What’s next

Action first.

It has passed 45 days since I finished my GRE test in Dec 21, 2025. During this period, I didn’t do anything matching to call a milestone. I, inescapably, was affected by the environment, which lacks triggers of trying something hard yet is full of elements advising me to lie down.

I have changed my plan several times this month from preparing for IELTS test again, to studying vibe coding, to reading a book relevant to bitcoin. I am still confused what to do next.

I admit I have done something wrong, like packaging my luggage in Hangzhou and delivering them back to Shangqiu, because my original plan is leaving Hangzhou, but I kind of want to back Hangzhou 🥲. Living in one person is bad at first. I missed my families a lot when I stayed in Hangzhou in one person for almost 6 months. After living with them for 2 weeks, I changed my mind again. I must be in one person for continuous mind flow and independent life.

So, what’s next?

When I consider it from a long-term perspective, answers will emerge.

I get my answer. Writing is thinking. True.
