Sunday almost ends. I have only two weeks left before the Christmas and new year break. I hope I can finish important works before I leave my work this year. I am doing the last user experiment this week. Then I will do my experiment later this week. This week I will decide what experiment I should run for that. Then I also want to summarize and write my report of my project. My scientific project was given for about two years. It has passed for 5 months. So I can write some progress. I hope I can submit three papers before the interim report which is due in May.
As for investing, the stock market around the world somehow is unstable now. The VIX index rose last few weeks since the Omicron variant came out. It is not very high but not like the last several small market corrections, the VIX index is not going down quickly. My portfolio was good until October but is now so so. This year, I am learning a lot about investing. Important thing is to keep investing. And I want to get the return in long term. This year, I started writing blogs for ASX research. I finish 5 of them, maybe I would like to 5 more by the end of the year. While I will actually invest what I think is the best. I learnt that building a portfolio takes time, I have been investing in Australia for three years. I will keep doing research on the ASX companies and hopefully, I can learn more about business in Australia more. It was just three years but I think I am confident that I can keep doing this. Anyways, I will keep writing AXS research, maybe once a week.
I am reading the manga HUNTER*HUNTER and watching Dynasty on Netflix, and reading “The Goal” in English and “The will to keep winning” in Japanese. I would like to practice the guitar more, maybe one of my goals during this winter break is to learn how to play “Hotel California”. I have tried several times but I could not do it.
Anything else? I am enjoying myself again by reading books in English. I love the Kindle and Audible whisperlink. So I can listen and read books. I love to do it, maybe I can start writing reviews for these books. I am not a native speaker, so I can’t write a good review but it is still something I can write so I can understand better the book I have read. Anyways, I will keep writing so eventually I hope I can read and write better on reading books in English.
So the week will start. Let’s enjoy working and life. I am always looking for good science to work with and find something interesting in life.
