I’m FINALLY losing weight!
I finally started losing weight. It hasn’t been easy but I’m so glad I’m finally taking this step in my life! For a couple of months now I’ve started counting my caloric intake and although it’s been working, it wasn’t until a couple of weeks ago that I’ve been taking my weight loss very seriously. I lost a bit over 5 KG already and am determined to lose another 20 KG.
My New Year’s Resolutions for 2026
2025 is coming to an end and what a horrible year it has been for me. For about 9 months all I did was sleep and feel bad about myself and my situation. Burn out sucks and I’m glad my energy and joy in life is coming back. Although 2025 sucked for me I am going to try to make 2026 a better year for myself.
I'm kind of done with gaming
I'm kind of done with gaming. Not in the dramatic "I'll never play games again" kind of way, but I am noticing a shift in my interests, one of those shifts being a lack of interest in video games. At first I thought it was modern gaming's fault, but then I stopped being a prententious dick and figured out that it wasn't gaming's fault: it was me. I am outgrowing a hobby I've loved ever since I was a kid.

It’s okay to do things just for fun
I do things just because they’re fun. Not because they have inherit value or because they get me somewhere. I just do them because they’re fun. That’s it. This might sound simple but I can ensure you that when I first set out to do this, it wasn’t easy at all.
Japan changed a lot in 8 years
I've been back from my Japan trip for about 2 days now and don’t get me wrong, I had a good time. I met wonderful people and even got invited to go on a helicopter ride by a complete stranger, but nontheless, I can now say with confidence that I’m done with Japan.

I needed ChatGPT for this Movie
Today I watched an anime movie called Perfect Blue and let me tell you: it was confusing!
I bet on Politics and LOST Everything
I like gambling. I barely every do it, but when I do, I love it. A week ago I discovered a new form of gambling though: PolyMarket. PolyMarket, through the magic of crypto currency, allows one to gamble on anything and everything.

I'm Feelig a bit Better
These last eight months were truly awful. I experienced little to no joy in my life for a long time—but now, a spark is starting to come back. It’s still small and needs to be nurtured. I still need to take it easy every day. But instead of being constantly exhausted, I’m finally starting to get a bit of energy back.

I Quit Coding
Last year, I made a video about how I wanted to learn to code. I said that if I learned how to become a full-stack web developer, I could get a fully remote job and travel the world. Unfortunately, after giving it my all for a full year, I’ve decided to quit learning how to code.

It's NOT that damn Phone
I doubt that people are actually addicted to their smartphones. I do believe many are addicted to social media. But why aren't we blaming PC's and laptops too then? Smartphones are very useful tools, not addiction machines.
You Need a Hobby
You need a hobby. We all do. I realized how important hobbies were when I noticed how many people believe they need a job to feel fulfilled.
Please Save Your Money
You don’t need to invest your money. You don’t need to buy low and sell high, or invest into a meme coin and pray to the gods that it’ll 100x over a timespan of 5 days. In my opinion, there is only 1 single thing that you should do: set a savings goal and achieve it over a timespan you’re comfortable with.
Walking Saves Lives
Walking saves lives. Now I understand that’s a bold statement, but I stand by it. Walking is a mental super power that is able to turn your life around. It did for me, it has done for those in the past and it’s still doing so for many of us right now.

I Quit My Well-Paying Job
So recently I had the chance to go back to my teaching job, with even more benefits and job security. Basically, my future was secure. Yet I turned it down. Let me explain...
Summer 2025 Anime Recommendations
Summer 2025 is here which also means another batch of new anime is upon us. In this post I'll be talking about both completely new anime as well as new seasons of already running shows. I won't be going over every new release either, only the ones I'll be giving a try myself.
First Time using MacOS
I found €85 worth of giftcards in one of my drawers and decided to buy a Mac Mini M4. I'm an avid linux user but am quite surprised by how nice it is to use MacOS. It did take a bit of tinkering to get it to my liking though.
