I’ve recently returned to my hometown, İzmir, for a few weeks until the new year to spend time with friends and family.
Books
Currently reading through Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut, and will start reading What You Are Looking For Is in the Library by Michiko Aoyama next.
Coding
Over the past few weeks, I’ve migrated my blog from WordPress to Astro, and then from Astro to Django. I am finally happy with my setup, and have decided that static site generation is not for me (or rather, not a very good fit for this particular project.)
Fitness
This month marks the ninth month of me going to the gym regularly. I intend to continue in 2025, with even greater motivation and intensity.
This year, I aim to get faster at running. My current 5K best time is about 45 minutes, which isn’t fast at all, and someone my age should be able to run faster.
