I was supposed to write and publish this yesterday, but I chose not to do since I was very busy with another edit for Netflix.
Today was supposed to be the deadline but it got shifted to tomorrow which means I will also be busy today but I canβt choose to ignore it today since its already a new week and idk it doesnβt feel good to delay this any longer.
Personal Highlights
So it was a nice short week which started off with me being free but then later on I was asked if I wanted to edit another video[different style], I had planned to say no for any other video [made that evident in last weekβs blog],
but I said yes because I kinda wanted a new phone so π€§
For the first half of the week before the thought of buying a phone came in my mind I was as happy as a [phrases are cringe bruh, totally not relatableπ]
Yeah so I was very happy and content with myself, but then once the thought came in my mind I just kept thinking about it, researching about new phone and shizz ππ
Will write about my phone buying journey in the future blog after I get my money from them [which is btw 1-2months away]
- WRITING UPDATE
Failed at my goal of writing 2000 Words
- READING UPDATE
Read one short story every day from Monday to Friday, got super busy from sat so wasnβt able to read anymore.
I even wrote very small summaries of the things that I read, lemme know @ inbox if you want to read them, I will send it to you there
Btw I received my copy of Animal farm, which I will start reading from today or tomorrow.
- MEDITATION UPDATE
I think I completed my first ever 30 days streak of meditation.
- FITNESS UPDATE
Uh as usual
Oh wow i didn’t realize before taking this ss, This is my highest weekly distance, ever since i started back in oct.
Damn π€©
- MUSIC UPDATE
I have had the most fun this week playing keyboard, I am kinda getting good at it and also I was playing the things which I had already completed back in feb so it felt much nicer. I will get back to where I left by mid-jan , after that It will be interesting to see how much I enjoy.
- SLEEP UPDATE
Whack β
Oh and also my goal of waking up everyday at 5 and learning web development failed miserably π
Thoughts from the past week
Like I said I was very happy at the beginning of this week which forced me into thinking about it and how I got so happy in the first place, was it because of my morning routine or my commitments to my habits and writing them down in here. Both of which have helped me get back to track.
But its still somewhat confusing as to why I have been so happy lately, its just as if realizing and being grateful is actually a long process and takes lot of repetition to actually be good at and when you are, you get to be happy.
But when I think critically about it and analyse the various aspect it just could be that I got lucky with a lot of small things.
Or it could be the anticipation of money that I am going to get for editing 2 videos of Netflix π€
And I am not going to admit it because, Money cant buy happiness right πβββππ€
Opinion
I don’t think any person changes you, itβs just your own neurotransmitters doing the job and making you more adapt to the situation over time. Often time people just credit their ex for changing them when the real credit actually goes to their brain π§
Social Media updates
Nothing really just twitter BS, I like being active on twitter because its very empty unlike my Insta.
There was once a time not so long ago [2018] when I hated twitter more than anything. Mainly because of the normie who shared screenshots of tweets and called em meme π€
Look how the tables have turned now I am planning to be more active on twitter π€ͺ
Oh and a BIG Follow up UPDATE about my upcoming YT video, about which I wrote here last week..
I have the audio [Almost Final version] from Wodds(Anurag.mz) for my music mashup vol 3 YT video.
Initially I had planned to get started on it from tomorrow and finish it by 25th but now I donβt think that will happen because,
I wonβt be able to use my pc
on 23rd and 24th [Room painting typa beat]. So I guess I will have to work on it from 25th
PS: Planning to do a small editing livestream on 25th on my 2nd YT channelβ¦ Idk letβs see if I can do it.

Every time I see someone separating memes from the βhaha funnyβ sector I feel Relieved XD
Creators π€Ήπ»
I watched a few of his vid, and really liked how he was so calm and easy with the failed copyright thing which he received.
Apps π±
Not a new app but a followup to an old recommendation:
in ShareX app on pc, you can assign a hot key for OCR and then everytime you want to copy any text from any image or part of the image you can just click that and the text will be copied to your clipboard, I found this really helpful
SONGS πΆ
Satendra sent this along with this Epic Playlist
π³ Bengali song π₯Έ
Podcast π
Did not listen to a lot of podcast as I was completing listening to this audio book:
The Knowledge Illusion: Why We Never Think Alone
I had listened to ΒΎth of the book back in feb, after getting free trial of storytel, but then my subscription ended and I wasnβt able to complete it.
But now last month I took a 3 month free trial of audible which gave me 5 credits to buy 5 books and so I chose this π€ Along with a few others which I will share in the future πΌ
With that being said it wasnβt like I did not listen to any podcast I actually listened to two of em,
My love for varun mayya increases everytime I listen to him talk about neuroscience
Oh also i listened to this
This was kinda clickbaity and Prakhar is sort of a dumbfuckcunt who doesnβt really know programming language but keeps promoting it π€
Someone please explain him that there isnβt much a 5yo can learn, programming is like drawing to me but with additional layer of problem solving attached to it, Problems which a 5yo cannot understand because he/she is simply not experienced.

Goal(s) for the next week π₯
I donβt think I should take on any new goals before fixing the primary ones, like writing and sleep.
So, in order to get back I will not try to do anything this week XD Not even fixing sleep and writing, instead I will take it easy this week try and go with the flow and see what happens.
This is something that I have picked up from meditation, This sense of easygoingness πβββ
With that being said this is the end of the 2nd blog of 2020, really excited for the last week of 2020.
Donβt miss the next blog as it will finally have meme music mashup β¦ well hopefully it does β
