Goal Results:
Bouldering: A+ I went bouldering frequently this past winter, and started up again this December. I showed easy improvement over the year, and continued to do some basic grip training during the warmer months
Ice Skating: - The weather never got cold enough in Jan-March, and the ice hasn't frozen thick enough this year. Technically I failed the goal, but it was 100% outside of my control
XC Skiing: B The weather didn't cooperate here, either. I did manage to go a couple of times, but it melted too quickly.
Cooking: A I learned a lot of new recipes over the 1st 1/2 of the year. The second half was largely practicing those recipes. Lots of failures (even when following the directions to a "t"), but some successes as well.
Learn Something New: D I finally got a guitar in the summer, but it took a backseat to other obligations pretty much all year. The few times I did try it things went horribly. I haven't quit on it yet (and picked it back up in the past week or so), but I definitely do as much as I had planned at the start
Card tricks: C+ There was one card trick I really wanted to learn where you someone move a card alongside the back of your fingers, but I could never find it. I did find a couple of other simpler tricks that I got down pretty well, so I won't complain in that regard, but I ultimately haven't even attempted what I really set out to learn.
Sign Language: B The original plan was to learn sign language, but I flipped it to learning Japanese when I decided to take a trip to Japan. Learning the sign language letters went well enough, but I'm hardly at a point of using it day-to-day. Same for Japanese. Things went well enough initially, but I kind of hit a wall. That said, I've been very consistent at spending at least a little bit of time to study up on it.
Vacation: A+ I took a trip to Japan in October and November and it was awesome! Some minor bumps here and there, but ultimately I did/saw nearly everything I planned on. 10/10 would go again.
FAL: F 983 in Fall 23; 5148 in Winter 23; 2215 Spring 24; Top 500 Fall 24 (most likely). Whatever. I'm going to be frank, I lost interest in studying up prior to FAL seasons. Also, MAL cancelled the Summer FAL, so I had one less opportunity to win it (not that I was going to). F for failure, but also F for I don't really give an F
Cats Pet: F My heart is broken. I pet (I believe) about 30 different cats, well short of my goal. I have done a disservice to the feline nation and will have to live with this shame forever
