While i have shared a lot of my bug bounty success story with you all, let me share story of my failures!
You know, When i was starting bug bounty hunting, I was unable to report a valid vulnerability for 6 month straight! Every report that i submitted got marked as informative, not applicable and duplicate! At that time, i was very demotivated, stressed and depressed. I was thinking, "Maybe bug bounty is not my thing" but suddenly, I started questioning myself:
1. Didn't i wanted to learn cyber security because it is my passion?
2. Am i only focusing on reporting vulnerabilities instead of improving my skills?
By asking these questions, I understand one thing: I need to switch my focus on learning, improving and hacking instead of getting demotivated because i was not getting any rewards! And eventually, I was able to get that first vulnerability and now i can easily say that i am the better version of myself than before!

Day 5 - Done! 😊
it was all about the XXE vulnerability in web apps. It was super fun! If you want to dive deeper into this vuln, I recommend checking out the XXE room on TryHackMe, as well as resources like PortSwigger and PwnFunction's YouTube video [vid ].
I skipped Day 4 and Day 6 because my internet was like shit, but hopefully, I’ll catch up tomorrow!

You ever have one of those moments where you just stop and think, "Wow, how did I not know this?" 😂
Well, today I realized something obvious: TOR isn’t just name—it’s actually an abbreviation for "The Onion Router!" 🤯 All this time, I thought it was just a catchy title. Silly me, right?
And to make things even better,i barely remember what WiFi stands for... 🤔 Guess I need to dig into that next.

K-391 & Alan Walker & Ahrix
Back in high school, I was totally hooked on EDM. 🎧🔥 I couldn’t get enough of artists like Alan Walker, Martin Garrix, Marshmello, Avicii, and more.
I was that guy who spammed our Telegram group with songs from these legends. 😅 My classmates had no escape—EDM vibes were everywhere.after two years, and guess what? I just stumbled upon that same group and all the songs I shared back then
Listening to them now, it feels so fresh— It’s such a vibe to remember about the good old days before AASTU 😂. Nostalgia hits differently when it comes with beats, drops, and memories! 🕺
and this song is one of'em .
What’s your throwback from high school? wanna drop it in the comment section ?
