Right now, my focus is just to get my weekly blog posts going. The format of the blog posts has shifted over time as I’ve experimented with it and learned to write quicker. It takes about 4-6 hours to write each weekly post, longer if I want to do deep-dive research into a topic or do something weird. Many of the earlier blog posts have weekly sections that got culled at some point as I adjusted the focus of the blog.

The ultimate goal of the blog is to have a place where I talk about my life’s journey and how each individual part — my family’s migration from Singapore to Canada and me growing up as a Canadian Chinese, my depression and gender transition and subsequent happiness, my job, games I’ve played, anime I’ve watched, friends I’ve had, and everything else — influences each other and ties up together into one big package. The weekly Memory Snippet segments help me build toward this by bringing my past forward, while the Life and other segments help me chronicle the current days and find the little miracles in daily life.

In the interim, I also hope to scan lots of random documents that I’ve collected over the ages as a digital archive of things, for future historians to come across, as my intended audience for the blog are readers 100-500 years from now or even beyond. There’s no SEO or paid advertising on the blog, as that would get in the way of the purity of chronicling, though I do organically mention things that I like and dislike. Diaries are valuable windows to the past, and this desire to preserve the present and speak to the future is my life goal that drives me.
