2017 - first impressions

[Alolan_Apples]

As it's the end of the first week, I would like to ask you this. How was 2017 so far? Was it good, bad, or okay? I knew that 2016 was a bad year, but I wonder how 2017 went so far to you. Was it any better than 2016 as of now? Do you think this year is gonna be good, or do you think it's gonna be bad?

To me, it started better than in previous years. I went to a casino resort and spent two nights, all within the first week of January. I also started my diet yesterday after all the weight gain that happened since 2015. Other than that, it was pretty ordinary.

My 2017 has been pretty awful so far lol ;A; but on the bright side, it can only go up from here! I never make New Year's resolutions but I am trying to do some things now to better myself that I haven't tried to do for a very long time, so I'd say that's progress.

I'm hoping it's better than 2016... it has to be! ;o;

 

[cIementine]

i've studied more this first week of 2017 than i did for the whole of 2016, probably, so i'm feeling good about that.

Its been pretty good, except the airport shooting at Ft. Lauderdale.

 

[Zireael]

I've been feeling far more motivated and positive about myself than I did last year, so that's a plus. I've realised what I want to do, and what I need to do to get there. Now it's just down to taking those steps and making progress, for the first time in a while I'm feeling optimistic and not so afraid of what could go wrong.

My art is going to be my drive this year!

 

[Limon]

I'm still depressed, watching anime, and playing Overwatch.. so nothing has changed. I just hope this year is better but who knows it could be another garbage year.

 

[Peter]

I've got sick, had a breakout and stressed over uni work that I don't understand for my exams next week; so just like last year so far

 

[visibleghost]

I'll admit there isn't much going on during the first week of January of the year, so I can't say much about 2017 at the moment.

I'm not a fan of Old Man Winter being tempted to spawn snowstorms after snowstorms throughout the rest of the month, due of us living in eastern coast and the temperature being forecast'd higher than average. In my town, it often means that the power outage might be imminent. Last month, we had one snowstorm that managed to cut the power for 18 FREAKING HOURS!! That was enough to render my self a sour person when it comes to winter in general.

Snowstorms aside, there is a couple of things that stands out for me. One of them is the Nintendo Switch Presentation that's coming in less than a week, and the other had me heading to Qu?bec for a few days to experience some wintry activities (even though I utterly despise winter otherwise) and the all-new Water Park done inside a giant building.

 

[Squidward]

Everything seems to be going well so far. Nothing special happened but I feel good.

 

[DJStarstryker]

It's OK so far, but the snow because of winter storm Helena sucks. I hate snow.

 

[SensaiGallade]

- Started this years 1/1 challenge

Err thats all I got right now... I do have mock exams coming up so I should revise really hard for them. Speaking of work maybe I should do that essay...

 

[Chris]

Finally been able to sleep after like two weeks of insomnia. That's definitely a pro.

Done quite a bit of reading so far this year. Read The Art of War by Sun Tzu and the first 500pgs of Romance of the Three Kingdoms (unabridged) by Luo Guanzhong. I'm going to miss having time to read once college starts on Monday. I've three exams this month and two are in my worst subject.

Lol, I feel your pain. 3 exams at the end of the month >_<

 

[Soigne]

It's been decent so far, except I haven't started my next semester yet or really done anything but read. I have high hopes for this year, but I won't be surprised if it ends up badly for me.

 

[Stalfos]

We're only a week in but so far so good. It got extremely cold a couple of days ago but that's to be expected living in Sweden. I've got high hopes for 2017.

 

[piichinu]

ill never understand this new year paranoia culture

 

[Trent the Paladin]

New year same me. It's whatever.

 

[seliph]

Nothing special for me personally but the first viral 2017 thing was "Hollyweed" so I have some faith in it

 

[tybalt_cake]
