herdrafts These are the books that arrived in my September bookmail: Emily Dickinson collected poems and Public Library by Ali Smith. In the past few weeks as I run out of physical books, and I didn’t feel like reading any ebooks, I’ve been rereading the secret history, updating its review, and reading an interesting cultural-fiction about family life and traditions from a small town in Taiwan called A Thousand Moons on a Thousand Rivers by Li-Hung Hsiao. It does helped me to get out from a sudden reading slump.

Monday mornings with coffee at the ready and work to get done. I hope your weeks are well-caffeinated if nothing else, and that you find some time to take for just you.

Je suis chez moi. Been staying home most days and only going out when I really need to.  I had brunch in bed, did my private tutoring lesson in the comfort of my room using video chat (thank you technology) and still in the progress of rearranging my room. I also painted my phone case with nail polish out of boredom… turned out nice tho.

today is a beautiful day. the roads are quieter than usual so I could hear the birds chirping from outside.
