Good evening, chat! How y’all doing? I hope everyone’s had—or is having—a good day.

As for me, it was just an okay day. Nothing special happened, but nothing crazy either. I wanted to go for a walk outside this morning, but the gloomy weather had other plans, so I ended up pacing around my garage again. I was already running late for work, so I couldn’t hit my usual morning quota of 3,000 steps. Still, I managed to walk for 20 minutes, which is better than nothing.

On another note, I saw my mom cry today. I won’t go into details, but let’s just say it had something to do with me. Seeing her like that made me rethink a lot of things—especially what I’ve been doing these past few months and how useless I’ve felt.

You see, the reason I want to succeed so badly in life is because I want my parents to have the retirement they deserve. More than that, I want them to have a comfortable, fulfilling life once they retire. But looking at where I’m at right now, I don’t think I’ll be able to give them that anytime soon. Seeing my mom cry was a wake-up call. It made me realize how little time I actually have—how everything around me keeps moving forward while I feel stuck in the same place I was a year ago. Not much has changed, really. I want to believe it has, but if I’m being honest with myself… it hasn’t.

Chat, I cannot emphasize enough how god-awful my internet is today. It’s been horri-fricking-ble. I legit couldn’t get anything done. Hell, even my games felt griefed by my ISP. It literally took three minutes just to load the login page of my CMS. Like, what kind of third-world sh— is going on?

I’ve restarted my router three times, man. Three fricking times. And nothing. I’m paying a hefty amount every month for this below-average connection. Even the speed test website is struggling—it’s literally just showing the markups with no styling, lmfao.

Anyway, like I said, I got absolutely nothing meaningful done today. Goes to show how much I rely on having a decent connection. Almost everything I do from the moment I wake up requires the internet. If I’m not outside walking or running, or reading in my room, I’m online doing something. I don’t watch TV. Hell, I don’t even own a TV. I don’t listen to the radio either—that’s what YouTube is for nowadays.

And most importantly? My income sources are all online.

Please, for the love of god—Internet gods, help your boy.

Good evening, y'all! I hope y'all are doing well. We're officially one week away from March, and honestly, I don't think I'm ready, chat. My god. February flew by like a fricking jet. I can't even remember half the things that happened this month. I swear to god, mang, there's no way February is about to be over. I still remember being at 148 pounds at the end of January like it was last week. No kidding.

What the hell happened? They say time flies when you're having fun, but I don’t remember having that much fun this month. If anything, it was the opposite. The past two weeks have been rough. I was literally so down just a few days ago, lmao. I guess time flies when you're stressing out too.

Anyway, enough of that. I wanna talk a little about my day. It wasn’t particularly special, but I’d say it went fine. Was I productive? Not really. In fact, I probably spent more time playing video games than anything else. Hey, mang, I deserve it. This week was hellish for me.

I'm hoping for a better week next week, but honestly? I doubt it. It'll probably be just as bad with everything that’s coming up. I hate this, chat. I wanna be positive so badly, but I just can't. The anxiousness and fear are just way too much.

I know, I know. I'm sorry. Yesterday was a complete disaster, fam. Work was so stressful that I got a headache again—something I haven't had in forever. Something just felt off. I couldn't even work out. Barely hit 3,000 steps, and I was exhausted the entire night. I was literally in bed by 11 PM, and mind you, I’m super consistent with my sleep—I never go to bed before midnight. But yesterday? I just couldn't do anything. Literally. I think I spent the whole night just sitting on my couch, completely unproductive.

I mean, I kinda saw it coming. I knew the end of February was gonna be stressful as hell—I think I even mentioned it a few entries ago. And it’s not over yet. I know the first few weeks of March are gonna be rough too.

I’m not gonna lie, chat. I’m scared. I can’t get into details for privacy reasons, but I’m about to go through one of the biggest changes of my life. And it’s not just gonna affect me—it’s gonna impact the people closest to me too. I know I’ll come out of it fine, but I’m worried it’s gonna set me back a couple of weeks. Maybe even force me to delay the launch of my personal project, which I really don’t want to do.

I don’t know, chat. I really don’t.

Hey y’all! I hope you’re having (or had) a wonderful day—I certainly did. Well, okay, nothing special happened, but for some reason, the vibe today was just positive, so I’m counting it as one of those days, you know?

Anyway, this morning, the sun wasn’t out, so I just ended up walking around my garage. The good thing is, it finally came out in the afternoon, which was nice. Work was okay—nothing too crazy. It felt a little challenging, but in a fun way—the kind of problem-solving that actually keeps you engaged. I did feel a little stressed, but it was that good kind of stress, eustress, which I always welcome.

After work, I was actually pretty productive. I didn’t play a single game today—still recovering from yesterday’s losses. Might take a couple more days to fully shake it off. But maybe it was a blessing in disguise because it forced me to focus on my project instead.

And guess what, chat? I actually made serious progress today! The website is now about 90% done, so I’m really close. I can’t even tell y’all how happy I am. I’m so proud of what I built. I don’t care that it took me almost a month—it was totally worth it. Not only did I learn a ton, but it also looks really good. Obviously, I can’t show it here (wouldn’t want to reveal too much), but trust me—it looks awesome.

Hey y'all! How's everyone doing?

I don't know about y'all, but today felt pretty mediocre for me. I mean, nothing too special happened. I woke up around 8 o'clock but didn’t actually get up until like 8:50. Then, I went straight to my morning walk. Yes, it was sunny this morning. Thank you, weather gods. Y'all are the real MVPs today.

It was a great walk too—I think I hit around 4,500 steps, which was awesome. After that, I got back home and jumped straight into work. Not gonna lie, work was a little tough today. Remember that new project I mentioned a few entries back? Yeah, I’m still grinding away at it during my 9-to-5. My focus has been the same for the past two or three weeks now, and I’m down to the last stretch. The thing is, I kinda saved the challenging parts for last. So yeah, I’m in the trenches right now.

But honestly, I like it. I’d rather be challenged like this than do nonsense work for weeks. Like, no cap, I’d take this every single day over just goofing around all week because there’s no "real" work.

Anyway, the rest of the day was pretty normal. I went for another walk after work, took a shower, and then worked on my personal project. I made some progress, but I don’t feel like I did enough. But hey, there’s always tomorrow. Hopefully, I can get more done then.

Goooooood morning, chat! How y'all doing? Hope everyone’s having a good day—or had a good one, depending on your time zone.

As for me, my day’s just getting started. Just got back from my morning walk. I made the mistake of walking inside my garage, thinking the sun wouldn’t come out—only for it to show itself minutes after I started. Classic. I’m planning to go for another walk this afternoon, though, so hopefully, the sun sticks around.

Anyway, today’s just a regular workday for me. Not too stoked about my 9-5, but I am looking forward to making some progress on my personal project. Speaking of which—remember when I said I’d launch it by mid-February? Yeah... didn’t hit that deadline. But honestly, that might’ve been a blessing in disguise, ‘cause the market isn’t looking too hot right now. If I had launched, I’m almost certain it would’ve just gotten buried under some bearish news. Timing is everything. No one can predict the market perfectly, but you can tell when fear is winning over greed—and right now, fear’s in the lead. Not sure how long this’ll last, but I’m hoping March brings some positive news.

That’s it for today’s entry. Gotta go do some adulting now. Catch y’all tomorrow!

Hey y'all!

Gonna keep it short today 'cause I don’t really feel like writing. Had a pretty mediocre day—woke up to a gloomy sky, which instantly killed my motivation for a morning walk. So, I just stayed home. And no, I did not do laps around my garage.

It’s Sunday, my usual rest day. I do like to run in the morning sometimes, but, like I said, the sun wasn’t out, so I skipped that too.

Spent most of the day working on my personal project, played some video games, and caught the NBA All-Star game. Nothing too special.

That’s about it for this entry. Catch y’all tomorrow!

Hey chat! Happy weekend! Hope y’all are having a great end to your week.

As for me, it’s basically a work day. Specifically, I’ll be spending the weekend working on my personal project. The website is coming along really nicely, and I’m proud of what I’ve built so far. It’s colorful, but not so colorful that it feels unprofessional—which is exactly the vibe I’m going for. I’m all about having fun, but nothing too wild, if that makes sense. I like things to be lighthearted but still high quality.

I think I’ve spent about three weeks designing and building this thing, which is kinda crazy. But obviously, I didn’t do it all alone. Some of the illustrations I’m using were created by artists on Fiverr. The idea was mine, of course, but I don’t use Adobe software, so I had to delegate. Plus, I’m basically a one-man team, which makes doing everything pretty much impossible. So, shoutout to those artists and to Fiverr for making it easy to connect with talented people.

So, when’s the launch date? Still up in the air, but I’m aiming for no later than mid-March. I expect to wrap things up by the second week of March, so the launch will likely happen shortly after that. I’m super excited—but also a little anxious—because, like with anything in life, things can go south. My project might not take off at all. I have no idea how it’ll go, but one thing’s for sure: I’m gonna do my best to make sure the launch goes smoothly.

Hey y'all. How's everyone doing? Hope y'all are well.

I don't even know how to describe today—it just felt long. No cap, I can’t even remember what happened this morning. Like, I know I didn’t go outside, but I think I walked around my garage? No idea if it was because of the rain or if I just stayed in bed too long.

Anyway, my eyes are tired. And that’s saying something, considering they’re used to being glued to a screen for 16+ hours a day. But today felt different—like I used them way more than usual. Not sure if that’s a sign I’m getting old (hopefully not) or if it was the three or four hours I spent gaming. Hopefully the latter.

I don’t feel tired, but my eyes do. Not the “exhausted” kind of tired—more like the “I need a break from screens before my eyeballs fall out” kind of tired. God, I can't wait to escape this life, mang. If making money offline was as easy as making it online, I wouldn’t be doing all this BS. Not even kidding.

Staring at a screen all day isn’t just bad for your eyes—it’s terrible for your body too. No cap, I’ve been trying to fix my back forever. Posture correctors, app reminders, you name it. Tried them all. But sitting for hours on end makes all those fixes feel useless. I’m not tackling the root of the problem, which is me spending too much time sitting.

Wish me luck, chat. Hopefully, we all make it soon.

Good evening, chat! Today was basically a rerun of Wednesday—cold, rainy, and miserable. And because of that, I couldn’t go for my walk… again.

Y’all know Wednesday is my short-distance run day. And the thing about me? If I miss it, I usually make up for it the next day. But guess what? I couldn’t do it today either. It was wet and windy outside—what was I supposed to do? I don’t have a treadmill. If I did, this wouldn’t even be a problem.

Now that I think about it, my fitness literally depends on the weather, which is kinda bad. I need my own gym, fam. Just kidding. No, but seriously, I would thrive if I had a home gym. The only reason I don’t go to a regular gym is the hassle of driving just to work out. If I had one at home? Man, I’d be jacked by now. One day, though. Fingers crossed.

Speaking of fingers… okay, I don’t know where I was going with that. Let’s not talk about my fingers.

Anyway, let’s talk crypto. Why do I keep seeing these frickin’ crypto streamers all over my X timeline? Not trying to be negative, but let’s be real—the space does not need these guys. Most of them are just grifters and scammers, and it’s not like we don’t have enough of those already. Get them out!

Good evening, chat! How's everyone doing? Oh, that's great to hear! I'm doing pretty good, thanks for asking. Had a normal day. Woke up, and it was really cold—made getting out of bed way harder than it should've been. So, I ended up pushing my morning walk back a bit. Still stuck with it, though. That meant I started work a little late, but it's all good since our management doesn’t really care as long as we deliver something by the end of the day.

Speaking of my 9-5, I thought today went well… okay, it was so-so. Like I mentioned yesterday, we’re working on a mid-size project, so that’s been my main focus for the past week. Honestly, that’s probably why I haven’t been complaining about work as much—because for once, I’m actually having fun. This kind of thing happens maybe twice, three times a year max. Not even joking. Our company moves slow as hell. I genuinely don’t know how we’re still alive. Ironically, some of my coworkers still think we’re in our startup phase. Personally, I strongly disagree. We’re way past that, which is exactly why everything feels so slow now.

Anyway, enough about work—I wanna talk about my project. I came up with a brilliant idea today, and honestly, it’s got me even more excited about this whole thing. I really think it has a solid shot at success. No clue what’s gonna happen in the next few months, but if the market goes parabolic and money starts flowing into smaller projects, I genuinely believe mine could take off.

Good evening, chat! Today was cold in my area. Well, when I woke up, it was fine—just the usual morning chill, nothing crazy. I went for a walk, felt good, and the weather was cooperative. But for some reason, around 3 o’clock in the afternoon, everything suddenly shifted. Strong winds came out of nowhere, the skies darkened, and it almost felt like a typhoon was rolling in. Needless to say, I didn’t get my post-work walk in.

Honestly, though, now that I think about it, my body probably needed the break—especially my legs. I’ve been walking and running every single day since the year started, so maybe that sudden change in weather was a blessing in disguise.

Anyway, enough weather talk. Work was pretty chill today. I got a couple of tasks done, and there weren’t too many meetings, which I really appreciated. Had to leave a little early for a doctor’s appointment, but nothing major.

When I got back home, I jumped straight into working on my project. Yes, it’s still in progress. But I’m feeling good about it—very positive, actually. If all goes well, I should be able to launch by mid-March at the latest. No more excuses. The foundation is solid, and honestly, this is the result of nearly seven months of hard work. I truly believe it has the potential to go far.

Wish me luck, chat!

Good evening, y’all. Today was a pretty chill day, chat. I woke up around 8 o’clock but didn’t actually get out of bed until 9. Not gonna lie, these past few days, I’ve been struggling to get up. I don’t know what it is, but something about checking my phone first thing in the morning just makes me not want to move. It’s like my phone has this insane gravitational pull. And the cold weather? Yeah, that definitely doesn’t help. The warmth of my blanket feels way too good, making it even harder to get up.

Anyway, I did go for a walk this morning—got in about 4,500 steps, which is solid. Work was okay. I made some progress on the project we’re building, and there’s still more left for me to do, which honestly has me excited for the next few days. The drought is finally over. We’re back to building and shipping again, and that’s the main reason you haven’t heard me complain about work lately.

Don’t get me wrong, my stance on this whole 9-5 grind hasn’t changed. I still hate it and would love to escape as soon as possible. But whenever there’s a new feature in the works, it actually makes going to work feel worthwhile. It’s kinda motivating. If we had a new feature to build every single week, I swear you’d never hear me complain about my job again. That would be chef’s kiss perfect.

Hi y’all! How’s everyone’s Sunday? I hope you had a great one—because I sure did.

I slept in a little today since it’s the weekend and I didn’t set an alarm. Ended up waking up around 9 AM, which is later than usual. Not sure if I struggled to fall asleep last night, but I must have, because there’s no way I would’ve slept that long if I had dozed off as soon as I went to bed. Pretty sure I went to bed around midnight. Anyway, no point dwelling on it—I know I’ll be sleeping early tonight since I have work tomorrow.

So yeah, like I said, I had a pretty good day. Wanna know why? Because I hit a milestone on my project! I just finished the layout design for the website, and honestly? It looks amazing. I’m really proud of what I was able to accomplish, especially since I’m not a professional designer. To be fair, I have taken some design courses—both in-person and online—so I guess that helped. I enjoy designing. I wouldn’t say I’m great at it, but I have fun with it.

Anyway, back to my day—I was feeling so motivated that I ended up walking a whopping 9,000 steps! And not just from walking. Since it’s Sunday, I went for a run. It wasn’t my usual long Sunday run, though, because for some reason, my legs are still sore from Friday’s leg day (brutal, lol). Still, I managed to run about 1.5 miles, which I think is reasonable given my current state.

Overall, I’m really happy with how today turned out. Looking forward to more Sundays like this!

Good evening, y'all! I hope y'all had a wonderful Saturday. If you're curious, mine was pretty chill. I woke up around 8 o'clock but didn't get up immediately since I wanted to catch up on sleep. I did fall back asleep, but only for a very short time—about 30 minutes, which is pretty unusual for me. Normally, whenever I go back to sleep, I end up oversleeping. Maybe I wasn’t that tired after all.

Anyway, I felt energetic throughout the day. I got some sun during my morning walk, which was really nice. Thank you, weather gods. It had been raining for like an entire week in my area, so this was definitely a blessing.

When I got back home, I jumped straight into working on my project and made some really good progress. The website is almost done! For context, I’ve been designing and coding it for almost a month now. Still missing a couple of illustrations, but I’m confident they’ll be ready by launch.

I also played some video games. Not gonna lie, there were a few rage moments, but nothing too crazy—just the usual one or two trash-talks.

Overall, it was a very balanced day. I didn’t feel overwhelmed with work, but I also didn’t slack off. I imagine tomorrow will be the same since I don’t have anything on my calendar.

Catch y'all tomorrow!

Good evening, y'all. It's your boy, back at it again with another byte entry. A few things happened today that made me realize some important stuff, and I wanna talk about it in today's entry.

So I woke up around 8 o’clock, like usual. First thing I did? Checked my phone. Saw a text from an older sibling asking for money. Now, the thing with my family is, when they “borrow” money, they usually never return it. But being the loving family member I am, I still lend them money anyway. Not gonna lie, though—seeing that text first thing in the morning pissed me off. I ended up sending a somewhat disrespectful reply, and just like that, my mood was ruined for the day.

Then came the afternoon. Another text, this time from my mom, asking me to print something for her. I didn’t reply right away, so she called me. When I answered, she spoke in that sweet, motherly way—y’all know how moms are. She even asked if I was okay since I hadn’t responded. But by then, I was already in a bad headspace. The morning situation still had me feeling some type of way, plus I was stressed from work. So what did I do? I lashed out at her too.

And man, I regretted it immediately. But the damage was already done. So I stepped outside to cool off, did some introspection, and realized something: my reactions had nothing to do with them. The anger, the frustration—it was all coming from within. And when I really sat with it, I saw the root of it all. It wasn’t about the money or the phone call. It was the stress, the pressure, the feeling of being stuck in the same place despite working my ass off for months.

It made me realize how toxic my current state of mind is. And yeah, for a moment, I hated myself even more for not being where I want to be in life. But more than anything, it lit a fire under me. I have to escape this shitty rat race before it eats me alive and ruins the relationships I actually care about.

Hey y'all! How was everyone’s day? Surprisingly, mine went pretty well, despite the gloomy weather. I didn’t get to walk this morning—not even in my garage—because it was way too cold. But the temperature warmed up a bit in the afternoon, so I managed to squeeze in 3,000 steps after work. Felt good to move around!

I also had a nice energy boost throughout the day, which was great because I made some solid progress on my personal project. Honestly, if I didn’t have a 9-5, I’m pretty sure my project would be out by now. The amount of stress I get from my job—especially toward the end of last year—has been slowing down everything outside of work. It just makes me want to escape it even more.

Now that I think about it, this is probably why so many people feel trapped in their 9-5s. They’re either too drained to do anything productive afterward, or they’re stuck in the endless loop of Netflix and social media scrolling. I never want to be that kind of person. I mean, I kinda used to be, especially when I first started working. But the longer I stay in this routine, the more I realize how shitty this kind of life is. I can’t even call it “living.”

It makes me wonder—how are most people okay with doing this for their entire lives?

Good evening, y'all.

I had a pretty mediocre day today. I mean, work was fine. Remember those phone calls I told you about yesterday? I made them today, and I think they went well. The sun was out all day, so I got in a good walk—4,500 steps in the morning—and ran two miles in the afternoon. Work was okay too. Had about three different meetings, but they were short, so I still got some actual work done. It wasn’t busy either, which gave me some time to do a few exercises.

So why was it still a mediocre day?

I just don’t feel like I accomplished much. For some reason, I felt really tired after work. Tried to push myself to make progress on my project, but I barely did the minimum. I don’t know what’s up with me. These past few days, I’ve been at my lowest—exhausted, lost, broke, unhappy. Can’t control sudden urges. It’s like I’m not in control of my life anymore. Problems just keep piling up, and I feel like I’m struggling to fight back.

No cap, I just want to sleep all day so time would move faster.

I feel defeated, y'all. And the worst part? I know how to get out of this rut. I’m trying, I really am. But it doesn’t feel like enough.

It’s so damn depressing.

I almost skipped bytes today. Life's been rough these past few days, and honestly, I don't see it getting any better for at least another month. I’m exhausted, not gonna lie. It’s just been bad news after bad news—like, it literally doesn’t seem to end.

On top of that, a bunch of new problems popped up, and now I have to spend my time making endless phone calls and sending out emails. If you haven’t been in this situation before, consider yourself lucky because it is hell. Imagine waiting days just to get an email response—or worse, getting ignored completely.

Work’s not looking great either. I mean, sure, the past few days have been stress-free, but that’s exactly the problem. There’s barely any work on my plate, yet I still have to show up, which means I’m stuck wasting 8-9 hours every day on some stupid shit. (Pardon my cussing.)

And my personal project? Yeah, that’s a mess too. There’s still a million things left to do, and not nearly enough time to do them. So much is happening all at once, and we’re only two months into the year.

I’m legit feeling overwhelmed and burnt out at the same time.

I don’t know, chat. I just don’t know.

Good evening, y’all! I hope y’all had an amazing day, ‘cause I sure didn’t. I mean, my day was fine, but nothing special happened. I woke up around eight o’clock, which is my usual wake-up time. I couldn’t go for a walk outside since it was raining a bit, so I just ended up pacing around my garage again—which, as you probably already know, isn’t my favorite thing.

The good news is I still managed to get in 2,500 steps doing that. After walking, I went straight back inside and got to work. I logged in today expecting some exciting tasks in my queue. But guess what? When I checked my work board, it was empty. Again. So, once more, I had to waste time searching for something to do.

Now, this might sound nice to some of y’all, but for me, it’s frustrating as hell. Yeah, I’m getting paid, so technically, I shouldn’t complain, but honestly? At this point, it feels like I’m just wasting my time. I’m not learning anything new. I’m not being challenged. I don’t even think our company is making any real progress.

And it’s been like this for almost a year. I’m not even exaggerating. If finding a new job was easy, I would’ve done it a long time ago. That’s literally the only thing stopping me from sending that magical resignation letter to HR.

I hate this crap, man. I’m more than this.

Good evening, y’all! Yes, I know—I missed yesterday’s entry. My bad. I was virtually outside the entire day and just didn’t have time to sit down and write.

Chat, I ain't gonna lie—my diet has been at its lowest these past three days. All that hard work in January? Wiped out in three days. All that sacrifice avoiding unhealthy food? Gone after three days of eating out. I’ve seen tweets saying Western food is basically poison, while people in Eastern countries eat a lot but don’t gain weight. And honestly? I'm starting to believe it.

Because there is no way I gained four pounds in just three fricking days, chat. Ain’t no way. There’s gotta be some compound in the food where I live that just makes people gain weight at hyperspeed. Ain’t no way, mang.

I can’t even explain how disappointed I am, chat. I don’t know how these bodybuilders and models do it. I have mad respect for them, 'cause goddamn—this whole healthy lifestyle thing feels like an extreme sport.

On another note, the crypto market is crashing, chat, and it’s adding even more sourness to my already sour weekend. I'm so sad, y’all. My portfolio didn’t even go up in 2024, and now? It’s dipping.

Good evening, y'all! I hope everyone had a great day because I sure did.

Alright, first things first—I didn't get any walking or exercise in today. Not because I was lazy, but because I was basically out and about the entire day. I also woke up later than usual since I had something important to finish last night and had to stay up late for it. So when I finally woke up this morning, it was already go time, and there was no chance to squeeze in a walk.

The good news? I did get some walking in while I was out, so I wasn’t completely inactive. The bad news? I ate a lot. And let’s be real, I don’t think I walked enough to balance out the ridiculous amount of food I consumed. Not to mention the weight I’ll probably gain from it. I was hoping to make up for it with some long walks this weekend, but I just checked the weather, and yeah… not looking good.

Anyway, I’ll try my best not to go too crazy with the fatty foods this weekend. It’s gonna be tough for reasons I won’t get into here, but I’ll do my best.

On another note, the crypto market has been acting real funky these past few days, chat. Not gonna lie, it’s getting kinda frustrating.

Good evening, y’all! How’s everyone doing? I’m doing great too, thanks for asking!

I’m currently watching Moana 2 on my second screen. Honestly, I have no idea what it’s about—I haven’t even seen the trailer. Heck, I didn’t even know Moana 2 existed until I saw some ads online a few days ago. Also, I just realized how cute Moana’s pig is. I should totally add a character like that to my project.

Speaking of my project, I didn’t make a ton of progress today. I mean, I got some things done, just not as much as I wanted to. Today was mostly video games. I felt super lazy and kind of stuck. This always happens when there are too many things on my plate—I end up doing none of them. I hate when that happens. I know the solution is just to start, but for some reason, even that felt like a struggle today.

I promise I’ll get some work done tomorrow. My plan to launch this project by mid-February still seems doable, but I really can’t afford to waste any more days.

That said, at least there were some wins today—I got in 5,000 steps and even squeezed in a workout. So, not a total loss!

Good evening, y’all! Just finished watching the Golden State Warriors vs. Oklahoma City Thunder game, and oh man, it was amazing. Seeing the 11th seed take down the number 1 seed? That just made my night.

And it wasn’t just the game that was great—the whole day was awesome. Had another chill day at work, which I think makes it three in a row now. I mean, I knew it was gonna happen. I even mentioned it in the entry I published earlier this week. I’m expecting the next two days to be low-stress too.

Literally just played video games and worked on my personal project during the day. It was a solid mix of slacking and being productive—just the way I like it. I’m not too burnt out, but the day didn’t feel like a waste either. Managed to get a run in as well. Since it’s Wednesday, it was a short one, but surprisingly, it felt really easy. I used to struggle with my Wednesday runs, but this time? No problem at all. Guess my body’s finally used to running longer distances without stopping.

Overall, the year’s off to a great start. Gonna do my best to keep the momentum going and make sure the rest of Q1 goes smoothly. There’s a big event coming up for me in March, and honestly? I’m a little scared. It’s gonna be one of the biggest changes of my life—no doubt about it.

Anyway, I don’t want to reveal too much, so I’ll leave it at that.
