    I plan on getting a job after a year or so of unemployment, like it for a few months, then hate it, get burnt out, and get fired after 1.5 years. So, you know, the usual.

    Elections for Belgium are next year. We are in track to become the largest left wing party, so it’s an exciting time. It’s federal and communal elections at the same time.

    My current training for my job will end next year so I hope to keep developing so that I’ll be able to fully do my job. It’s going well at the moment and my employer is positive about me.

    I don’t really have personal goals yet. This year wasn’t the best with lots of anxiety for some reason and I hope I can better manage it next year.

    I have some trips and concerts planned already. I will probably spend my summer in Sweden where I will work on the remote cabin my father in law bought there recently. Looking forward to it.

      In the past members of our party happily joined the army to do combat training that would be useful in case of revolution. You might learn something.

      I’ve considered doing something like this too but the Canadian military is not worth it to me. I’m glad the Algerian one is, so good luck and I wish you the best! ❤️

        Won’t be an issue, I look through Algerian military forums and a lot of them are leftists, but only economically, I’m fucked if they find out I’m queer.

    Semester 3 of university, mostly. In my next polisci class I get the same professor from semester 1! I wonder if he’ll recognize me. Other than that maybe continue studying Portuguese.

    I haven’t really thought about it. I know this want your intention but this post got me thinking about making goals for myself to accomplish next year. Thank you!

    Obviously I’m going to be doing stuff, but a little bit of it is fairly personal or identifiable so I don’t know if I want to say it.

    I intend to start some sort of Portuguese language compsci course/help group thing to serve as basis for organising. There’s definitely not enough material out there for people who don’t speak much English.

    And hopefully I’ll also manage to remain my current mental stability for a full year for the first time in half a decade.

    It’ll also be local election year in Brazil too, but everything is in flux right now with the “leftist” government implementing austerity and the main communist party being split. No idea how that’s gonna go, but probably not good.

    Buying a house is something that’s been on my list for a while and something I have been seriously looking at it recently. The mortgage wouldn’t be an issue (in fact, less than my current rent) but the down payment is rough. It doesn’t help that even as a permanent resident, banks are reluctant to issue loans to anyone with a foreign name.

    Somewhat related to that would be adopting a dog once I can have one again. I love my snakes but living in a place that allows dogs again would be great.
