First draft of the site
Yesterday, I bought the domain Alex3am.com, and today is the first day I'm working on the site. Need to start slowly adding my achievements and everything about myself to the site. It's the beginning of a new story.
For now, the site is on the same Framer file as BeforeMVP.com, just a redirect from the domain to /alex3am, because I'm bootstrapped and not wasting money unnecessarily :)

The first day at Midnight Works
Starting today, I am a UX/UI Game Designer at Midnight Works, the biggest and coolest game development company in my country, and beyond.
I'm at a point where I really need real experience in large projects, and who knows, maybe in the future, I'll focus on game development.

Moved to the capital
I moved to the capital, got a new apartment, 18 years, and in two days, I’ll start my first-ever job at office.
Life is so crazy…
This is a small event that shows me I’m in a right path. It's the first time I’ve realized how much everything in my life depends solely on me. I’m becoming more independent, cooking for myself, thinking about how to manage my money more accurately. Finally, I’m alone and can work daily until 3 AM :)

Closed my biggest design client ever
At the end of February, I closed a design client for a website + a simple but fairly complex SaaS project, and I worked on this project throughout March. The client came to me on their own after seeing my posts on X.

The first $20 from X as a design service
I decided that I needed to monetize my X account somehow, so I launched an offer called HiPixel Indie Design Session, where I provided design feedback for $20/month.
On the first day, I got a client and helped him improve his management app at the UX level. Didn't get any more clients after that, so I decided to close the project.

First $ from Lemon Squeezy
I created a custom GPT about time management, and someone decided to buy it. After that, didn't have any more clients, so I shut down the CustomGPTs project.

First $ from Gumroad
I saw that everyone was doing giveaways on X, so I decided to do one as well, sharing some of my ideas regarding the new updates for GPT.
It brought me 200 new followers on X, and someone from them decided to pay $5, even though the guide was free.

The first day I discovered Twitter
I posted my first tweet on September 26, 2023, and since then, it's history. This platform has completely changed the course of my life.
I had Twitter for a while, but I didn’t really use it, and I didn't know it was so cool. One day, on September 25, when the GPT-4 update was released, I accidentally discovered this entire tech community. Then I found Levelsio, started seeing what he does and who he follows.
It was my first contact with indie makers, and my world turned 180 degrees because I used to think that all companies were VC-funded. And now I see that there are bootstrapped companies, wow. From that day on, I started being active daily, trying to grow in this tech field and connect with as many makers as possible.
