After 2 months of waiting, I finally got a Sofa. 🎉 I know I still need art works, plants, shelf, mirror… but still, this space is finally turning to my dream apartment + workspace.🥺🫠

I was in shock, I had to be sure the money was real so I went out to try my card. Half the things I got, I didn’t need.😂

A thread (with proof) on how to land your first role in tech as a newbie.✨🚀 It’s a trick I’ve tested myself and found to be very effective. There’s a small caveat, but if getting your foot in the door is your goal… you won’t consider it a caveat. Here goes…🧵RT and share.

Sadly, I wanted to give a laptop to someone but went to their page and found they owned an iPhone 11. It may seem petty but I believe you’re doing just fine and you’ll eventually figure things out for yourself.💛 Let it go to someone else who is in a more desperate position.

Funny story? Before heading to bed on May 1st, 2022, I created a to-do list for my dream workspace while sitting at my plastic table. It honestly didn't seem realistic then. Fast forward to today, 10 months later… that dream setup is looking way better than I envisioned.🫠✨🚀

Finally found and paid for a house only to come the next day to find some yahoo boys as potential neighbors. Asked for refund because this company promised to screen every tenant but they’ve refused to return the 10% agency fee. That’s 120k down the drain. Lol, I’m weak.

Did you know that just a while back I used to beg for laptop under HackSultan’s tweets?🥲 Did I get it? No! Did I give up? No! Whatever you’re going through, don’t give up! That’s when you truly lose. Life is unfair but trust that the future holds something better for you.✨🫠

Lol, I don’t need you to tell me things to avoid. If I see you walking around with your trousers on ur knee, a can of bear in one hand and weed in the other, while dressed in flashy colorful clothes in groups of 4s or 5s (that look, dress and behave like you) with tinted Benz

Hey Davio, I don’t know what coincidence this is but it appears you live in the same building as I do. I’m your downstairs neighbor. And that’s just crazy.😂😂😂 Check DM.

My new apartment is coming together well. Tech has literally changed my life, moved into a 3-bedroom apartment.
