thursday. it’s sunny. NRW, Germany

i haven’t been out to the city but i did go for a jog this morning and yeah, there weren’t as many cars as usual, i think the vehicle i saw the most were buses. it’s quite like a dead town. guess it’s good. #stayhome 

READ

the art of journaling. a very very comprehensive article and i pretty much just skipped to the sections that are most relevant to me. one of my New Year resolutions is to journal every day…trolololol fail. i have still yet to find the most suitable method for me…alas, i couldn’t even decide between having a digital journal or a physical one. ahh, possibilities are endless!

the history of irrational numbers because last Saturday was Pi Day. pi is an irrational number. 

this is by far the best text written on “untranslatable emotions” i’ve ever read. probably cos it highlights an actual use for it

there’s a PDF and i was excited to see there is a Malay section which only contains one word. oh wells. hahahahahaha. it’s still nice. but the PDF is more like a collection of words that don’t have English equivalents lol

WATCHED

The Circle USA on Netflix. how to make friends while being under self-quarantine. oh. and American dramassssss. hahahahahah. hilarious.

 

WILL BE WATCHING

been binge-watching this every evening with the Streberin. i wonder what we will do when we’re done with the series….

Halt and Catch Fire on Amazon Prime. an underrated TV Series which talks about programmers and geeks and nerds set in the 80s. it ended up on many “Best of the Decade” lists. mainly discovered it because i had a crush on Mackenzie Davis

Sunday. Aachen. it’s rainy again but it was quite sunny a few days ago

the Christmas break started and i was in my room for more than 40 hours and i thought today was still Saturday. silly me. started watching Halt And Catch Fire with class genius and made a lot of pancakes and cooked noodles too. my new place is cosy. feeling slightly under pressure because there are a lot to be done this holiday season. wish me luck. but somehow im still reading random things rather than doing productive work. smh.

someone found some female remains at a supposedly male-only Geek mountain. what kind of stupid rule is that. people used to be so weird and dumb

the strange life and death of a genius programmer. stumbled upon a few articles about blockchain technology recently but was too tired or energyless to document it here but here is one.

here is another one about a cryptocurrency scam thing where the founder of the company allegedly faked his own death.

and now people want to exhume his body. hmmmmmmmmmm
