“Leaving Cupertino feels like leaving a dream that got too clean. San Jose’s messier—but it’s mine again.”
— Wing


🚚 Goodbye, Cupertino

I’ve packed the last box.
Unplugged the desktop.
Took one last late-night walk past identical tech offices and empty sidewalks.

Cupertino served its purpose:

  • Fast internet
  • Quiet neighbors
  • Ubiquitous boba

But by the end of 2024, I realized… I was orbiting the center, not living in it.
