Updates (Mar 18, 2026)
2 years ago in the fall time my brother-in-law and my sister came to visit.
We went to get bubble tea on the main road North.
What did I learn about growing up with a sibling married?
Relax and take time and enjoy. Tons of time left and at around 40s we are just winging it.
But when I am still living with my parents life is go-go ??!??!?!?!?!??
My parents forced me to mature at their rate. LOL!
Holy shit I am tired and stressed. But kind of happy overall.
…
When we were drinking bubble tea as a family, I realized what I did.
This was 2 years ago.
We were at a multicultural area and the coloured people sat played nicely with the majority here.
Over the last 6-7 years I played the model minority role and played nicely with the majority and got to where I wanted in society with my software and websites.
Coloured people shopping and getting drinks noticed that my success was because I played nicely with the majority and the customers that were coloured understood what I did and listened.
…
I am not saying playing second flute is what happened.
I got really old and studied sciences so that had merit.
I studied chemistry, biology and computers so those things were logical and fair depending how much you knew. The more you know the better evidence. Simply that is all it is.
So what is the message?
If you grow up quick, you realize studying maths are the answer for voice and upwards mobility in society.
…
Holy shits … so I finished school in 2023 … as a Vietnamese child of Boat People I created this blog the 4th time … I talk about this and that. What has it come to?
I guess because I am full South Vietnamese with no admixture, I had to write a blog to explore and journal life at this old stage where I am not working 9 – 5.
This might help other Vietnamese understand what like is like not working 9 – 5 and working towards yourself for feeling good and upwards growth.
Before I was sick, sick and sick. Down, down and down. Unhappy, unhappy and unhappy.
In the past things were linear, at a set level and things never could circle until my brother and I jumped ship and did what we liked.
Canada and North America has systemic thinking … so I had to change to think in levels too but positively and universally accounting for the levels too ???
Thinking this way requires a lot of thinking, a lot of work to universally think.
…
I think this blog is setup good now.
I need to at V1 posts and V2 posts from the past to make it a source for new programmers of immigrant background again learning to develop custom software and to learn the roadmap.
