life updates – Oct 2026
life lately
- went on my first cruise ever! it wasn’t seasickness that got me, but the “land sickness” after disembarking. felt like i was still on the boat, my POV was wavy and unstable for a few days
- preparing for a very eventful November. lots to pack up, things to sew and repair before all the activities on my sched soon
what i’m working on
- getting at least 15 minutes of sunlight everyday. in this weather, that means stepping out whenever the sun breaks out from the rain clouds
- smoothing out personal and work task management systems. integrations are messy at first and there’s a lot of offshoots and side quests that you encounter as you build
learning
- revisiting cookbooks in my collection and adapting some recipes
reading
- A World Without Email – Cal Newport (still unfinished)
- The 5 Love Languages – Gary Chapman
watching
- Salt Fat Acid Heat on Netflix – i like how relaxing the pace of this one is, all while talking about the fundamentals of flavor
playing
- none at the moment
