So at the end of December 2019, I would compile my college papers of that time in order to have this business card that linked to the PDF on the back. Printed off about 500 and had given many out while in South Korea at the beginning of January 2020 before the COVID lockdowns happened.
The PDF is at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . However, these two pages are really the impetus behind the whole 144ish pages of that book.
Really, a collection of college papers as my university papers could probably be collected into. However, why do that again when no one did much with the first book? lmao.

First Book's Reading, a heading for the playlist
GGoing Full RetardJoin me as I talk about a myriad of topics from Linguistics to Islamic Humanities to Roman Mathematics and, hell, even Philosophy; among so much more that pops in along the way. The PDF of my first book can be found at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe .5 views -
First Book's Reading, "Education Is The Gift That Keeps On Giving"
GGoing Full RetardThis is me reading my first book. The PDF is available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . It's better than getting or giving Herpes. I would imagine...10 views -
Change, Share, Leave the World (and be able to visit for tourism); April 6th 2019
GGoing Full RetardRight now, this is a stand-alone video. The idea is to make this the first video of a playlist for my reading of my first book of which a PDF is already available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . It's only the first part, and the second part is essentially combined in the process of reading this. Both took only about 17 minutes to read off back when I first wrote this speech. It is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pw06WAyCl4Y . Ad astra, per aspera. "To the stars, through hard work".23 views -
Covering the "Front Matter" of my first book
GGoing Full RetardThe PDF of my first book can be found at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . In this, I go through the first part of my book up to when the book technically starts with the material collected within. Not only do I just read it off, but I try to explain why things were put in the way that they were, even if they seem merely as one should do with a book or that they were just stylistic choices. Really, I threw the whole thing together and, since it is paper, it just ended up being one way of doing things which seems like it was the best. Unless we are known and have a style, we may as well publish our first fruits even if we think they are not worth looking at as one would a published book. And that may be the difference between Cain and Abel. Perhaps it was one person, they felt the reward of God but the anxieties from dealing with the world caused us to kill the reward we received from God; I dunno. Still. There was a lot of little things that I hid in here, "easter eggs", which likely were never caught even if someone should have seen it. lol. Publishing this video on Easter Day, too.14 views -
First Book's Reading, "Part Zero - Space and People"
GGoing Full RetardThis is me reading my first book. The PDF is available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . I wish that my first book was a blank book like Michael Knowles's. He should do a book reading of his first book, too. It would be the book readings of book readings, and leave everyone Speechless. Anyways, I tried reading this but like... It's an emotionally driven collection, to begin with, so as such it was emotional to get through while I can use the soapbox to explain what was missed in these last five years, potentially, that should have been caught had people actually known me. Maybe people know me, given that there are truly people who know Christ and we all have Christ within us. People just wouldn't expect me to be in need for, as I said while reading and came across the line, a "supportive community". I'm used to being neglected. Even when people are around, I am usually serving their desire to enjoy their night and, in a way, it helps me enjoy another bad day. Even though I like the saying, "I've stopped hoping for something good to happen, and started hoping that whatever bad happens is at least funny", in a way that humor is something good that will occur, whether or not it was funny or not when that something bad occurred. Anyways. Only an added twenty minutes to the time to read just the first part of the speech, which I read stand-alone to start this playlist off. Amusingly. ... The first part is shorter, 6 minutes when I first read it straight through back in 2019; the second part is longer, 11 minutes. And maybe the speech was its original length, this time, given that I already unpacked the first part by starting off the playlist with it before coming back to it. In a way, it's still all just content. Shitakke, ne!21 views -
First Book's Reading, "Part One - Seeing Through the Fog" 1 of 2
GGoing Full RetardThis is me reading my first book. The PDF is available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . Had to pee, so I broke this into two parts whereas I wanted to read it all in one go. lol. The next part, Part Two, will end up being broken up into individual articles as I did with later works from university. Since I was going back to 2015 and remembering how I used to be... Before seeing a particular person a second time and after seeing that particular person the first time, with a tangential taste of family in the interm as well as seeing a long-term penpal for the first time in-person... It is a bit emotion-provoking to re-read it, right now, so maybe it helps with understanding what was going on at the time of writing in 2015. Even if it looks clear and concise, it was very turbulent times. In a way, I have never needed to do this again in a public format since, well, I decided on a path for the future. But, also, perhaps in a way I am doing it again but without the solid paper, like this, because this is the same kind of reason why I do what I do now. It's like a 2.0 of 2015. lol. It is interesting, though, that... I guess I did pretty good even if I still kind of worry that there's more that I could be doing. I guess, if there was any thing more that I could do, it would be to publicly show off my thoughts on what I made public in the past. It's a little interesting to be looking at these documents after 9 years, hahaha. The 2019 space speech was looking at these documents, if I remember correctly (though, perhaps, it was still in mind or maybe not), and remembering the push forward towards space. Maybe it was when I compiled the book that I was like, "oh hey, I actually fulfilled the space thing earlier in the year with that space speech in April!). Still. The future could have been different. We didn't need to have the COVID retardation which had occurred. In a way. God knew that we needed it, perhaps. Look at what He wanted, at least me, us to see. ... A bright future. With Him. In the center of our lives. :)14 views -
First Book's Reading, "Part One - Seeing Through the Fog" 2 of 2
GGoing Full RetardThis is me reading my first book. The PDF is available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . Came back from peeing so as to finish off Part One. Not really much reason to expand further in the description when you should go back to part one of Part One... lol10 views -
First Book's Reading, "Part Two - Introduction to Liberal Arts"
GGoing Full RetardThis is me reading my first book. The PDF is available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . Given that this is the lengthiest part of the book, being that this book is a collection of college essays and other small writings... This is a video to provide a header for the whole next series of small videos which will make up the rest of this Part Two of the playlist. While I read off the titles of each paper and give a little description, at least we have a sense of the purpose of this part as I titled it and also discussed before simply reading off the paper titles and whatever popped to mind regarding them. Kinda interesting to read this off as a finished work. Never really intended it to be that way and, yet, it turned out pretty good. I hocked it as a finished work but, actually, it turned out to be great just the way it is. Obviously, I am spotting errors but, ya know, it's part of the charm of this work, as a finished work, I presume. There's not much reason to pay that weirdo lady $150 to make it look better when it was always supposed to be a "diamond in the rough" or, at least, rough. lol10 views -
First Book, Part 2-1 "ENG102 - The Smell Of Love Is Tobacco"
GGoing Full RetardThis is me reading my first book. The PDF is available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . This particular college paper is from July 20th 2017 for my English course. I forgot about the specifics that went into this policy paper for advocating a more tolerant, somewhat Portugal-drug-solution, approach to tobacco smokers to achieve a future with decreased levels of tobacco smokers and nicotine addicted persons. Took much longer than I anticipated to cover 10 pages, yes, but there's a whole lot of feelings that went into this paper and still have been repressed given that I have a decent policy that people likely don't care to hear, thinking it either is ineffectual from the starting point (smokers) or that the current policies are okay (non-smokers). Regardless. It was a bit of a shock to remember shocking things which I had included in this to make my point, and I even got myself a few times with how I separated facts to build up one side of the story and then crush it with the second half of facts from the same source. If only things were different after having written this like seven years ago.25 views -
First Book, Part 2-2 "PHI101 - Why Should I Stop Smoking?"
GGoing Full RetardThis is me reading my first book. The PDF is available at https://www.linktr.ee/hackingcovfefe . Just going to quote 2018 me, "curiosity is the defining characteristic of human success, but also to human demise." I explain some particulars about the audience and what not that almost got me to not be able to write this paper to begin with. Whatever lol. It's just something I've written and, like, in a way... I guess it might be decent? Whatever. lol.13 views
