I've been stress-induced-focused these past days, barely got the time to be active here. Anyways, april cometh🌻

Also, I got a membership for my local library because ugh, my college library is crowded all the time?! There's only a few people here and that makes it so much more better.

These colored plants look pyaara🤌🥹

I love bakeries.

My college library's hamartia is it closes at 5pm. Bruh, I only get in the zone by then😭😭

@nayani-reads omg thank you😭😭 but I'm not any better at math than most people. Just trying to do what I can. And once you figure out some problem, the dopamine high is real. But so is the frustration when a problem evades you🫠

Pushing to get as many focused hours of study as possible. Had Tiramisu for the first time and it's officially my favorite dessert now😭

My update right on the mid of february🧌

So I only recently finished Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 and the number of tragic deaths is too much. YT understood the assignment and recommended me this playlist😞👍

This whole stack of Murakami at the book fair🤤😳

Trying to manage literary theory and math as well. Chaotic academia🎗

Math tells us the saddest love stories

"Parallel lines were never meant to meet"

"Tangent lines only meet once and grow apart forever"

"Asymptotes get closer and closer but will never be together "

My brain can't do math unless I do it messy.

Sometimes, you just need to sit on metro stations and watch the time passing by.

It's bone-chilling cold, yet people manage to attend 8'o clock classes in the morning😭

Drilling math problems. Plus this really cool article that talks about architectural vocabulary used for describing social connections.

The highlight of the week had to be a Murakami novel. Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage. I do understand people's criticism of Murakami regarding character development but the rhythm and the depth of loss and grief that Murakami covers along with other Japanese writers like Banana Yoshimoto is unparalleled.

Plus, this music piece by Lizst😭

“Whenever she was asked to play something, this piece was the one she most often chose. ‘Le mal du pays.’ The groundless sadness called forth in a person’s heart by a pastoral landscape. Homesickness. Melancholy”

Hiiii y'all!!! 😶‍🌫️

Yes, I'm 10 days late but welcome to 2024🪇

So this year, I want to focus on math a whole lot more (cause I'm not the best at it shhhh🤫). So yes, I wanna overcome that and appreciate the beauty of math in general.

And this is one of my long abandoned embroidery project🧶. Is there anyone else whose blues seem to get better by doing something craftsy by hands?

The zen of engaged hands🪡

Belated Merry Christmas Kinsfolk🫎🥂

I don't understand why my uni had to schedule an exam the very next day of Christmas😭. My Christmas was spent reading women's literature from poetry of Sylvia Plath to Alice Walker's The Color Purple

Plus, why did I not come across Eunice de Souza before? I absolutely love her poetry.

Semester exams are only a week away omg😵‍💫

One thing I love about studying literature is how it roots itself in so many cultural artifacts that you would never have known about otherwise. Take the classical piece 'War Requiem' that I only came to know of while reading Wilfred Owen's war poem 'Strange Meeting.'

Finished reading The Art of Racing in the Rain last night, and this is by far the best book of 2023 for me. I love it so so much, I miss Enzo, I root for Denny. God, how much I love this book🤌💗💗

And we've got our December already🧣

The magic of small town skies🪅

Last week, I had such a crazy schedule; doing my assignment in trains, studying and joining meetings in the spare minutes between my absolutely packed days.

Coffee, Skies and the Rushing time.

Current Read 📖: The Art of Racing in the Rain🐕
