My kid just turned 3, and I hope that beautiful smile stays on her face forever.
I caught up with Ty recently—it's been ages since we last met in Shibuya. He's now building a YouTube channel and a community of developers in Japan. I’m happy to see him living his best life. Our conversation led me to reconnect with anh Phuong after almost 5 years. Now, we’re talking and sharing opportunities again. It feels great to be back in touch with old friends.
The national championship is coming up next month, and we’ve been training hard for it—two sessions a day plus two more free rolls a week. I need to cut my weight down to 52kg, and my shoulder is aching. On top of that, the marathon is only two months away. I know, I take on way too many sports competitions! I haven’t been running enough though, just about 30-40km a week, which isn’t enough for marathon training.
I’ve also started waking up at 4 a.m. to carve out three hours for myself before my wife and kid wake up. It’s tough to get up that early, and it means going to bed earlier, but it really makes my day feel longer. You’d be surprised how much you can get done in those quiet morning hours!
