Simone De Beauvoir, Diary Of A Philosophy Student: Vol. I, 1926-27

I have peace and almost joy, because books, chats, and the sweetness of the air are so dear to me.

I've Never Been Somewhere I Belonged, But There Are Places Where I Think I Could Be Happy. Like San Francisco.

I've never been somewhere I belonged, but there are places where I think I could be happy. Like San Francisco. Well, do art museums count? Because I feel like I belong in them.

- Heather Demetrios, I'll Meet You There

[8/100] days of productivity

worked on some articles for my Substack, made a lot of progress with Babysitter by Joyce Carol Oates (this book is...devastating and kinda traumatic), did house chores, and went for a walk.

[2/100] days of productivity

Brushing up my French skills with this book by Michèle Thomasson. It is a little collection of his journal entries. I think I can manage, little by little. Low commitment, but effective.

[16/100] days of productivity

Finally decided to tackle reading something by Fernando Pessoa. I don't know why but his most popular one, The Book of Disquiet, intimidates me so much, so I decided to start with his poetry. So far so good. Exquisite, I should say!

[14/100] days of productivity

I'm making progress with my process of copying my most valuable screenshots in my commonplace journal. Anything like quotes, interesting facts, useful websites, articles and so on.

I've started transcribing things from Sept. 2023 a couple of days ago, and now I just finished the ones from Oct. 2024!

This is such a therapeutic activity. I love it.

btw the majority of your life will be lived as a adult. yeah i don't make the rules. go have fun in your 40s or 70s or whatever. no one expects you to accomplish everything at 17 or 27. you've got time and in the meantime get some life experience, it will pay off
