+title: Some Life Updates For 2022
+date: December 21, 2022 23:13
+---
+<p>
+Haven't written much on the blog this year, but not to worry, I'm still alive!
+Here's some updates as to what I've been up to:
+
+<ul>
+  <li>
+    Joined WLOD, a brass orchestra that plays traditional dance music from the
+    Roztocze region of Poland (actually joined it late last year, but this
+    year's season was much more active).
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Also joined WLOD's funeral sub-orchestra, where we play traditional funeral
+    marches from the repertoire of Roztocze orchestras.
+  <li>
+    Joined Bonanza, a small ensemble playing mostly oldies music from the
+    1920s-30s popular in Polish cities (initially as a substitute, now as a full
+    member).
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Spent most of the summer going to various traiditional music events.
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Finally completed my master's in computer science! You can check out my
+    thesis <a href='<%= path_to 'thesis' %>'>here</a> and the LaTeX sources for
+    it <a href='<%= git 'mgr' %>' %>here</a>.
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Don't expect a "Books read in 2022" article, didn't read that much this
+    year, unfortunately, but planning on doing so more in the coming months.
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    The Sunday Corner was empty for quite a stretch of time, but I've been more
+    regular on updating it recently. No promises as to whether this trend will
+    continue, but you might want to start checking it out once in a while again
+    if you enjoyed it but stopped after it was inactive for a while.
+  </li>
+</ul>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+So in summary, a year of traditional music. This has been my main focus in the
+past months, and I want to continue in this direction, widening my repertoire,
+improving my fiddling skills, expanding
+<a href='https://tuturutu.net'>
+  tuturutu.net
+</a>, and maybe even starting my own band eventually.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+And since it's that time of the year, Dear Reader, I'm wishing you a Merry
+Christmas and a happy New Year!
+</p>
