Books and stuff for the two classes I have today, and a shot of a very messy corner of my desk.

I've also made a new hashtag #catastrophicdays which I'm gonna use for all my original pictoral posts so I don't lose them myself.

"I went away in my head, into a book. That was where I went whenever real life was too hard or too inflexible."

Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Online dark academia

includes cups of black coffee that you can't seem to stop drinking (the feeling is exhaustion doesn't go away ), overflowing creativity for anything except the school work you should be doing, hands with strains of 'red ink' that won't wash away no matter how hard you try, and the obligatory spiral into madness as you're trapped inside your home.

I've started learning Japanese properly now. Today I learnt the vowels, their pronounciation and how to write them. I'm a little perfectionist so as you can see I've practiced over and over how to write. In the coming days I'll do more when I have time.

I also do not have an access to graph sheet notebooks at the moment, which is why I have to practice in this ruled notebook. But I've learnt languages in blank sheets before so I don't think it's going to be a problem.

I'll keep updating on my progress once in a while.

Studying Marlowe

We are way into our syllabus, and the professors are movie fast. Sometimes I feel like I am lagging behind, so I need to catch up real quick. I am going to make bujo notes real soon, and I might post it.

My academic books!

Here are all the books I have bought for my college. Some are a second hand and some aren't. Personally, I prefer old books over new ones, because not only do they cost less but also I get the annotations of the previous owner for free! Sustainability is fun.
