Looking forward to 2025

What I look forward to in 2025 is to study more and get better at my reading skills. Although reading is fun, it’s still a struggle for me, especially when what I’m reading isn’t what I want to be reading. I know it’s a part of the learning process, so I push myself to stay strong and focus on the things that are important.
In 2025 I also expect to be starting a crochet business. Although it takes a long time for me to finish an item, I enjoy making things.
Also, I look forward next year to playing volleyball and basketball and being a part of a cheer squad. I want to be more active this coming year. I noticed I play less outside, and I want to stay healthy.
These are my goals because I am a very shy person, so being a part of a something that requires me to be social is important to me. So, in 2025 I am breaking out of my shell to enjoy a happy and healthy new year.
Happy New Year to all.
