looking back at 2025

this year was definately been something. so, looking back at it, i decided to make a fun little list of events in my life during this year. honestly, i forgot the dates for most, so it's in random order.

1. scammer; back when i still had tiktok, someone attempted to scam me pretending to be imai from bucktick. i used a translator to talk to him which was fun. we moved on to telegram and the scammer didn't care enough to make the telegram at least a bit believable. i have a screenshot but i cant upload it for some reason, but ive kept their 1st text and mine.

こんにちは、今日はどうですか？ご家族はどうですか？あなたとチャットしているからといって、驚いたり特別だと感じたりしないでください。私もあなたと同じ人間です。有名人だからといって特別なことではありません。

こんにちは、今日はどうですか？私は元気です。家族も元気です。あなたはどうですか？私は日本語があまり分からないので翻訳機を使っています。私の話が筋が通っているといいのですが。

no idea why it looks like that but eh. first is theirs, 2nd is mine.

2. meeting a new friend; so once back when i was still searching for online friends, i met this guy on reddit. at first he bored me a lot. i ghosted him. then we moved to insta, but i kept talking to him because i was bored. i was mean to him but for some reason he stayed. i decided to be nicer and he actually turned out to be a great friend. i think in like february or march of 2026 we will be talking for a year.

3. first true taste of independence; i live in the countryside and anywhere where you can have fun, you gotta be driven there. i think like 2 buses max pass through my village so i cant go far. and my parents cant constantly drive me. back in march, i slept in a hotel for the first time due to a 2 day long field trip. that hotel was by a strip club, and like a kilometer away from one of the most famous strip clubs in greece. i ate a bao bun for the first time then and it gave me food poisoning. it tasted weird but i didnt know how one was supposed to taste like. will try again. https://blog.spacehey.com/entry?id=1474516

4. being complimented for being goth; second multi day field trip of that march. since i live in a fucking village with 80 people still breathing, it was so strange to not only see alternative people out in the street, but also to be complimented. every day, at least once, someone did the opposite of mocking me.

5. deleting tiktok; i thought that tiktok made me unhappy so i deleted it. it was a first step but insta reels got me. now i have a limit on that. it was really freeing though.

6. writing a book in 34 days; ill be completely honest. the book is not perfect but i love it. i still dont know how i managed it. its over 76k words and was 3 drafts. all done in 34 days. i mean i dont recommend it unless you want to rock a compression glove like me. i definately have tendon problems. also i lost weight back then because i would not eat so i could write. no idea what possessed me. the basic plot of the book is that some girl who sees ghosts is kidnapped to figure out what happened with an imaginary nuclear accident. im writing that part two currently, and by writing i mean that ive restarted it like 10 times after writing max 15 pages. but now, im sure ill finish it.

7. tooth troubles; my teeth were very sensitive, so i was like yea you know what, its the invisalign or maybe im getting wisdom teeth early. the pain was so bad that if water wasn't in my mouth, i couldn't think of anything else. and it burned like hell. so one day it hurt so much, even had a heartbeat, and i had an emergency root canal. same night i opened the tooth via sewing needle because of the pain. let it vibe there open, smelled so damn bad. then i got it closed again, this time i took a ton of painkillers, so many that stomach ulcers were a risk. so i got an xray and turns out i had some fluid in there, and it was probably bothering some nerve. i took augmentin for a long time, it went away. then it came back, i took more augmentin. then due to reasons explained later i had to take another pill that made me vomit 4 times in 2 hours. luckily, after much cortisone and the pill that made me vomit actually working, the tooth healed 3 months later. also 2 of my wisdom teeth dont exist

8. allergy to ibuprofen or augmentin (not been tested yet); so one day my tooth hurts like hell, i take ibuprofen, then take augmentin as prescribed. at school, my head was burning, itching, numb when i scratched it and burning even more, my tooth had the same pulse as my wrist, i was tachycardic. after i was done with school, i had to go get scanned for more invisalign but it was so painful to close my mouth that i screamed at the doctor. obviously i got to the hospital. my eyes were burning and my throat started closing. they gave me cortisone and some other stuff. i was chilling with some old man with dementia who was asked what year it was and he said november, and it was like late october when both of us were chilling there. anyways the next day during pe i had an allergic reaction again cuz i took ibuprofen. i got to see an allergy doctor and this month or in january ill be tested to see if im actually allergic to augmentin or ibuprofen.

9. tooth extraction; luckily not the one that showed my allergy. a filling came off, the tooth broke front to back. i had had a root canal on that one so there wasn't much tooth. i removed half of it via string and the other was by a dentist. i had 4 numbing shots done on me and i looked like i had a stroke. the wound healed via blue raspberry toxic waste candy accidentally going there. when i get a place of my own, im getting some for teeth wounds.

10. no more invisalign?; for some reason my orthodontist hasn't called my mom yet so i havent worn retainers since september. my teeth are moving, my gums are sore and my bottom teeth are now a zigzag.

11. winning a nationwide writing competition; i argued so much for my teacher to let me enter that story in the competition. i won, fuck her.

12. teacher gossip; during philosophy class we got to the question of are we truly free and the teacher decided that we weren't because our feelings and instincts and memories control us. the examples she found were that sometimes murder happens in the heat of the moment, and that she cheated on her husband. also told us that even if you don't want to cheat on your partner, you will in the middle of passion.

13. 2nd time of deepfakes made of me; sucks but such is life. imagine being some pervert thinking that you will see some girl's titties and instead you see the corpse of a man who has received a lethal dose of radiation and died 8 months later. still have that picture.

14. start of weight loss; after multiple different pills, 5 months worth of cortisone in my body and an eating disorder, i started losing weight 2 months ago. thus far, i've lost 7.5 kilograms and planning on losing 12.5 more.

so that has been my year. hope the next one doesn't include so many doctor visits. and other than losing more weight and becoming happier, i don't really have other hopes for 2026. 2026 for me is a year just meant to pass, to prepare for university. so i guess i hope that it passes fast, and that i get into nuclear engineering. 

have a happy 2026!!!!!1
