Personal Learning Journal
This is where I get to journal about my personal life. Things that are happening with my family, my own psyche, dog, trips, etc. I love looking back and being able to read about moments in time. It brings me so much joy and nostalgia and hopefully an inside peek into my life for any casual viewers.
Trip by Train I was planning to go to Chile/Argentina/Buenos Aires originally but with violent protest breaking out in those areas I changed course and did a one-week long domestic trip to Seattle/Vancouver instead. I’ve always wanted to take a long trip through a scenic area by train and I figured this would be a […]

It’s been a little over a month since I’ve last updated my blog. I’ve been busy working on Unwage and helping my mom sell both of her businesses. It hasn’t been much of a priority writing on Milliardco because I’m still not sure the direction I want to take with it. It’s been a back

I’ve been in the process of helping my mom sell her salon and water store. Thankfully, she had someone come in yesterday that put down a deposit for the nail salon and they called back telling her they were interested in the water store as well. This has been a huge priority of mine because

I told my mom I’d help her at her water store. Now that my dad is no longer working there it’s been hard on her trying to run the nail salon while keeping the water store open. She’s currently in the process of trying to sell both stores so in the mean time, I figured

God’s desire for us to be like Christ I know that I’ve grown and matured as a man over the years. I think this is the process that God wants us to traverse. He cares about our spiritual and character development more than he does just seeing us get material possessions. It’s like most parents

I just found out today I won’t be moving on to second round interviews for the Sweetgreens role. I wasn’t really surprised since my resume wasn’t optimized for the role. I’m not really disappointed just trusting God’s plan for my life. I also haven’t gotten paid from CSS yet. It’s been almost a full month.

I did my interview with Sweetgreens HR today. I was pretty nonchalant about it because I looked up the delivery operations and logistics associate role on Glassdoor and it said the pay was only $15/hr. It was pretty disappointing so I wasn’t really interested in the role but I did the interview just to get

I’ve been a bit of a funk lately. I’ve been down on myself. The negative thoughts swirling in my head have been thunderous. As much as I’ve been trying, the negativity has taken me out of the game. All the negative thoughts start play over and over again. You’re not smart enough. Your situation is

Unfortunately, the position I was interested in was already filled. However, the senior recruiter suggested another role that might be a good fit. I’m not sure it’s something I really want to do. I’m interested to find out more about it and the Sweetgreen culture but I’m not sold on it. We’ll see how it

Today was an interesting turn of events. I was at Starbucks today thinking about what my next steps are now that I left CSS. While on Facebook, I happen to see a post by a friend that used to work at Panda Restaurant Group. She posted about open positions at Sweetgreens; a company that I’m
