My Personal 2025 Retrospect


Misty Shadow

22 views

Farewell 2025, I'm going to miss you more than 2024. Yes, I'm happy to say that this year was an improvement over last. 

First of all, I made more money this year than I did last year. I still spend a good amount of money commissioning the comic for Pipp the Poltergeist, which has unfortunately not been getting the viewership it used to get, but I had plenty of money left over that I used to commission pictures from other artists and get the stuff I wanted. Heck, I was even able to get a Nintendo Switch 2. I also wrote a story I'm very happy with this year, Misty and Onyx the Oracle.

I am also very happy to say that unlike last year, which was riddled with drama with family and friends, I had little drama to deal with this year. One big highlight of this year was that I was able to rekindle a friendship with someone from my past I thought betrayed me and realized that they were actually a very good person who has matured a lot. I have more e-friends right now than I've ever had before. Although I didn't do too much art this year, something I wanted to do for my comeback year, I at least did that story and was finally able to do something I always wanted to do with my games, getting twelve done in a year, one for each month.

Honestly, the biggest negative of this year was my eczema being absolutely terrible during the summer, but I've been adapting more and more lately to dealing with it under severe weather conditions. Someone at work has even been nice enough to let me use something to really help deal with it. I don't have that much to say about this year with it not being one of the most remarkable years of my life, but I definitely had much more fun with it than 2024.

You leveled up your bits, still stayed loyal to commissioning Pipp the Poltergeist even when the crowd thinned out, and managed to treat yourself to a Switch 2. very Twilight Sparkle “hard work pays off” energy there. :)Writing Misty and Onyx the Oracle feels like earning a well-deserved cutie mark moment too, especially since it’s something you’re genuinely happy with.


I’m also glad this year wasn’t riddled with drama. Rekindling that friendship from your past sounds straight out of a Season 5 lesson ans realizing someone matured and wasn’t the villain you thought is peak Starlight Glimmer growth. Having more e-friends than ever feels like you’ve built your own Ponyville, even if the art comeback wasn’t as big as planned. Twelve games in a year, one for each month, is very Rainbow Dash “I actually followed through” impressive.


Sorry to hear about the eczema being so rough during the summer, though. :( That sucks. Adapting to severe weather and getting help at work shows real Applejack grit. 

 

Happy new year to you and may 2026 be a good year! :)
