Just wanted to give you an update: It's been about six weeks since I last told you about the kitten we rescued from the second floor of our house. We decided to adopt him, and now he's an official member of our cat family at home. He's the fourth cat, and we named him Pipa, which is a direct translation of "pipe," the place where he got stuck. We are really happy with how healthy he has become today, and he loves to hunt some fingers to bite. Of course he always brings laughter for us at home.

As mentioned in the title, "cat distribution system" is a term often used humorously on the internet to describe how cats can randomly appear or be "distributed" into your life. This happened to me this week. (Note: In the home where I live, there are already three cats living with us.) So, this is how the new cat in the house was distributed. I will explain it in numbers to make the story clearer and in order. 1. We had been hearing a kitten crying since the day before. At first, we thought it was just a usual call for its mother. However, as night fell, we began to feel suspicious since the crying hadn't stopped. When we checked the source, which was coming from the house's second floor, we discovered it was coming from a pipe, as shown in the picture. 2. These are the efforts I made to save the kitten. I used raffia string, a rope made from rags, a small pipe, and nylon string. I managed to save the kitten with the nylon string; luckily, it could reach its right-front leg. (I made a small lasso, and it didn't hurt the kitten, by the way). 3. To help you imagine more clearly, this is the situation where the kitten was stuck. Essentially, it fell behind the wall marked by the line I drew. We thought we might need to break through the wall to save the kitten, but thankfully, that wasn't necessary. For reference, the height of the pipe is approximately 3 meters. 4. Respect for this smol creature. I think it could survive inside the pipe for almost 36 hours. Salute! (I still don’t know how the kitten ended up in the pipe.) 5. We immediately took it to the vet. The kitten was very weak, dehydrated, had scabies (though not severe), and was cold. Poor thing. We let it stay at the vet overnight. Finally arrived safe at home. Still needs more rest, eat a lot, and have a good shit. Hope it can live healthy and bring us happiness.
I bet that most people in the world have gone Googling to check the symptoms (or if something wrong is happening in their body) they have on their bodies. Don't ever try to those who have never tried it. Trust me. It just escalates your anxiety. However, the idea of using ChatGPT to interpret your medical results is quite intriguing, isn't it? As I explained in the previous journal, a few months ago, I had allergic issues, and I did a blood test to find out what had actually happened in my body. So, yes, the result was there, but sadly, the doctor didn't explain the numbers and the definition that came from the result in detail. She only told me that I had a deficit in vitamin D and low immunity, which was the main reason why I got this allergic thing. But, just in case you are wondering to re-read the result again, it's not a sin to ask the ChatGPT. (Again, at the end of the day, it's better to ask for the expert) The interesting part is that, somehow, I think the interpretation issued by this AI was quite accurate (at least for me). Based on this result, it knows which problems I actually have. But don't forget on the last paragraph it stressed to important to consult with the expert. So again, don't rely fully upon this AI.
I just woke up like 20 minutes ago, I think. So, rather than only strolling around looking for people’s lives on social media, I wrote something for this journal instead. Well, the most highlighted I can share so far is about my health issue that started back in February. Every night, along with my sleep deprivation problem (caused mainly by bad management in time and phone scrolling), I had these hives emerge on my skin, which usually happened in my thighs (calves as well) and arms. It's not too itchy, but it's obviously quite annoying me. It has happened every day since then, and I feel like a werewolf (no full moon needed). Right after or above 2-3 AM, if I'm still awake, t hese things gonna come on my skin. Some said that it was caused by stress(es), which I agreed, considering too many fucks that I’ve been giving in my life, be it about job (its security, performance, career), how to deal with team member in the office, how to achieve all the dreams that still stay as dreams while others can (thnx for ig posts and stories 😂) etc. Even a stray cat left alone on the street became my concern; plus, both of the president's sons "managed" their way to the electoral vote this year (one as vice president, and he made it. and the other will go for the Jakarta governor election) 😝. Since this “biduran” kept happening, I decided to check it at a hospital. To the immunology department, to be precise. And here are, roughly, what the doctor said to me: 1. Don’t get stressed too much. It can affect to your immune system. 2. No more lack of sleep. It does have the same effect to your immune. Start to manage it better. 3. Start to wake up in the morning and get out. Have more sun bath. (I need lot of vitamin D) 4. Avoid “makanan tepung-tepungan” like forever. 😭 So, for those who have a same issue like me, you better try to do these four things. Trust me, these work. (although, the 1 and 2 are hard to do.) A couple of days before New Year's Eve, I randomly purchased a so-called console-gaming PC named ASUS ROG Ally. The objective was simple: I wanted to revisit the past when it was challenging for me to play games. Back then, it was so hard to purchase games and even have a desktop PC with good specs to run games. And the console was a thing that was considered expensive. Few of footage I captured right after finishing the game. Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines
