I Tracked Everything I Did for Over a Year in 30 Minute Intervals

I manually filled out this table with what I spend my time with between 2024. Nov. 10. and 2025. Dec. 31.

I saw others do it on here on Reddit and wanted to give it a go myself. One of the reasons I did it was because this was my last year of being a university student, from this year onward I will join the working adult population. Until now, my lifestyle could be described as 'terminally online', I'm the typical cellar dwelling discord moderator type. I wanted to erect this spreadsheet as a memorial and perhaps a period-document to this lifestyle that I now have to part ways with. I am only posting it now, a month after the project has ended, because I was busy in January with my final exam.

The diagrams on the third panel only include data from days in 2025.

I gladly answer any question in the comments but I'm adding a FAQ here based on a previous post:

• How much time did it take to make this? – It took around 3-4 hours to set up the spreadsheet with the functions and colours and stuff, I made minor edits later, which took probably an additional 2-3 hours. On a daily basis, entering the actual data took less than 2 minutes in total. To get it in tip-top shape for posting in the end, it took another 8 hours. Working on this project is classified under category Ga (personal projects).
• How often did I enter data? – When I was near my computer, I sometimes entered them every 30 minutes, but more often in small bunches. When I wasn't near my computer, which for me is quite rare, I just remembered everything I did until I could enter it again.
• Was this difficult to do? – Not really, the difficult part is constantly being aware of the time and what I am doing and remembering it for hours. The habit itself is easy to pick up but comes with a non-zero constant mental weight. Near the end of it, I grew quite tired of it and wished I could 'take a day off' here and there, so I'm glad it's finally over. I might do it again another year in the future.
• Am I autistic, neurodivergent, or otherwise mentally ill? – Maybe, possibly, not diagnosed though. I am actually doing fine now.
• Where do I live? – A village in rural Hungary.
• What did I learn from this, would I do something differently? – I expected the result to be bleaker, I'm actually not doing that bad. I will make changes going forward obviously, and this is largely because I have no choice to do otherwise. I will have a job now (hopefully) and it will govern most of my routine, I will have to do with as much free time as I have left, which I hope to spend with the things that bring me the most joy.
• Is a template for this available for people who want to try doing this too? – Yes, I've made a blank template that I'll send to anyone who asks for it in private messages.
