updating my MYSTERY ministries, The DrGAKMAN Secret Menu, Nintendo AGENDA, PokéMon GO BWTB pages) hacking some things and actually making new Secret Menu items so that's good. Trying to make more efforts to be a better person, friend, brother and worker and (futility) trying to work on my budget/debt.
Still though, I always feel I'm way behind 'cos I do waste the tiny bit of free time I have on stuff I shouldn't. I have to say that again, this last years VGA's were trash (Nintendo should just do their own awards show) and the only awards show that matters is Mega 64's Todd & Aaron Awards:
2025 kinda off to a good start, gettin' some things done and while I have so many things to do, I am also going to purposely make time to enjoy what I've got which is difficult for me 'cos I'm always thinking about other projects I should work on. I have to keep busy though, to keep from getting distracted by my vices. I want to work on my Blogger pages more, make new ones and work on newer Secret Menu items, but I also have a lot of games & shows/movies I haven't finished so I need to enjoy those more. I'm already almost done with Maison Ikkoku (which is a long series, thanks to Sarah for watching it with me) and keeping up with Switch 2 news, my taxes and such...I gotta do a BWTB year-end video (even though we're in February) 'cos I hit lvl 50 in PokéMon GO!
I have to spend less time on BS and take some time to enjoy the time we have, but also not get too comfy 'cos there's more work to do!
