No international trip yet.
Got my passport last year and still hoping to travel somewhere outside the country. The second half of 2025 looks nearly impossible for international plans. Packed Calendar.
About Learnings:
-
I started documenting my work and projects early last year. This year just proved how useful that habit is. It saves a lot of time and brain energy. It’s easier to jump in just by glancing through my docs.
-
About AI. all good. The first few months, I was using it for literally everything. 80% of my day was asking AI, from improvising blog to picking colors for my sofa covers. But I realized… it only makes you smarter on screen. Once you’re on pitch in middle of stadium, it’s not around to help. So for the past couple of months, I have consciously cutting usage to about 60%. I try solving things on my own first, till I’m drained, and only then turn to AI. Keeps the brain engine running.
-
Started journaling personal and work to-dos in a diary. Been helpful so far.
-
Getting better at DevOps. Small wins.
-
Cut down on alcohol. For some reason, it just doesn’t feel right anymore. There’s this guilt feeling after even a single “cheers”. I have been listening to podcasts, reading blogs about neural damages. ‘Dawai nahi he re baba’. Trying to make better choices.
About Life:
-
I turned 30. No major feelings. Just grateful for the choices I made.
-
‘She is the One’: still status 404.
-
Wandering around cafes in the evening, sipping hazelnut lattes.
What’s next? No clue. But I’m showing up. With coffee. And curiosity.
