Private Stories

Freshborn. On the left in my mom's hand, fearing the toy tiger under us. Indeed, my mom's hug is still the safest place for me.

Made my Dad cry for the first time, cuz I'm the Asian Champion now ;) I don't have so many pics, but I still remember how I bragged that I greeted the President (because he would make our family listen to his speech every new year).

I don't like this guy. He was hitting up on three bestie classmate girls, and ended up with only one (but not for long, because he didn't have a phone during the summer(never, actually, until he turned 19), and had to transfer to another school [studied at 5 schools].

15 years old. Many things happened. I got a leg trauma, and decided to stop with sports. Got into ITHub Lyceum in Russia with a full scholarship, but my parents went against letting me go.

15, big shift again. I moved out of my parents' to Tashkent and decided to open a retail business with my twin(4 hrs of sleep/day was a blessing for us now). tho my Dad had a couple of hotels and factories, I learned that life should always start with "I did", and the earlier the better. [and I was not close with my dad].

my brother was born [on the same day as my dad's birthday]. I love him the most, and most of his childhood, it was us playing together (sometimes it stole my 5 hours per day, just to play) I understood then how childcare is mentally exhausting.

big shift. we bought a house (tho with a mortgage) with my twin. We're treating it as a basement for clothes and a place to live for workers (we became a family) I started feeling more right confident in my choices, [but also learned that it's not what I loved doing, and sacrificing my studies for that was not worth it]

two years passed, I grew up a lot. Started making big money(but learned that money is not even 10% of what we need to have a fulfilling life), family moved in, and I started focusing on my education much more. I was humbled more than I thought I would.
