winter break is almost here and i want to mark down (officially) what my ambitions are over the two weeks. i think its crazy we dont get the week before christmas off but hey…. thats life *_*
ps. not even sure if i’ll get to do these things since im working like almost everyday from noon to close but i’ll try and make the most of it!
during winter break, i wanna play games again!!!!!! i wanna play tetris and start to play chess again. it looks super cool and im trying to train my mind to be more active. every time i get off work, i get on instagram and watch reels… my brain is rotting. i dont wanna live this life anymore….
im slowly trying to get off my main social media platform (twitter) and switch to something better like dreamwidth. i talk to the void and my one follower (hi quotidians) and do whateverrrr i want. maybe i’ll pick up html learning again but hey, nothing is guaranteed. i’ll spend time with my family and try and read more
yeah thats all i have. nothing too ambitious for a two week break but also nothing boring. happy holidays!

Date: 2023-12-21 11:25 pm (UTC)apologies for my delayed response.. the stranger! i read that one for the first time earlier this year. the last part of the book particularly stands out to me-- you'll have to tell me what you think of it when you're finished. lots of older books are unfortunately misogynistic, so much so to the point where i'm even surprised when there's none.
my first chess game ended in a draw, mainly because i got impatient and ended up trying to rush through it, and also cos i barely knew how to move the different pieces. i'm going to find a video tutorial and figure that out first and then try again. bit devastated at the idea of having to take my time and think for once.
kindest regards,
quotidians

Date: 2023-12-22 12:59 am (UTC)i appreciate your response regardless of time. i am super ecstatic you picked up chess and got a draw atleast. its not a loss so it’s a win-win situation imo!
i understand the frustration of having to think but as an overthinker myself, i love figuring out all of the moves me and the other player might make. actually earlier today, i blundered and made a piece move on accident and the bot said "what are you trying to do here?" and i laughed so hard. i made no sense with moving my piece that had nothing to do with developing/attacking but hey! isn’t being unpredictable good?
i’ll let you know how my reading journey goes! i’m more of a gamer so it might be a month or a year until you get some sort of reading log from me… until then, farewell!
yours truly,
