💭 Life

A software engineer pressed the career pause button and decided to leave Taiwan temporarily. From career bottlenecks, housing justice to struggles with the original family, this is my true journey of leaving for Australia and Japan to find a different way of life.

A three-day trip to Tokyo chasing stars that I didn't want to go initially, allowed me to detach from daily life, rediscover the vastness and relaxation of the world. Also chatting about Tsubame-yu, Kawazu Sakura and Aimer's concert.

2024 Year in Review, a year where the spring loosened, briefly mentioned what I completed and what I didn't, and my pain. Discussed my expectations for 2025 from life, career, finance, and interpersonal relationships, and decided to take good care of myself before exerting influence.

My Facebook account was suspended without warning, losing all past posts, photos, chat history, and groups. I recorded the incident, lost connections and memories, reflections on social media, and future plans here: ensuring data autonomy, actively managing information sources, formulating social media usage guidelines, and focusing on building small and close communities.

Discussing in detail "Draw Your Own Map" mentioned in the 2023->2024 Annual Review, how the map helped me, how to draw it, and my map version records and current status.
