Hi geminispace.
So yesterday, I collected my certificates etc from the school after my chemistry practical exam (which surprisingly went good) and went straight to Starmark for some book shopping cause we don't ever know when they'll announce lockdown here again. I took my sister too to negotiate and just be someone I can talk to. To be honest, it felt liberating. I don't really "shop" but sure little money to spend doesn't do harm. That's what I learnt. I think I won't mind shopping. I got Siddhartha by Hesse, a biography of Steve Jobs and collected works of Khalil Gibran. Very painfully, I had to let go of Sapiens. ;-;
I totally love Gibran, sample this:
"And think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course."
I'm suffering from common cold or so I think. Lots of headache and that's horrible cause I can't really do anything and it's such a waste of time. Besides, my throat hurts and I was running a temperature yesterday. I took meds alright but I think I'll go to the doctor once again.
I went down a little book hunting spree on the web and got ~30 books (!) mostly from Naval's bookshelf. I'm looking forward to "The art of manipulation" but ah, this shrewd headache. Fuck.
Oh, and I also got Ready Player Two which as you may know is a sequel to Ready Player One, one of my favourite nerd books.
I'm aware I haven't been logging much but I'm just frivolous and I wanna change but I can't.
Bye.
