I've been thinking of setting some goals for the month. I lost my primary hobby (temporarily 🤞), so I've just been reading and spending ungodly amounts of time on Lemmy & Reddit. I want to spend my time in a more healthy and fulfilling way...

What are some goals you all are working towards? What are your hobbies that make you feel fulfilled? What's something that makes you look forward to the (near) future?

I wanted to study computer science, but I needed to do a calculus-like course in order to qualify. Unfortunately, I didn't have this course during high school, so now I'm doing something called "Adult education", which allows me to catch up with this missed course. If everything goes well (and it seems like it!), I'll finish the course in May 2024 and enroll in September, after summer break!

Besides that, I'm also a bit bored lol. I was working on this programming project of mine, but I've almost finished it. Unit tests are the only things left and I don't like writing those, so I'm procrastinating.

Something that (sort of) makes me fulfilled, is going to the gym. I'll be honest, I don't really like the workout itself, but after a couple of months, I have seen actual muscle growth in my shoulders, back, and (upper) arms and it feels like I'm actually making progress. This has only encouraged me and now I'm lifting 18kg for the dumbbell press :D

I love going to the gym too! By dumbbell press, you mean overhead press? I love OHP too. I started going to the gym purely to get stronger but I started seeing aesthetic results way sooner haha, I have actual visible triceps and I think that's awesome
