I’m sitting in my new apartment. It has actually been more than two years that I have lived in this apartment. But, it’s new to me. I’d only lived alone in Los Angeles for less than one year (2004-2005) before I moved here in 2023. The rest of the time I lived abroad — South Korean (9 years), Saudi Arabia (2 years), Oman (7 months). Oops! I forgot. The real rest of the time, I lived with mom and dad. Yup, it took me a long time to move out of their abode. Now that I am independent, I am married, and truly independent. Actually, I can’t afford to live in Los Angeles. My mom and dad are still supporting me. I don’t feel so bad, because my grandmother was supported by my mom and dad in various ways until she passed away at 91 (or 92). Having a supportive family is integral. At present, I am a substitute teacher in Los Angeles. I haven’t been blogging as I have been dedicated to learning to create videos on YouTube. To date, I have 719 followers on YouTube. Please subscribe to my channel: https://youtu.be/1MtjAFyJilM?si=yNW_JmBRQvDQ5a4_ and watch this video to boot!

My video content has focused on my appreciation for the life and legacy of rapper Nipsey Hussle. I have found a great deal of significance in his life and legacy. If you’re a fan of Nipsey, you’re in the right place. I have found something so miraculous and impressive that you don’t want to miss it. Here’s a video about what I found: https://youtu.be/QbIfvYo5zMc?si=4YMeZqrdVTN1H8i7

There isn’t much else I can explain here. In fact, I should keep it short, and simple, stupid. Oh! Summer vacation will be upon me very soon. I hope that I will have the chance to travel to Japan, Switzerland, and Spain, again. That would be a dream! Thanks for checking in with me. Oh! One more thing. Last week, I read the Alchemist for the first time. It was an amazing story. It’s 37 years old and I finally read it. I’m a late bloomer. But, I think I have perfect timing.
