when do I get my adult certificate?
Happy year of the Tiger! 2022 is an even-numbered year so it’s gonna be extra good 🙂 I’m writing this during my second week of winter break, and it is glorious! The first week my daily step counts were in the hundreds, centred within a 20m radius around my bed, hahaha! The second week I’m…
Hello from 2022! Near the end of every year the last class will inevitably be filled with “see you next year, miss!” jokes and I love it every time, hahaha! Spendings Report: $2,112 What a nice palindrome number, 2112. What I’m most surprised by is that even with it being tuition month I only spent…
Welcome, new readers! This month saw a spike in visitors to this site, yay! For new folks, keep your expectations low because 99% of my posts are just monthly finance reports. When my master’s is done, I’d like to film some video content because that’s what I like to watch so stay around on the…

Net Worth Update In the $180ks woohoo! My goal for the…
Business as usual even in quarantine. There’s been a surge of new cases in China, and Beijing has implemented quarantine protocol for anyone travelling in from certain areas. I returned from one of those, Zhangjiajie, and thus I’m now in a 14 day at-home quarantine. Not the original plan I had for my summer break…
Reached my goal for this year* 2 months ahead of schedule! I still want to take a year off soon, unsure when but maybe when my master’s is done? It’ll be a really nice treat after subjecting myself to hours of extra math every night. Spendings Report: $901 After a few months of >$1000 spendings,…
