2021 – 2022 yearly summary
2022-06-15
Tomorrow is my birthday so I want to do a summary of the past year. I moved to Seattle last year during September to study at the UW, and this was the first time that I’ve left my home and my parents for more than 3 months. Unfortunately, Covid took a year of college experience away from me, but after I finally got here, the experience was better than I’d expected.
The Drumheller fountain, by me.

Challanges
The most difficult part of this year was my adaptation to college life. I thought at the beginning of the year that I was fully capable of handling myself on my own, yet the actual experience was not as smooth. Burnouts were common throughout the year, but I believe through practice I can better manage my time and energy.
It was also quite difficult to find energy to explore beyond my academic life, which I believe is caused by both the loss of comfort(of being at home) and my less than optimal sleeping and exercising routine.
What to look forward to next year
- More technical work done(project, interns.)
- More blog posted(target: 10 articles)
- exercise regularly(at least two to three times a week)
- Have regular sleeping sechedule.
So, see you in 2023
