Updates (Blog & Life)

Just a place for blog updates, what I’m listening to, and the bits and pieces that don’t need a full article.

Blog & Life Updates (2026)

June 12th

A watercolour image of a wooden table with a cup of coffee, a pair of reading glasses and an old photo of a helicopter, symbolizing looking back on old dreams.

Updated: How Dreams Change as You Get Older

June 2nd

A watercolor illustration of a laid-back, middle-aged man standing in a farm field on a breezy afternoon. He is holding a bag of powdered fertilizer, but the wind is blowing the white dust back into his face, hair, and clothes. He has a self-deprecating, mildly amused expression of defeat.

June 1st

Watercolour of a pensive older, weary noir-style detective in a dimly lit convenience store aisle. He is on his knees, holding a magnifying glass to the floor examining a small puddle of spilled 7-Eleven coffee, symbolizing his need for finding meaning in everything.

Updated post: When You Realize.. (Writing and jet lag didn’t mix.)

New post: Do You Have to Be a Little Delusional to Succeed?

May 14th

Life: Took a break for a couple of weeks. My Mum passed away, so I went back to the UK for the funeral. It was great to see my Dad, Sister, Aunt, and Uncle. Back in Japan for now.

Updated photo: My sister took a photo of me in the UK. Seeing as I don’t keep many, I updated my author profile photo with it to keep things honest.

Animated videos: Started adding one or two small animated videos to liven up a couple of posts. More are on the way.

On Repeat 🎧

I couldn’t get enough of this track on the plane back from the UK! Thank God for Music.

Currently Playing 🎮

Jumping into Apex Legends when I have the energy. The current season 29 “Overclocked” meta is keeping me on my toes. Doesn’t work with jet lag evidently.

Still Obsessing Over 🏍️

Still thinking about the Yamaha Niken GT. On my recent trip back to the UK, I noticed a regular bike meetup in West Bay near Dorchester, but no Nikens there. I still quietly hope I get one eventually.
