Step 1. Looking Back
I visited a friend and their partner in Busan. They gave me new angles on the relationship issues I've been going through. It was nice to hear about their own story from ten years ago, prompted by my situation.
Apparently I was one of the only visitors who never asked them to "show me the ocean." They seemed touched that I came to see them, not the ocean. Slept great at their place.Connection with my study group members kept me from completely drifting away from class this week. We shared warm conversations, pulled April Fools' pranks, and exchanged ideas like using Antigravity and Claude for code-to-textbook workflows.
A side project proposal came in. As we talked, I found myself thinking about who I actually want to work with and on what. A kind of wariness kicked in, and I didn't react right away. I'm glad I paused.
I spotted a pinwheel during a walk. It bothered me a little that it was tied to a tree, but it gave me a strangely artistic experience. The structure was simple, but the material was clearly intentional.
There were a couple of moments where I struggled to manage my emotions. Meditative approaches like grounding haven't been working well lately, so I got on the rowing machine instead. The absence of those who used to be a source of comfort is hitting hard.
Step 2. Giving Myself Credit
In the middle of a lot of uncertainty, I made an effort to seek support from meaningful relationships. Relationships are mutual, after all. I'm in the process of accepting that some things flow in directions that have nothing to do with my own thoughts or efforts.
I had to communicate my opinion on something, and I handled it in a way that met my own standard of dignity.
I built an MCP product. The pattern of sinking emotionally in the evening and then rising into a build session showed up again this week.
Step 3. Wrapping Up
Where I fell short
I had a hard time regulating my emotions this week, which cost me some focus during class.
What I learned / discovered
- Image model pipelines (YOLO, etc.)
- Switching costs between tools are dropping — VS Code + Claude Code, Antigravity, and others. At a conference over the weekend, I was introduced to several workflows (SEO & GEO, multi-agent setups) and the gap between hearing about them and actually using them was almost zero. No more hesitation.
- I built a daily capture system that collects, categorizes, and synthesizes everyday fragments through a single input channel: iMessage. It's been running smoothly so far.
A quote that moved me
キミがうまくいかないところは
みんなもうまくいかないところだよ。
つまり多くの人のあきらめ地点と言ってもいい。
このあきらめ地点で耐えて
工夫して努力を続けて乗り越えた時
キミは他の人が見られない
景色を見ることができる。
