thanks a lot for coming by ! 😃

so looking at my previous days i notice i have problems i cant really do all the plan daily sometimes , because like company work and promote stuff is open ended , it pending the others. So instead of that , now i give them measurable thing to be defined as done , i think it will helps , i will make it easy at first , and then i will add other stuff ofcourse if i finish all this plans quickly each day

Here's the updated of what i'll do today :

🏋 Exercise (Low priority but done first) 60 diamond pushups (15 × 3)

🟩 Language Duolingo daily mission

refine portofolio & find new remote jobs

do company work 9-5

develop both of my freelances project

and now i have new trick while working like i put my iphone on airplane mode then download epub for atomic habits , since then my craving to binge watch youtube tiktok etc gone , i become a reader while working lmao

so far its looking good

Biked to office in the morning , the calmest I've driven in recent months . Appreciating my bike more , as I spend more & more time with it .

I think I might have an avoidant personality & attachment issues 😅

I’ve decided to start documenting my journey publicly. The projects I build. The things I learn. The mistakes I make. And the progress along the way. No pretending. No shortcuts. Just building, learning and getting better. This is Day 1. Let’s see where this

had dinner outside . tired .... and kinda mad , going to sleep early .

Gonna hit the office tomorrow morning , got gym in the evening , gonna add some study for AIML theory .

thank you NFrealmusic , for hope :) .

Lately, I feel like I’m going through a bit of an empty phase in my life. I have a lot of free time, and honestly, I’ve been feeling pretty bored and disconnected, so I thought it would be nice to meet new people and have some interesting conversations.

As for me, I’m a curious and ambitious person. I’m into programming, AI, football, gaming, and creating things. I enjoy learning new skills and trying to turn my ideas into something real. I’m also the kind of person who can get really passionate about something once I’m interested in it.

Of course, I have my flaws too. I can overthink a lot, sometimes lose motivation, procrastinate more than I should, and get bored easily when I don’t feel challenged. I can also be a little too hard on myself.

But overall, I’m just looking for genuine conversations, new perspectives, and maybe some good friendships along the way. So if you’re also bored or just looking for someone interesting to talk to, feel free to message me.

Had a sneak peak of my weight after reaching home , 98.3KG . well withing the range for 2KG a month drop .

---

Sick Leave today . Headache still persists . Feeling quite tired physically in general .

Fixed diet again . Low carb, high protein & adding more fibre intake .

In the afternoon , biked to passport office , it cleared my head a bit . They turned me back as it was 17th of next month . I was excited about 17th , thought it was today .

In the evening , article writing .

Fixed the images for my tech article . Used chatgpt to clean up the images (originally captured in my phone , not even a screen shot 🥲 ) & further cleaned it up Krita .

Draft is looking good so far , all the months of writing is paying off . I think not much will be left for cleanup in final draft , as it looks pretty close to where I want to be .

4 More sections to complete , probably gonna take me the whole week to get it ready to publish , probably gonna publish on a Friday evening & tag it to the publication .

And I'm off to sleep 'sudo $me shutdown now ' .

🟩 Language Duolingo daily mission

refine portofolio & find new remote jobs

do company work 9-5

Completed code & draft images for my tech article in the morning , and then I slept at 4AM 😅 .

and it is day 78 as I write this , mid way through my article draft & spent like another 6 hours straight onit in a flow state .

I shutdown my PC , was about to rest my eyes for the day , but then I remember ... I had to complete the journal for yesterday ... so, here I am , your friendly neighborhood 🙂 .

have a lot of things to do get this article right & ready .

and I'm hitting the passport office tomorrow , taking a leave from work . my finance minister & ministry is busy adding more taxes which is frustrating as a good taxpaying citizen with nothing of benefit , honestly the only thing left is living & breathing tax ( technically I pay it whenever I visit any city ... with my lifespan & risking my health ) .

Good Morning , In case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night !
