Into february

Sharing small wins and what I feel during this month.

The past 2 week I've made more money than I had the entire year last year. Freelancing. I hate to admit that because I put so much effort last year and had nothing. Barely enough to cover my fare and food I ate when going out.

I was able to contribute for my grandmas birthday. I'm so happy.

I was able to buy accessories for my computer which is again in need of a new monitor.

So I'm currently not using it as of writing this until this is edited to add new content.

This month I was just accepted into HIFI Benilde an Incubator/accelerator based in manila.

I was anxious they weren't going to give me the letter or the agreement she was talking about because I expected to receive it after the call ended.

I replaced the startup name to - my startup.

Another accelerator also accepted though it came later in january.

I didnt expect it to receive so early after compliance. But yayyy! at least I wont have to worry about scaling and not being able to afford it.

I also finished watching an anime. Its beautifullll i wanna cry ahhhhhhhhhhh, its now my favorite anime. The main character has many handicap and most people underestimates him, one thing leads to another and ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Its an emotional anime with exemplary story and fantastic animation. Its superb, its my favorite.

[UPDATE: 03/08/26]: I made a trailer/game about it in scratch. Its a project for CS50.

I've never talked about it, but talking about my favorite anime, thought ill also just share a favorite movie. Its this so I wont forget the title again lol.

About life currently, I got a new monitor around valentine day, I paid a little on my debt - still had got lots - i remember using the money for so many things, it saved me miles in the road, I was so thankful for it.

I was also getting more comfortable with the school I was in. Im grateful to find people that are supportive and fun to be around. Im afraid I'll still be alone after all but you know Ive been like that for years and nothing bad had happened if anything I owned the process and had full control so I don't know why I had to mope lol.

Still fighting adversities. Staying disciplined and talking to God frequently.

[UPDATES]:

Today 02/25 I finally paid my loan in full. I'm terribly happy. I thank god this morning so much. I am so indebted to return the good to others. I feel very happy aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh. Honestly, there are days, i thought i wont be able to make it, I would just create alibis and i had accepted that alright I wont make it. Some days here were really quiet and uncertain and filled with worries. But somehow we managed to get through it.

Same day, I meet the programming teacher in informatics for the first time. I feel very happy about that as well. I have so many to thank for this month. Its incredible.

And about programming I've made it my goal to be better at it. To feel/be employable and feel like i can create programs and systems on my own. So i started leetcoding as well. It was a little horrific, also started with github things. I finally setup my own CI/CD because it was becoming redundant deploying manually via SSH. In other words I started exposure therapy this month and its amazing. By the end of the year growing like this. I would be so proud to share what i learned throughout the year.
