Hello everyone!
(You guys don't have to read everything here, just the first part is the update lol)
Just a heads up, I will be flying to the Philippines mid next week. I have mentioned it in some of the reactions but in case you missed it, I've decided to basically set up a second home in the Philippines. Before I get into detail about that, here are what to expect for uploads:
I honestly won't be missing much. Just some uploads will be pushed back to the end of next week. I've already filmed the first ep of Universe League, and so the second ep will be on schedule. Tomorrow (Tuesday), I will film the two My Dearest Nemesis eps but the following eps will be delayed to the end of next week.
For ZB1's comeback on Monday, I will film the MV reaction for Youtube and will try to upload that by the following day as well, but the album reaction will be filmed/uploaded towards the weekend.
Those are it for next week as I will be running errands half of the time, then we will most likely be back to regular programming the following week. I just have to get my wifi connected and we'll be in full work mode.

You guys don't have to read this part but definitely feel free to!
So back in December, I decided to move my stuff out of Vancouver and back to Winnipeg with my family. I came to this decision as the standard of living has really gone up in Vancouver. I had moved there in 2023 thinking that auditions were still in person but lo and behold, they are online. So I thought you know what, I can do this from anywhere and just fly in when I book something. I booked 2 movies when I was there which were great and earned me additional income, but I think living somewhere cheaper and then flying in for bookings might *still be cheaper than living there.
I was living in the Philippines back in 2022 but as some of you may remember, a trusted friend scammed me and I lost a bit of money. That did a number on my stress level and mental health and that's a good portion of why I flew back to Canada. I needed to do some healing.
This time, I am *hopefully wiser and should be able to acknowledge the red flags a bit more. I did like living there and that is why I choose to go back. I feel that I have a bit more social life - with like minded people. People have the same hobbies and interests as me. Not to mention, closer to everything Kpop.
My working situation is also not ideal here in Canada. I have my studio set up in the dining room and have to strategically time when I shoot my videos while my family is at work/school. That's why you guys may have seen less content from me than before. So when I have my own place again, I can film anytime I want! Woohoo!
I love my family here in Canada, but I have nothing else here (aside from possibilities of acting gigs). It's a great place to retire honestly. It's quiet and chill (although cold). But as I hold onto my youth (lol), I can still experience more of life before fully settling down. I'll definitely be back and forth between the Philippines and Canada. There's less pressure to be in one place forever. Thanks to you guys I am able to do this!
All in all, life is truly a rollercoaster. There's no pattern or blue print. We live and adjust to circumstances. Who knows, I may land in the Philippines and then book a tv show lol. Life is crazy like that haha!

Hi Jeff, I've been a long time silent viewer of yours. This just hits so close to home. I made the decision to move back to the Philippines from the US jjust recently too, with the luck of working remotely. I don't regret moving and everything feels better, especially mentally. Wishing you all the best with your endeavors. Hopefully you get a big stint in the homeland too. That'd be for sure epic. Enjoy the process lang. It's all gonna be worth it!
