Finally watching Adolescence. I'm sure my view might change, but right now I'm seeing a boy who had little guidance in life and who feels unbearably powerless and was subsequently bullied online until he snapped. I have no pity for him, but society failed him

Did an online quotation for some insurance and wasn't happy with the quote so I walked away. The company has now been phoning me 2-3 times PER DAY for a WEEK to try and convince me to get their insurance. Was I too rude? 😅

Paperwork: signed ✅ Money: transferred ✅ New house: mine! ✅ The transfer of ownership only goes through in March so I can't move until April, but I own my own house! 🥰🥰

I've found my new favourite podcast! Diary of a CEO with @officialsteven.bsky.social covers such an awesome array of topics, he asks brilliant questions to get the most out of his guests, and it's not gimicky or over the top. It's just good, solid conversation and info. Highly recommend! 👌

So my first web development project was to create a resume in HTML - no other languages so it's not super pretty 😂 Feel free to check it out and give pointers, it's not an esports resume though, just a normie one 😋 naorimizuki.github.io/html-resume/

I have decided to learn a new skill. Wish me luck 😂 On a serious note, esports is my first love and my life, but not having a back-up plan (especially at my age) is just not smart 🫠

I started my journey in June last year at 100kg. I'm now under 70kg for the first time since HIGH SCHOOL!!! 🙀🙀 First goal: achieved ✅ New goal: 65kg Ultimate goal: 55kg Let's get to work 💪

I got covid from the Green Day and Offspring concert. Was it worth it? You bet your ass. Would I do it again? Without a second thought. Fuckin phenomenal way to kick off 2025 😍

Samantha Timms 🇿🇦 @naorimizuki.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

In just under 12 hrs I will be standing in a huge mass of people watching Offspring and then Green Day walk out onto stage to fulfil a dream I've had for more than half my life. I cannot DESCRIBE how excited I am 😍 the only thing that could have made this better would be if Blink 182 were here too 🥹

I made a critical error. I came to Cape Town 4 days earlier than I needed to so I could kiss the homies ... but I forgot the homies have normal jobs and can't just come out in the middle of the week 😭

I'm part of the 30% 😅 I've known since I was a child myself that I wanted to be a mom and I'm so excited for that day ☺️ Could even be in the next 3-5 years 😍😍

And just like every year, this one begins with major uncertainties around my future in Valorant esports. The mental gymnastics to keep positive are getting exhausting. I remain far less concerned about CS. This is a far more reciprocal relationship and I'm so grateful every single day 🙏🙏

2025 off to an absolute cracking start! 3 year anniversary with my player 2, bought a second car AND bought a house! We can only move in April so pics will have to wait for the house unfortunately 😅 Just call me NaoriAdultzuki 😎

Welp, the holiday is officially over and it's back to real life today. My soul is not ready 😂 luckily it's a pretty slow week so we can ease into things 😊 Anyone else back at work today? How's your day going?

Spent an hour on the phone with insurance brokers. It was very scary and I'm now very tired, but I officially have car and household insurance in my own name! 😄 Being an adult is stressful 🫠

House hunting is such a pain, my god. Finding the right place at the right price that doesn't need too much work done before someone else can swoop in with a better offer 😩😩 I'm exhausted 😂

HECC! @blastpremier.com inviting Imperial FE is such a massive step forward for women's CS, I'm so happy they weren't just skipped over due to the nature of ESL Impact being a closed circuit. The work is paying off! 😍 Article link 👇 blast.tv/article/blas...

Few things can make me judge you more than buying a purebred, stereotypically aggressive dog and NOT training it. You are setting that poor animal up to fail because YOU are inept, cheap, lazy or all 3. Do better.

Sonic is tearing it up at the major right now! Heartbroken about COL but sooo happy to see another South African grabbing this opportunity with both hands and really performing well. Please make playoffs, you're ZA's last hope! 🙏

I tear up watching some of the content created around these major esports events. Screams of joy and tears of sorrow, they all evoke such a strong physical response. This is why we compete. This is why we watch. This is the love of the game ♥️

Ok, Complexity let me down but WILD CARD HAVE A CHANCE! Come on boys, do it for ZA 🙏🙏
