Music and what it evokes
There's music that you enjoy, there's also those that you experience. As I'm on my 30s, I'm drawn to these music that gives a whole experience rather than I just enjoy.
First time tracking my Strength Training
This is not body building by any means. This year (again) I made a commitment to stay fit and hopefully my wife will too. My goal is to gain strength for stability and longetivity purposes. I noticed that I severely lack strength that are needed to perform in certain tasks, hence, I am training mostly for joint stability, grip strength and muscle activation. All talk aside, here's my first ever data on strength training recorded on my Garmin:
Advantages of being in your 30s in the Workforce
You are experienced enough that the likelihood of you getting hired is higher than younger (less experienced) and older (more expensive) competitors. You are aware of your market value. You are confident enough to negotiate and get along. You have sufficient cushion to take the hit of not having a paycheck in case your job search takes longer than you expected. You know quite deeply how your industry operates.
Movie Review | AWAKENINGS
The films I'm interested in are those that my wife love to sleep on--and this is one of them. Also, this is one of those long posts that I write for myself so there's nothing here but a documentation of what I randomly do. So I just watched this film on Netflix in the midst of snowy weather here in Texas, it is about a story of a doctor in the 60s working with patients that have suffered a rare illness called Encephalitis Lethargica or commonly known as Sleeping Sickness and treating them with a new drug.

When you are that person they won't see you as their competition, they will see you as a person with good intentions.
Emotional Damage
I think the reason why I have such a bad temper is that I have a lot of emotional baggage that I internally carry. There are experiences that I have had that I just could not let go or they seem to re-play in my brain. When we were dating back then our relationship was far from perfect and I seem to always get reminded of those painful imperfections.

A NOTE ON MASTERY
You can't call yourself a master of something if you've only done it for only 1-2 years.
Searching for what was already found.
As we meet new people, we get exposed to their desires and preferences--a new set of noise in our own silence. Eventually, we can't avoid that we get influenced by what's around us--the places we've seen, the cultures we've observed and the novel things we've discovered; however, I hope we never lose our self-identity just to match our circumstance otherwise we'll be in this never-ending cycle of self-discovery even though we're already found.
