One of my (new) goals every year is to watch n movies I have not seen before, for sufficiently large n. 

• In 2019, n = 50, and I watched 86. 

• In 2020, n = 75, and I watched 107. 

• In 2021, n = 100, and I watched 100.

• In 2022, n = 100, and I watched 100. 

• In 2023, n = 90 and I watched 93.

• In 2024, n = 80, and I watched 60 (job apps are hard). 

• In 2025, n = 80, and I have seen 6 (as of 1/27/25).

On August 25, 2022 I watched my 1000th movie! 

If you're interested in keeping up with what movies these are and some of my thoughts on them, as well as an accurate count of how many I've watched this year, you can find me on letterboxd as @casmatician. 

I've been drawing for most of my life. This means that I often shed digital identities like snakeskin the minute I outgrow or become embarrassed of a certain art style. But for now, if you want to see more of my art, I maintain an instagram over at @alicevisitsdoodleland. 

I try to hold myself to some number of books per year. This is usually very ambitious, but I try anyways. When I'm not struggling to meet those goals, my friends keep me accountable through our short story club.
