You don’t find your passion
You create it.
And it takes an enormous amount time and effort before you become passionate about something.
I didn’t get enough sleep
and you can tell
Milkshakes
are good
Telescopes
are gay
Frogs
are nice
The struggle is real
but so is the reward
And the result is…
A massive success!
To be honest
I feel kind of terrible right now
Yesterday and what I did was very awkward and the video I recorded today also felt weird
Maybe I just need to push through the suck for it to get better
It’s freaking Friday yo
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah!
ok but seriously
when is hytale going to come out!?!?!?
I still have dreams
of being on my minecraft server… and there being other people there. Usually between 3 and 15 people.
And what’s even harder
is trying to do something or create something that doesn’t involve the past in any way…
Why is it so hard to figure out how to move forward?
I tried to make minecraft videos again at the beginning of this year and it just didn’t feel like it was the right thing to do so I stopped. Or maybe I just need to do something and keep doing it until it doesn’t feel weird anymore?
I’ve noticed that
In certain parts of my life there is a very distinct “before and after” divide.
Now the question is…
How do we move forward?
The biggest thing
is to remember that it’s all about the little things
Roses are red
Nostalgia is blue
Unregistered hypercam 2
come on come on come on

Alright I’m on the [REDACTED] team
Doing hydrogen energy storage or something. Maybe things were supposed to work out this way.
Now that I think about it…
The initial spark that got me interested in self-sufficiency and decentralization was one of my modded minecraft worlds that I started in early 2019 and stopped early 2020.
I can’t believe it
it’s spelled “Febreze” not “Febreeze”
When life gives you rocks
Make them roll

Comes in waves
Not in boxes

“Make it stupid easy, but do it every day.”
Ayyyy
I’m writing more stuff now!
I really need to write this…
I need to write the “autobiography” before I forget too much.
I keep forgetting
I need to make a proper home page.
It’s about getting the fundamentals right
Words have enormous power and influence
The only certainty is uncertainty
Be purposefully direct, brutally honest
Speak softly and carry a big stick
Be extremely concise
Lead by example
A scattered mind and joy cannot coexist
Get your 9 hours of sleep
Clean your room
Fail fast and often
Focus on the intersection between technology and humanity
Make things people want, not a tech demo
Workplace culture is crucial
Steve Jobs also said
that focus is about saying NO
Steve Jobs said…
Something like the dots only connects looking backwards, never looking forwards.
This is very true for me, and I realize it whenever I look back at my old notes.
I don’t have time to do everything
and sometimes I don’t even want to do anything
But I want to do everything.
I think the novelty and excitement of the world wears off faster for me than most
When I was little the world was so colorful and vibrant and I had strong emotions elicited about the most mundane things like the rainbow caused by the sun refracting through the patterned glass window or a new video game (like the first time playing Minecraft). Later this all wore off and the world seemed to get really dull and boring. Being in college now, I’ve done lots of interesting projects and achieved lots of great things which has changed that, but I can tell this excitement will likely too wear off. But I think there is way more in the world to learn than I possibly ever even could so I should use this phenomenon to my advantage and pursue greater achievements and constantly learn new things.

That Bad Advice
Some people like to tell those who are dealing with depression to just “love yourself” but they hate themselves. You’re telling them to go from one extreme to the other like it’s a dang light switch.
Note: I’m not dealing with this problem, just a random thought.
I don’t care anymore
I really don’t care what I make videos about but I just NEEEEEEEEEEEED to make them
Deleting
I deactivated my twitter accounts, deleted my github accounts, deleted my old website and forum. Still more to do but this site will be my permanent home from now on.
Boomboxes are wrong
If a boombox is a box that goes boom then shouldn’t a boombox be a bomb?
I’m literally just getting started
Maybe I haven’t been wasting time. Maybe everything happened the way it was supposed to. This summer may have just been an obstacle. This is not even close to the end of the opportunity tunnel.
Going to reinstall Windows

Server Ideas Part 2


Have some ideas
I have ideas for a Minecraft server. The question is should it even be a Minecraft server? Should I wait for Hytale to come out? Will I even be able to implement my ideas in a Hytale server?
Mildly Interesting
This Halloween sticker has been on this door frame since 2007.

Went to the dentist yesterday
I think their computers have had the same wallpaper since like 2015.
Hello world!
My website has been created!
I need stability and simplicity
I’ve known for years that…
social media and the internet hive mind is pure insanity and yet looking back I was still sucked into it and was also driven to insanity. I know better now.

Middle School Story
This story is about a chain of paper clips, which is about as interesting as it sounds. In the sixth grade, I had a couple of small FedEx Office boxes which contained various items such as a mini stapler, sticky notes, tape, and rubber bands. In this box was also a large number of paper clips. I often got bored in class, and one day while messing around with these paper clips I discovered that they could be easily linked together. A couple of days went by, and soon enough I had assembled an absolutely massive chain of paper clips. My teachers weren’t at all bothered by what I had made and were actually impressed. One day after lunch however, I was confronted by a school administrator who pulled me aside to lecture me about how extremely dangerous this chain supposedly was to myself and others. He then confiscated it and I never saw it gain. I assume it was thrown in the trash. Rest in peace, paper clip chain.
I’m starting something
I’ll work out the details later but I just need to start something

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL…
AND I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD GIVE ME A CALL WHEN YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO GET A HOLD OF THE 1960S TEAM FOR THE UPCOMING YEAR TO BE ABLE TO MAKE SOME CHANGES TO OUR WEBSITE
Those Three Months
The first three months of school are always the worst. Nothing happens between September and late November besides work.
Today I’ve installed all sorts of software on both my phone and computer to help me stay off social media. I’ve read about how effective it is at improving your life and productivity, so I’m giving it a try. Ok, I lied, I’ve been trying for months to stop but I haven’t been successful yet.
I just started doing the “other thing” today as well. I’ve never gotten far enough to determine if it really does work yet.
A Redneck Fight and Doing Homework in the Dark
I’ve been wanting to write something in here for some time now but I have been too busy with homework. Today the power went out after a storm that wasn’t even that bad came by. It took them almost 4 hours for the electricity to be restored and for me to do my ORGEO homework.
Not much has happened between Monday and today, but on Sunday I went to Austin with my parents to visit my brother at UT Austin. We didn’t get back home until 3 am and there was some rough weather on the way. About half way back we stopped to get some beef jerky and there happened to be a bunch of rednecks engaging in a shouting war at the 7-Eleven parking lot. Fun.
A new Notebook
A new Notebook… again. I’m abandoning the big blue one because it’s so damn bulky and heavy. It was also really weird at the beginning and I didn’t want that cringy stuff. I plan on using this for writing down information and the things that I’ve always usually written.
I AM AM NOT SURE…
IF YOU ARE HAVE THIS OR NOT NOT THE INTENDED BUT IT’S OVER.
Some Improvements
For several years I have been trying to figure out where I am going, who I want to be, what I want to do. For whatever reason, I didn’t figure it out right away. The answer is pretty simple: I’m not going anywhere unless I take myself there. If I want things to change, then I have to make it happen.
“Day 40” (book of 2016 – 2018)
Today, I talked to [REDACTED] for the first time in well over a year. We’ve been messaging eachother on rare occasions, but haven’t had an actual conversation in a very long time.
Funny how I wrote “Today” 15 seconds before midnight.

Power write 9/30/13
Round 1: Yellow, doubt
The man with the yellow gloves said, “I doubt that God exists”, Everyone hated him.
Round 2: Maximum, monster
The soldier said, “we need maximum firepower to defeat this monster!”
Round 3: Factor, function
“A factor of the Nuclear Reactor facility was that power wires were damaged causing the Reactor to not function properly, causing a radiation leak. It’s good we all have hazmat suits!”, the man said to the workers at the facility.
Kitchen Detective
I see the kitchen. Clean, peaceful. It is early. Flying plates with pancakes on top. It seems that ghosts have invaded the kitchen. I quickly leave the house and I try not to wake the family up. The ghosts escape the home as the sun rises, everything left looking un-touched. The family wakes up and eats breakfast, but the pancakes are missing.
Power Write 9/23
Round 1: Navigate, movie
The movie was about a man trying to navigate through a swimming pool full of people. The man got lost.
Round 2: Power, responsibility
“John went to go tell Steve that he had a responsibility for controlling the power.”
Round 3: Hope, blossom
The man hoped that his TV would blossom with crazy colors.
I Remember
I Remember… August 17th, 2011, I found some sort of video editor called “NCH, Videopad Video Editor”, I got the 40 day free trial and started messing around. It was so easy to use, I made a 5 minute video in less than 20 minutes! I added effects and transitions between clips and it was so fun! The next day I made a video called “Darth Vader Breaks In”, and it was about Darth Vader breaking windows to steal things and escape. I got a bit sad when the trial ended but the exact day my friends came over, I had found a Videopad Video Editor installation CD in the mail. Me and my friends made crazy videos about “killer clowns” and “The Thing” which includes a vacuum cleaner that shoots cans of Slim Jims out the window and random explosions on the CD player. Now, I thought that I was stupid after that but even now it’s still funny!
July 2023 Note: I think I found Videopad before August 17th.
August 2023 Note: It was most likely August 7th, not August 17th.
