Pretty underwhelming new years night itself, although I can’t imagine having too many more of these so it makes the moment more meaningful. It’s interesting to think that as I’m entering into adulthood, it doesn’t make it any easier to mingle with older adults talking about things that are pertinent to them - that seems like it’ll be true for my future children and their generation as well. It’s interesting to use this moment as some sort of marker, since it’s the beginning of the decade. In 10 years I’ll be 30, my sister 26, my parents 55 - my dad commented that it’s our (meaning my sister and I) decade, and that truly seems like it’ll be the case. I really appreciate the relationship I have with my mom - she understands me even she might not directly. Life is good. Takeaway is that life might change but ultimately at its core, things stay the same.
