yes yes i know it's been a long time i know i know im unc now ohhh my back ohhhhh no my back ohh my neck my neck hurt ohhh Anyways, in all seriousness, i've thankfully been doing well. My IRL life is good in terms of academics and extracurriculars, i've been connecting with old friends more, i've been learning a few life skills and working out more, and overall i feel more fulfilled. A few books i can say are high quality from this journey are "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrarri" by Robin Sharma and "1984" by George Orwell. Both are highly reccommended reads. On top of that, I've gotten more close to god (Specifically Shiva and the Avatars of Vishnu - aka Krishna, Rama, Varaha etc.) and i've found some great youtubers. Hopefully all of you have been well, and I hope for the best for all of you in 2026. I'm really greatful to have had the opportunity to meet and know so many of you, and I really regret some of you leaving/going inactive. The following are examples.

If you're not on this list, either you didn't leave, you left but are still active (like me) or i just didn't remember because my brain combusted like a bomb @billybob37493/@KaiBillybob we all miss you billybob please come back pleeease you said you would come back during summer break but you didn't pleeease billybob i need this.......my dms are kinda empty..... @SphericalCreation lets be real you're not inactive get on territorial.io you kirk @Desktoplaptop idk if you have a new account or anything but you and a few others just popped into my mind a while ago and i just can't stop remembering how high quality of an individual you were, no glaze @callmehNOOB123 same as desktoplaptop, i think i was just remembering the whole cbu thing because i remember aulogic also popping into my memory @sleepy_countries100 this was from the EARLY days of my "career" as a countryballer so i think it's a mix of nostalgia and actual kindness towards me but yeah come back please that would be tuff you were and are an awesome person to be around who puts a lot of work into your projects, again im not sure if theres a new account or not but alas ok yap sesh done have a great holiday guys i think i might give shoutouts to people on my projects more oh and also there might be a possible countryball return in 2026 depending on how im feeling peak
