We see that we have come to the end of another year. Today (Friday) I am writing an article where I evaluate the whole year with joy as I always do since I have a day off. But first, let's take a look at how 2021 went for me. Click here right now and read it and come on, I am waiting for you...
It was perhaps the most intense, stressful and tiring year of my 23-year life. What happened, what happened... If you are ready, let's get started.
I got married
I got married after going through a 7-month wedding and house preparation process. These days of graying hair and weight loss gave way to comfort and peace. When I look back, the first things that come to my mind are stress, fatigue and debt :)
I moved to a new house
I always lived in my family's house until university. I stayed in a dormitory for 2 years after I moved to university. After the pandemic broke out, we moved home and continued living with our family. Until we got married. After getting married, I moved to Sakarya and moved into a house for the first time. Building a new life in a city I didn't know, in a neighborhood I didn't know... It was like starting everything over again.
After moving to the new house, I created a new work environment for myself. It is ready in the simplest way possible. I plan to enrich it with new equipment and toys over time. For now, this is more than enough for me.
I improved my English
I can say that I improved my English by reading articles in English and watching videos in English. But I can easily say that the development is greater because I use it intensively and actively in my business life. Of course, I will never be perfect, I also know that I need to focus on word memorization processes for this. In fact, a side project is coming up for this, but it is a secret for now :)
I improved my blog
I re-developed my blog with a brand new look and published it. I treat it more like a diary/notebook and continue to add new features and develop it. I treat this place as if it were my backyard and keep trying new technologies and features. I really like staying up to date this way.
In case you haven't noticed, I would like to briefly mention a few of my pages and articles;
While surfing the internet, I save web pages that interest me and share them on the Bookmarks page.
Since I have a special interest in photos, I share the photos I take under the Photos page.
I started developing side projects
I want to create and publish a few applications in my spare time, maybe as an additional income. My top income ideas here are first and foremost advertising revenue, another one is support revenue, and finally, I'm not sure, in-app paid features. I currently have two projects that I'm working on. I will share both projects as mobile platforms and chrome extensions.
I started making coffee with Aeropress
I like drinking coffee while working. Normally, I make Nescafe 3 in 1 and drink it, but I started making coffee with Aeropress for a bit of excitement. Frankly, I don't like drinking strong coffee. I mix it with milk and drink it. Sometimes I drink it as a mocha and sometimes as a caramel latte.
I took new photos
Photography is actually a hobby that is always with me. If I see something beautiful, I take out my phone and take a photo. When I have free time, I edit it with Lightroom and share it. This process really relaxes me, gives me peace and satisfaction.
365 days of bitter and sweet moments. A few days left until the new year with completely different dreams and brand new hopes. Stay healthy!
