the day before the birthday

 hello blog,

i woke up late today for work. haha. snoozed the alarm. woke up at 7.30am, the time that work starts. drove to work about an hour. well, it was a night of deep conversations, being woken up in the middle of it for my darling to break some news to me about her best friend.

today i listened to about three podcast along the common theme of the "brain"

The Next Big Idea: the Brain: A user's guide to the blob between your ears. where neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett debunks the three stages of brain that has been commonly taught in schools. i.e primal lizard brain, ... uhh. ah says it's not for thinking but more for budgeting and how memory works.

and then there was erm another episode that just talked about the primal brain. lol

i think it was Your Undivided Attention.

or maybe it was something else.

anyway... i noticed that the podcast that i listen to in a day. share common themes for that day. how cool is that?? coincidence . i think not. 

i remember one time it was a bout "Responsibility" or something like that.

to be responsible for our own actions,

i would like to be able to do that. like.... take up responsibility.. really.

I messed up life quite bad now and then.

i bought a 1TB Samsung SSD for NZD180 "accidentally" and was a little hesitant to tell Crystal about it. It's one of the very useful purchases i feel.

anyways. i should lie or hide anymore things if i'm to live togther with this woman for the rest of my life. (the song "honesty" is playing in the background now..... honesty is such a lonely world... its hardly ever heard.... its what i need from you.... its playing on my google nest mini speaker... 

i wish i took the google wifi hubs from Sylvia when she offered it. instead of trying to be nice and said that i talked to Chris about it the night before and found out he bought them expensive and would be unwilling to pass them to me. well i was honest then. haha . hope i can just pick up a second hand router and set up my own personal wifi.

i'm thinking of studying to be a newwork engineer btw.

should i?

IT...

python, linux, dockers, etc.....

seems intresting, but can i do it for the long run? coding and all

there's some CompTIA certifications on sale now 98% off... so tempting

70USD... offer on stacksocial on iColledge

so yeah....

tempting. but do i have the time? yeah heck i do.. one hour a day or something.. if i could partition my life that would be good.

i think i accidentally installed a virus from some bogus website to crack the Hard Disk sentinel on my crypo mining computer too.... haha too hasty. watened to run down to cook the potato pizza.

should be more chill...

i'm quite happy with the mining actually.

11.52pm... 8 more minutes till my 28th birthday.. yea!

going for chinese massage at newmarket tmr and a fancy dinner with my darling!

no WORK! (i hope i get to skip the planting of the small plants) i heard from Tim it's the worst thing taking the baby plants out of the truck... it's back breaking.
