A new year is upon us, and a new week as well. Here's how things went!
🎉 Happy New Year y’all! I spent time with family and friends, we ate lasagna and meat and pear cake and a bunch of other food. We played some Uno and Mexican Train, we did a couple rounds of Ultimate Chicken Horse on my Switch, had a campfire outside and broke a piñata!
🏠 I went back to work on Monday, but I did home office! I pretty much got no calls all day so I am glad I get to save up some vacation days for pretty much free! I went to the office on Thursday and Friday, after having New Year’s Day off.
💭 I think having to write week notes on Saturday takes some time away that could be spent on more personal or well developed articles for the blog, at the same time, I know I could write them if I wanted. Gotta keep up with my goals!
💪 Speaking of, I got a gym subscription now. I will start on Monday! I knooow, I knoooow, I probably could do excercise at home, but I just don’t keep it up, not sure why. Everyday I get back from work and sit on a computer until dinner or watch shorts on YouTube, I realized I could just go to the gym instead and be back home by dinner so it’s the same thing but at least I do something, so I will try that out. Leave your tips in the comments!
⏳ How does time go so fast? I’ve been working for a year now, and there was a time where University couldn’t go any slower, and where it seemed internships were eternal, and now I’ve been working for a year and I still feel like a noob. The pay is good though, so I’m happy.
Reading
I completed…
Jujutsu Kaisen. Wow that was quite the trip, I think this story will be absolutely crazy once the 3rd—and probably 4th—season of the anime comes out, I really felt like the pacing and text-filled pages especially during the final 20 or so chapters were kind of annoying, the action in my head was great but the art was really kind of sloppy, I did like the end though, and I loved these characters.
I read up to…
Chapter 195 of Sakamoto Days. JJK might be what’s cool in anime at the moment, but I think this is truly the best action in Manga form I’ve seen. It follows the rule of cool to the letter and gets away with it everytime. These past few chapters have been great! I caught up now.
Chapter 5 of The Murder on The Links by Agatha Christie. I’m reading this one with @isa in both physical and digital form. It is the second Poirot novel and I am liking the mystery so far! Everyone is sus.
Chapter 1 of Abaddon’s Gate by James S.A. Corey. The 3rd book of the Expanse series started great, as its usual at this point. I am also reading this in both physical and digital, but also in English and Spanish! it’s a pretty good translation, even though it’s Spanish from Spain and not Latino and some slang is weird to read for me. On a sidenote I love the Serif font and I kind of want to install it on my Kobo.
Gaming
I played…
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade and got to chapter 24, the story is going places! And I am really liking some of the new character classes I’ve found, it’s such a great game.
Balatro for a single run, and I died in the 7th ante. It was going well but I felt very limited with the jokers I had and I got rid of one that I shouldn’t have, which led to my demise.
