Yeah, yeah.
This was in December.
I don't, everything's in the past category of my box.
Yeah.
It doesn't have a date on it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The past box.
So, I, it's really difficult for me to like, summarize the year.

Which is just very like, what I, it's, yeah, everything's, every past that I did is all
the past.
Yeah, yeah.
It's, it's really like, yeah.

True.
It's always been, like, it didn't come naturally, natural to me.
Like, you know how everybody has like this, like, "kotoshi no hofu" or like, "how this
year was" or like, "kotoshi no kotoba."
It was, it's very like, I don't know.
I can't see the, I couldn't really see the, the time marks of like, this is where 2022
ends.
Yeah.
And like, you can wrap it around, you can wrap it, like, you can make a whole, like,
like a summary out of it.
Yeah.
Like, I don't know, that line of like, it's from here to here was never there for me.
Yeah.
It's hard to grasp.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Even to this day.
Yeah.
