I remember two years ago at this time, full of enthusiasm, I rejected Google and joined Grab. I never imagined I'd leave in less than a year. After a year of rest, the dissatisfaction I felt led me to choose to return. When I joined Capital One last year, I thought I'd work hard for a few years, but I never expected…

It felt like waking from a dream; it was already mid-March 2021. I hadn't started writing about this year after year, not because of a bad memory, but because I genuinely couldn't bring myself to write. This year at home made me deeply aware of what mental health and burnout truly mean—a life devoid of soul…

I've recently become really addicted to Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Every day, besides work, I'm practically glued to the game. Firstly, I've always enjoyed strategy games, and secondly, the social aspect of online games is still very appealing during this pandemic. Especially since you can achieve short-term stat boosts through in-game purchases. However, I've also discovered a major problem:…

I've found myself increasingly reluctant to write and share my opinions. The main reason is that I've noticed a phenomenon: if our understanding is not on the same level, our "ideas" are not easily understood and may even be misinterpreted. Rather than spending time explaining myself to the vast majority of people with different perspectives, I'd rather keep my views to myself and wait for the right opportunity…

Packing my bags always fills me with inexplicable emotions. No matter how many places I've traveled to or how many sights I've seen, nothing can replace the feeling of home, no matter how beautiful the outside world may seem. Life is like a journey; different people accompany us along the way, and we see different scenery, but ultimately we all return home. 2019 was a long year…

Ding ding ding! 2020 is almost here! Taking advantage of the Christmas holidays, I gave Jing's blog a major overhaul (well, if you've opened this post, it means you've already seen the redesign). New domain name... Because my previous blog was inexplicably blocked, it was very inconvenient, and also...

Change. I casually flipped through my passport today and realized that this year's entry stamps filled an entire page. Having traveled to so many places, the biggest takeaway is "self-discovery." It seems I've rediscovered the path I love, my own rhythm. That old mindset of "optimistic thinking and proactive pursuit," that fighting spirit…

Today I finally discovered a deep-seated longing within me: importance—the feeling of being needed. From childhood to adulthood, I've countless times fought my way through challenges single-handedly. But unknowingly, that fighting spirit gradually faded, and I became indifferent, prematurely indulging in the comforts of my early life. And society is realistic…

On Wednesday, I ended my month-long "playing and singing" trip in China, crossed the ocean, and returned to reality. Compared to previous trips, this one was much smoother, as it was my third vacation back home this year. I've become numb to many jarring phenomena, and although I still feel uncomfortable, at least...

Foreword This is a belated article. I'd wanted to write it ever since I accepted the offer, but unfortunately, resigning, moving, visa issues, and other things piled up, and I kept putting it off for a very long time. I originally intended to commemorate it with the title "Why I Rejected Google and Chose Grab," but as time went on…

After the group stage matches ended today, I found a restaurant near the hotel for lunch. While driving, I realized I was on a familiar road—the stadium where I played in my first American East Coast Cup. Although I'd only been there once, it still held a deep impression. In an instant, six years of memories flooded back. 2013, I remember it was a cold, deep…

I first encountered this term a few years ago while playing Persona 4 Golden on my PSP. It deeply resonated with me then, and although the P5 is now out, the "thoughts" it evoked back then remain vivid in my memory. Even after all these years, this concept continues to resonate within me…

This article has a rather complex timeline because it was completed in three phases. I originally planned to finish writing and publishing it before New Year's Day, but some events stirred my emotions, and a long-dormant cry awakened me. At the beginning of 2019, introspection felt like a deep wound, and I wanted to recover before publishing it, after all, previous years'...

Before leaving, I felt inexplicably down... It wasn't so much that I was reluctant to leave China, but rather that I was reluctant to leave my youth. The four characters for 2019 were clearly before me, yet for a moment they seemed like 2009. I've lost count of how many times I've excitedly strolled out of the airport, and I've also lost count of how many times I've complained...

After a month of unpacking, organizing, and a major shopping spree, this six-month-long home renovation project has finally come to an end. This project involved a lot of hands-on experience, from initial ideas in March to its conclusion, and I gained many insights. Thank you to all the friends who provided help along the way. From a simple idea in March to its completion, it has been a journey filled with many experiences…
