Didn’t make any clips or filmed the backlogged unboxings yet.

Literally handwrote reflections and timelines for Q3 / Operation “Quantum Leap”.

Operation Leap Frog is nearing mission success…

---

I’ve learnt that my fate is to be a four-wheel-drive rolling down a hill with no brakes.

While I used to be the kind to take the long winding road down, stop and help others with their stalled engines and give them money, there was once a time when I stalled and no one came.

Now, with where I am, if I so take my hands off the wheel, I am doomed to roll on my side and crash and burn.

My hands are on the wheel and my eyes are locked straight ahead.

If you want me to stop, you’d have to jump into my speeding car and replace the brakes while in motion.

No pressure at this time as I might ask my parents for help, and/or sell my VR & vintage laptops that I hardly use since I edit, stream and write more on my main/2nd PC these days.

2 years of building what I believe is the “next-generation” of author as a brand; vtubing and content creation–literally going from a healthy positive person with plenty of friends to a bitter solitary cynic who has sacrificed it all IN SPITE of their deteriorating health.

–and I can’t turn back either; because there are tons of people in my country whom I’ve turned my back on for being “slow” and “doing the bare minimum”. I’ve backed myself into the corner, on purpose, to force myself to go the distance.

I’m here, alone, and perhaps that’s both the answer and the result of…

> healthy / paid office job with free healthcare; spiritually miserable, your achievements do not belong to you, but the company; quit after 1 full year

> unhealthy / unpaid passion with subsidised healthcare, mild spiritual fulfilment, the glory is yours to keep, 2 years but…?

People who have all the time and money in the world would never understand why I had to make those choices.

Every day, I live under a constant time pressure… a literal “DEAD” line. (look for that pic with the “writing on the wall”).

A window of opportunity may exist for only 12 hours and if you’re busy working for others, or partying with others, or look upon the achievements of others, you will lose.

Last year, I was guilty of this–and I paid the price with my health; and even when I took steps to improve it, by leaving the “parties” and clubs, the people who I thought were my friends; ones who would support unto the very end, were just there because I was a “janitor for the club” with the “key to the backdoor” to “take out the trash”.

In a way, I’m more mad at myself that people refuse to take my advice or warnings, but that’s on them.
The decision is ultimately theirs; they are not horses refusing the water.

Whatever I’ve done, I’ve done this year for myself, selfishly.
But even then, I am not happy, but rather still suffering on the grind–the only difference, is that I am at peace.
The white noise of the clubs and parties are all gone.
