Money in, money out! Let’s all scream and shout!

Long vid doing well and the comments continue from around the world! What will this week’s vid be? Should I do more “this is my life in China”? But I really don’t want to go too much down that road.

How is automation going? Didn’t get a chance to work on creating that Notion database, but I think it’s a good idea.

Worked on another long video, a collection of video clips from South Korea. Wondering if I should add a narration over it.

No work today because… MFA didn’t work!

Russian class done, a bit rough as I haven’t spoken in a while. Do you review your classes after you finish?

Looking at MORE automation.. auto-splicing of content? What about a Notion database?

Rethinking those morning classes! Knackered this morning!

A walk arounds the neighbourhood, another long vid posted to the language vlog.

Lunch time run done, slow going, but got it in. 6.45km in 1.03.09, plus all the pull ups, push ups, squats, lunges, and jumps, and duck walks but at half pace.

FYI, TikTok works if you switch your SIM card to the second slot but keep it as your primary number. Just in case you were wondering.

How was today’s Traditional Chinese character class? Used Google Jamboard for writing so I could use my iPad while also viewing the screen on my laptop. Learned 差 which means lacking, like 差不多and cuo 搓 which means to rub in between your fingers or something. It’s been an interesting class so far.

A note on the iTalki whiteboard usage

Prepping for Episode 2 of the Language Podcast, it’s a neat idea.

New York has drones supporting the police service??

Knackered, woken up by a falling plant.

Watching flights zoom by, why? Saving on plastic bags ain’t gonna do jksht, and… while I’m here doing my thing, someone else is doing another (cool) thing over there, up in the air. Ain’t that neat?

How was Cantonese class? Thinking of moving all of my classes to the morning and simply trying to get up earlier.

Workout in! Slow going, 7.01 km in 52.35! Plus some slam ball work today.

SILVER on the move, what does that mean for GOLD and precious metals?

Low altitude flights to be offered by 2027?!


Cantonese… what were you going to say?


Getting shtuff proofread, so hopefully will have a few more longer reads put out soon. Never done this before so no idea how it will all work.


Morning Chinese class: did you know the word 我 is comprised of two Chinese characters 戈 (gē) which means “weapon”. So, the 我 character is actually about two fisting weapons in order to protect yourself!


Lunch time work out with the mace and club! Do you video your workouts???
