I have just found out from Instagram that Wengie has changed her name Wraya! I think it suits her and she is growing and evolving. I totally support her. You can just tell that she is super creative, a hard worker and revolutionary with her ideas. She has absolutely fantastic taste in everything!

She's at 2 million followers on IG now but I think we'll most likely see a surge shortly as she's launching new music under her new name Wraya. I'm expecting a more grown up and edgier type of music. I can't wait to hear it.

If you're reading this Wraya, I think you are an amazing person and make sure to take care of yourself. Hard work will pay off but you need to have the health to enjoy your successes and life. I'm rooting for you!

If you saw my tiktok recently, then you'd know that I have been job searching. I've probably had over 10 interviews and 5 declined letters within a span of 4 months. For the other five, I assume they didn't want to bother telling me that I've been declined. It's been heartbreaking with each letter so I'm not mad at the no responses.

It is easy to blame others like they made the wrong decision or they don't know what they're missing but the straight truth is: it's me. I'm a terrible interviewee. Also, I need to get better on my sh*t. I'm interviewing for web development positions and it's hard because I just graduated from a coding bootcamp 4 months ago and many of them don't want to hire on noobs. They want someone with more experience in the development realm. Don't worry, they haven't seen my tiktok nor youtube channel because they don't know my handle or else, they'll definitely not hire a nut like me! 

Until I land a job, I'll work on getting better on what I need to do and getting some mentorship help. If you're job searching too, hang in there!

If you want to help me find a job and offer some tips, you can answer some of the questions about interviewing that I have asked on my YouTube. Starting with the first one.

PART 1: Do you agree with an advisor's tip to not mention about having kids in an interview?


PART 2: Do you agree with an advisor's tip to send a thank you email to your interviewer within 24 hours, even if you bombed the interviewer?

I don't know how accurate my scale is but I was shocked to find out that I'm now 123.2 lb. On February 23, 2021, I went to the doctor's to get some bloodwork done and they weighed me at 133.8 lb. I found out I had really high cholesterol 2 days after that doctor's visit and started fixing my diet right away. I'm eating less meat, more vegetables and fruit, less processed food like white bread, chips and sweets and substituting meat with beans and legumes, whenever I can. I also added fish to my diet more regularly.

About a couple of weeks after starting this diet, I lost about 3 or 4 pounds. I felt better, more limber and was breathing better too. I knew I was heading in the right direction. Because of my busy life, I can't fit in a work out yet but I hopefully will start being able to soon.

As per usual, every one weighs less in the morning so my current weight at 123.2 lb today is before eating breakfast. My goal was to weigh 120 lb by July and I think I'm going to reach that goal within the next month or so if I'm able to keep this healthy diet up. To be clear, this is a lifestyle change for me. Before, I was eating really unhealthy. I would eat fried chicken at least once every week, ate French fries like they're staple food and ate instant noodles and chips regularly. I was eating like a hormonal teenager all the time. It was bound to affect my health. I'm in my late 30s now and putting myself in check.

I do give myself a free day every once in a while. Thus far, within the last 6 weeks, I've eaten a greasy burger with garlic fries once, 1 bag of Asian instant noodles once and allowed myself to enjoy a mochi from my bokksu box a few times. 


My starting and current weight:
Feb 23, 2021: 133.80000197 lb (scale at doctor's office)
Today on April 5, 2021: 123.2 lb (scale at home)

Importantly, the doctor's office said I need to exercise regularly so that is the one thing I have not been able to do but have to start doing this month. What can I say, doctor's orders!

Yesterday, on Christmas night, I watched Wonder Woman 1984 from HBO Max. Since we were already subscribers for HBO, it allowed us to watch HBO Max without an extra fee. To find out that I could watch the new Wonder Woman movie and not had to pay more than we already have been for our monthly subscriptions was a gift!

I looked for my Wonder Woman leggings (from Forever 21 before they closed many of their shops) that I have been hoarding in my closet and wore them while watching it. See my tiktok video where I was wearing my Wonder Woman leggings. It was awesome! I was in the best mood. I liked the movie and I'm so glad that I watched the movie without reading reviews online because that would've affected my first initial organic reaction to the movie. 

Without giving details about this movie, I'll tell you that I still liked this movie, even though the first one is still better. However, I'd watch this one over and over again and it would still make me happy!

Since the holidays are coming up and the weather is getting colder and cloudier, it's a good time to do another face treatment. 

I generally try to stay away from the sun when I either do an intense treatment on my face to remove my syringomas or do a skin peel and the less sunny weather helps to prevent damage to your face. 

My next treatment will either be a TCA peel or Wart & Mole Vanish. I really have some noticeable syringomas right now and really want to do the Wart & Mole Vanish treatment soon but I also don't want people to be disgusted with my face if I have to have a zoom meeting over the holidays. I definitely cannot do both. That is too much for the skin. I would usually try to do an intense treatment only a couple of times a year, spaced at least 4 - 5 months from each other.

Let's hope I can do it before the 2020 year is over.
