True-done
Justin Trudeau stepped down today after 10 years in charge. It’s been coming. I can’t say I know a lot about him, but it was definitely the right decision. Like many democracies, governments are rarely voted in; rather, they’re voted out, and Mr Trudeaus’ had overstayed his visit. It takes a long time for historians…

Ups and Downs
Today I had a bad call. Google called me up and said that my account had been compromised, and that a hacker had tried to change my password. Weird, sure, but to make it worse, they had used my Social Security Number to try and break through. So it looks like my identity is at…

Year 2
Today is my second wedding anniversary with Ky, so a very special day. It was also freezing, and Occi has been a bit of a handful recently, so it was a quiet affair. We went to our favourite cafe for brunch, and had a lovely dinner as well. In between we went to Costco. The…

Goal #1: Cold Showers
I’ll throw you a bone, Goal Seekers. On the list of the things I am trying to achieve this year, one of them is to do series of monthly challenges. Like in the software world, it is a wise idea to iterate quickly, seeing what works and what doesn’t. Trying a new habit, lifestyle, or…

A day in the life of…
The past few days, I have been living the VC life. And not the glamorous side of it either, ripping my Juul pod while rocking my Patagonia vest and All-Birds while offering generic advice to anyone who will listen. No, the past 48 hours has been deep in DD, Due Diligence. Venture Capital is misunderstood,…

Goals
Ky and I had a great walk today, where we discussed our goals for the year ahead. We split them into four parts: Relationships, Health, Financial, Career, and Personal Development. I have debated whether to share them on this, and for now, I think they’ll stay under lock and key. Perhaps the fitness goals might…

Happy New Year!
I was planning on doing a full recap, but time has escaped me, so I’ll do it tomorrow. Stay safe, be bold, have fun, and I’ll see y’all in 2025!

A year of writing
It’s almost been an entire year since I decided to start writing this blog, and while I haven’t written every day, I did so for 97.5% of them. Not shabby. When I look back at what I think went right, I think what stood out was starting slow. For the first month, all my blog…

Pre-Cap
Tomorrow is the last day of the year, and I was wondering if you, dear reader, have any questions you’d like answered! I am planning on doing a recap of the year, and my predictions for 2025. However, I’m open to suggestions, and would love to hear what you like, what you dislike, and what…

Invention
Walmart is an American icon. Love it or hate it, you’d be hard pressed to find someone who hasn’t bought something there. We went there today to show Dee and Ben around, and we thought it was a scream. In particular, Ben and I were captivated by the fishing aisle, where they had a rod…
