  • I just learned Jacinda Arden has resigned as the Prime Minister of New Zealand. I do not know much about her governance. But, her leadership and class during some tough times in NZ are truly inspirational for future leaders. Incredible Kiwi!

  • I went for an early morning run. I’m buzzing with energy. I should do this often. πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

  • My Todoist Pro is due for renewal on 28th Jan. I’m unsure if I still want to renew it. I have been with them since 2015, and it is hard to decide!

  • Last night, I observed a lot of traffic in our local gym.

    The car park was full and machines were occupied all the time. It took me a while to realise that this is just the “I’m going to the gym this year” rush.

    I bet most of the “new” gym users will drop out after March.

  • I got a newsletter from Blot.im. It is good to see the platform alive and kicking. I was under the impression that nobody is actively developing the platform.

  • Photo Challenge for 2023

    Welcomed the new year watching fireworks at New Brighton Beach.

    I have been meaning to take a photo daily. I have identified that I overthink the caption to get it right. It just puts undue pressure on me, and I end up not posting. So, here’s the challenge for 2023: Shoot and Publish! Simples!

  • I watched Glass Onion and enjoyed it. I liked how the film mocks Idiotic Tech Billionaires and entitled brats. One thing I did not like is James Bond’s Southern Accent. Why Daniel Craig Why?! I didn’t like it in the first one and I didn’t like it again. Ace film!
