Hopes for 2017?

To fully transition into a guy. I'm planning on binding, cutting my hair and changing my name. My mom says she'll let me take hormones if I really want to ;u;
 
Getting accepted in to the college I want to go, good grades and being stable. I just hope 2017 will be less stressful than 2016.
 
I hope that the axolotl (the Mexican salamander) doesn't become extinct, I hope that I can finish my art portfolio, and I hope that 2017 is a decent year in general. I also hope that I can finish my town in ACNL by 2017.
 
I really hope I can help my daughter financially when she starts college.

I hope i can sell my house and buy something much smaller and cheaper.

I hope I can change jobs. I've worked so hard all my adult life. I just want something a bit less physical. My body hurts.

I also hope that Trump does a good job as president.
 
I hope I can get better at drawing. I haven't been practicing that much, and I'm getting really rusty.

My new year resolution is to dedicate at least two hours for drawing each day from now on :p
 
My biggest goal is to get back on track with obtaining my degree. It was on standby for quite some time and it's made me feel progressively ****tier over the year, so 2016 was definitely not the best of years for me. It's really odd, I'm not sure if it's the whole "new year, new me" crap that's suddenly decided to channel through me now of all years, but I've had this crazy epiphany today that's allowed me to realise what I want to accomplish in the long term. I think before I was short-sighted because the vision I had for my future was obscured by so many things happening all at once, and they were all problems that could have had very scary consequences for those close to me. I feel like the dust is beginning to settle, and it almost feels like I can see clearly again, as cheesy as it sounds. This year I focus on myself and my goals.

Another big thing I intend to tackle this year, and this really goes hand-in-hand with my degree, is that I want to kick-start my art again. I used to draw very regularly as a hobby in order to improve but it's something I began to lose motivation with over a year ago, and that realisation was really heart-breaking for me at the time. Art was something I indulged in as a child, but when I started my art degree I realised that it can be a very dark place that breeds self-doubt and destruction in unfortunate cases. This year I'm going to bite the bullet and make a DeviantArt page or something, maybe even share some work here, and reignite my passion for freelance art.

Some other smaller goals: I want to get toned for the summer, revisit my sister in Germany again, attend Gamescom a second year, and hopefully cosplay while I'm at it.
 
I hope I can finally get Pokemon Heartgold this year because its so rare and expensive and I really hope I get the boost of happiness I need because the last 4 years have been the peak of depression.

2017 already sucks because my Animal crossing game file corrupted. :(

I hope that I can adjust to my next year in school which is notoriously really hard and soul-crushing. I also hope that my dad is happy and healthy this year.
 
Theres alot I hope for, some of them are easily achievable.
I want to inspire/help/turn atleast like 5 or maybe 10 people to go vegan. I also would like to get that Harry Potter exhibition staff job i sollicitated for,, launch my youtube channel and start doing guitar covers and save up money to buy the necessary equipment for that,, finally learn Portuguese which is my mothers language,, finish reading the game of thrones books etc.
Other than that just stay healthy and hope everything will be alright for family and friends.
If Black Sabbath would continue a bit longer instead of disbanding in february i would be alot happier too and if trump will suddenly reasign or suddenly dies that would be great too.
Also hoping that mainstream pop will eventually die out so rock can come back and maybe gonna finish school so i can become a crematorium worker. Getting my drivers license and visiting my family in Portugal would also be cool. Finally improving my guitar skills is also necessary for me since sometimes you just hit that point where improving gets waaaaay harder. I really want to learn alot of new songs.
 
I hope I can get off my medication and lose all the weight I put on in the past year.

I also hope to finish my knitting and peeler projects I started.
 
I hope to be less lazy than I was last year, be more useful to my family, use less of the Earth's resources, and be myself more. Basically, I hope to be a more better person. As for the world, I hope for less violence, chaos, and deaths.
 
I think it will be better than 2016 was. 2016 actually wasn't that bad for me but I've had better years.
 
I hope I can be a much better student int 2017.

That I meet a nice companion who is everything I want :( [yea right]
 
i dont want to be embarrassed of myself & everything i do this year
i hope to have my counselor thing go well since i just started going to one last month
hopefully i can start my journey
i want to be all caught up with my education, I want to feel smart again.

I want to see my best friend and be supportive of them & their situation and i want them to know i know how they feel and i want to help them so bad
