Week 19: Life of a Software but 5-9

Photo by me @ Washington DC

I was sick this past week so working was high key a struggle especially when I lost my voice on Wednesday and had a lot of meetings… Otherwise, I felt so accomplished since I got a lot done 🙂

Dance

I was offered to perform with Modu Dance Crew in Rhode Island! I’m so excited!! I haven’t performed since Dancefest 2025 back in April :0

I have my first dance practice for it this week so I’m exciteddd!

Cooking

Last week, I ate out a tonnn. This week, I’m in my cooking era~ I’ve been watching a lot of batch cooking videos for freezer meal prepping and even ordered souper cubes.

I made some new dishes that I haven’t tried cooking before such as Korean soybean sprout and fishcake soup and Seolleongtang (a Korean beef broth soup with beef briskets, glass noodles, and scallions). It’s helped with my recovery from minor travel sickness with all the warm broth and soups.

I also baked a batch of mini bagels ❤ (4 poppy seed, 4 plain, 4 sesame, and 4 everything bagels) It’s become a super easy breakfast since making those bagels.

Tutoring

Tutoring was pretty rough because I was sick this week and my student was in a bad mood and really didn’t want to be present…

Gaming

I am continuing to play SuperStar JYP and am playing some other random mobile games like Word Associate Solitaire. I also started playing Magic Gardens on a Discord Server which has been pretty fun!

Planning for 2026

I’ve taken some time to reflect on what I could do in 2026. With some work meetings about 2026, I wanted to reflect for myself, personally, some goals that I can try to pursue next year.

I’ve never followed through with New Years Resolutions and stopped writing it entirely after high school. I didn’t see a purpose in setting those goals when I knew I wouldn’t follow through. To be honest, I still don’t know if I will follow through :/ but I think with how consistent I’ve been with writing my blogs, I can do it if I write about it.

So, for the month of December, I’ll just be brainstorming my thoughts and goals for 2026 on my blog. It’s more for myself, but it will be on here. I’m not sure when I’ll write/post it, but I just want to set myself a goal to brainstorm and write about it at least three times.

Traveling again pt 2

I was in Virginia half of last week seeing my friend! I haven’t seen her since February so it was really nice catching up and just seeing her again! Unfortunately, I did get sick towards the end of the trip just being tired and exhausted, but overall had a great time!

After planning out my week, week 20 blog is still happening 🙂 I’m mostly just adulting and running errands, but I think that might be interesting to write about and in a different format since it won’t be just my 5-9 but my whole day.
