📚 Book 17 of 2024 - Finished: A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas (⭐4/5)
Finished last night. Book 3 of the ACOTAR series and I think this is my favorite book of the series so far.

Days 27 and 28 of WeblogPoMo2024
Almost at the finish line…
- CampSnap Camera: my favorite no frills, screen free digital camera that encourages me to stay in the moment.
- The Sound of my Voice: my thoughts on Micro.blog’s new audio narration feature. Contemplating whether or not to use it.
Days 26 of WeblogPoMo2024
A little less than a week left of this month’s challenge and still (kind of) going strong. Excited to change things up a bit in June for the JUnited: A Blog Love Letter challenge. Looking forward to discovering new blogs that people in the community also enjoy. Stay tuned!
Days 24 and 25 of WeblogPoMo2024
- Week Notes 006 - this week was a heavy week so this is a short one.
- Overthinking my superpower - in my need to balance my heavy posts the past few days, I needed to write something lighthearted to take my mind off things. What would your superpower be?
Days 22 and 23 of WeblogPoMo2024
Just catching up:
- On Grief and Loss - My thoughts on how growing older is just a journey of learning to let go while still holding on.
- I don’t want to talk about myself - This is me writing about myself while talking about not wanting to talk about myself.
📚 Book 16 of 2024 - Finished: The Book of Lost Names by Kristin Harmel (⭐5/5)
Thoughts: This was a really hard book to put down. If you’re into historical fiction around WWII about family, sacrifice, betrayal and lost love, then this could be a great read for you.

Day 21 of WeblogPoMo2024
I planned to write something different today, but I needed to give myself a pep talk. Listing out a few quotes to help get me by in the meantime.
Day 20 of WeblogPoMo2024
I hit my 365 days streak of Duolingo today! I absolutely failed learning Chinese but I think I’m doing pretty well increasing my Spanish fluency. Started off around 30% fluency and I’d like to think I’m at 45% when it comes to reading Spanish now. It’s something, at least!
🛒 Costco trips always feels like an all day event and I am so exhausted afterwards. Today we ended up spending 1.5hrs in there and walking 3 miles back and forth the different aisles (yes, I tracked it). Alas, I still did not get my long awaited Roomba. One day, it will be mine… just not today.
