"This is a memo written in Nov 2025"

Looked like endless drizzle
Pitter-patter until finally the clouds parted
Who'd have thought
a sudden gale and downpour that day
slammed into my face
So sudden
So powerless to fight back
---------------------------

Walked many roads this year

January went home early for New Year.
Xiamen North to Quanzhou, flight to Zhanjiang.
Saw grandpa and grandma.
Drove family and grandma to the city for relatives' dinner.
Then flew to Jieyang Chaoshan Airport.
High-speed rail back to Xiamen.

Spent Spring Festival in Xiamen. First New Year outside my home province.
Watched Cross-Strait fireworks.
Spent New Year with an intern from the north.
Truly learned to cook.
Grandpa passed during Spring Festival.

February. Major career direction choice.
High-speed rail to Shunde to empty out a few days.
Visited university town alma mater, got alumni card into the library.
Retraced old ground—see the road that brought me here.
Seeking fortune in danger makes you forget why you set out.
Find the original heart.

April Qingming holiday Quanzhou to Zhanjiang
Night before back to Wuchuan to honor Liang Wenfeng's hometown
Next day picked up uncle at HSR station back to the village
Over 10 years since high school without going home for grave sweeping
Then Shenzhen chasing international influencer IShowSpeed
With a Xinjiang little bro—he got his wish for a photo.

May Day Labor Day HSR to Shenzhen, stayed at Boyu Vanke Cloud City
Roast goose, Hema seafood and crayfish
Simply love Shenzhen—city style matches me hard

June to Zhengzhou, Henan
Mixue Ice Cream HQ
Xuchang Fat Donglai
Xinxiang met online buddy who advised leaving the Xiamen company for good
First time on Xiamen Airlines before Gaoqi Airport moved

July back to Humen, Dongguan
Last Xiamen move, overnight in Shanwei en route
Temporary transit, close to Greater Bay core cities
Huizhou saw old client/friend—treated me to my first foot massage
Registered a shell company, months struggling with no business
Tried many directions, finally decided to join a company doing AI agents

Trial, settle, think life.
On why live—found an answer.
Found where talent lies, which route to take.

October moved to Shenzhen Nanshan

November. Agent development at a top AI video go-global company
Made many key breakthroughs

December. A small company I'd interviewed before extended an olive branch with strong intent and sincerity

In Xiamen watched A380 land twice.

Breakup was endless light rain that also washed haze away.
Out of pessimism's shadow. See greed, anger, ignorance. Self limits.

Self-consistent. Real. Follow heart.
Ordinary and diligent, not clever and opportunistic.
Spine. Calling the soul home.
Don't ignore the premise: time and life are finite.
