It's cool how much everyone has grown over the past few years, even with COVID (btw I am so on-board with calling it "the panini") essentially stopping things for 2 years.

I think I was last active on Mene in 2018 or 2019?
Since then, I have:

1. Moved from Southern California to the Bay Area
2. Started working in tech full-time
3. Played a lot of FFXIV. Finished 3 Ultimate raids in that time
4. Completed my bachelor's degrees in Computer Science (It only took 6-8 years lmao)
5. Met and started dating my partner in 2021 - it has its complications, but it's been very fulfilling
6. Visited another country for the first time since I was 14! (Mexico)
7. Went on a solo-vacation for the first time
