We wrapped up another year, and find words to describe it. Let me see. The Year 2021 was challenging, sad, hectic, fast, and hopeful for the pandemic to end. I lost my two cousins and other acquaintances because of that. It was saddening, but we needed to move on. I do hope the variants would stop evolving already.
As for updating the Deathmarked website, this task was doubled. That was because of the attempt to update regularly my Youtube Channel. I was torn between writing topics on Magic: the Gathering strategy, Ragnarok Online, and Bike Long rides. Most of the time I get to the limit of just showing some decklists or blog about new headgear gacha and that is it. I wanted the readers and followers to learn something new but I just couldn’t.
The same can be said when I vlog on those topics. Getting to learn more and develop my skills in vlogging, was a challenge both in creating ideas and having the gadgets to put them into video. I did try some reference vlogs especially on bike long rides, but the execution in taking those videos won’t rely on just one person. You would prefer to have a fellow biker take videos of you during the rides to give another perspective. I need to learn the details again.
I resorted to going with the trends but the delivery ain’t enough. The niche, I had to look through it.
Lately, I got into some unboxing or booster cracking of Magic: the Gathering products but those showed a lack of interest because of the many vlogs also doing those. I just wanted to have something unique added to it but I still have to find it out. Good thing though that my voice-over during the openings was improving.
That being said, I foresee 2022 as another hopeful year for me, my family, friends, and colleagues that we will be able to achieve whatever our goals are for this year. I had several plans already as of this writing but by the hopes that the universe’s aligning to it and be a success.
Happy New Year 2022 and I hope we face the year with our best. Cheers!
