I know I missed the midnight well wishes train, but uh, basically I made it to 11:31 last night and then I tapped out because I have the sleep patterns of an old man: I go to bed at like 9 and get up at like 6. Huzzah lmao but anyway, happy new year! 2023 is upon us and of course I have to write about it in a Rina manner 

— 2022 

2022 was a ride for me, honestly. So much has happened for me on Asianfanfics and off of it; there were a lot of difficult points but I think I'm coming out of this year stronger for it and ready for my growth to carry me into a better year, and I'm hoping 2023 is a better year for all of you, too. 

2022 saw changes, in the way I had to handle my layouts and of course several username changes (I promise I'll chill). My favorite username from 2022 has to be twilightforay, because of where the username came from and that it sounded gorgeous and it was close to FromTwilight's username (ily you're my dad boogie woogie). 

2022 saw a lot of support for my layout galleries and I cannot thank everyone enough. I've taken a bit of a coding break the last month or so in order to refresh and work on other things, and now that I'm feeling more squirrely I'll be going right back to coding soon. At one point I, half-joking and not thinking Cheshire Atelier would get that many subs, had said that if it hit 420 I'd make a layout inspired by High4—and now we're at 447 and I can't believe it. I won't be changing how I handle my source codes (comment to use will remain), because I've been burned once, but I will try to code more, code a larger variety of layouts, and just code better in general. 

2022 saw Rina becoming a STAYC simp (yeah, I'm gonna admit it now) and crying because Lovelyz breathed the same air again. And, of course, WayV finally had a comeback so she didn't have to go burn down SM Entertainment. 

Last but not least, 2022 saw Rina adding 50 new codes to the coding graveyard, which brings me to the next thing: 

— 2023 AFF RESOLUTIONS

1. First and foremost, I need to clean out the coding graveyard that is my drafted blogs

2. Be more active, code less sporadically (of course, I also plan to be a lot more busy this year so... this is highly unlikely lmao) 

3. Change my DP + about me layout once a month, not once a week(tm) 

4. Do the Moewina collabs

That is all from me, for now :D so I hope everyone has a very happy new year, I'm going to go be a gremlin and do absolutely none of my resolutions except like #3 because new year, new or just updated layout am I right. u3u (and don't perceive me if I change my username)
