april recap
How the fuck is it May already? It feels like the year just started, and now we're practically halfway to Halloween.
April was fun! Following a severe migraine attack, I intended to take just a day or two off but ended up taking a two week break to dedicate some time to continue work on my miniature projects. I had begun crafting a miniature record store last year but hadn't found much time to continue. During my break, I completed the exterior, most of the furniture, and even installed some functioning doors. Additionally, I cut, folded, and glued over 1200 tiny records. I'm still not done but we're getting closer! More on that soon!
In my first week at work, I logged over 60 billable hours and felt so productive that I ended up completing a bunch of projects around the flat. I put up some peel-and-stick tiles in the kitchen, installed floating shelves in the living room, and even organized my basement compartment. Does anyone else find they manage to squeeze in even more tasks when they're super busy?
some other things
- watched a lot of tv shows this month while working on my miniatures. after finishing a rewatch of "z nation," i started "izombie" and absolutely loved it.
- i started exploring 'self-help' books and quickly realised they're not really my thing. maybe i just haven't stumbled upon the right ones yet. know any i might like? tell me!
- finished april's daily drawings. it's been fun but i'm getting bored with my illustration style. also, finding new subjects to draw can be tough, especially when i do the same thing over a couple of days.
- tried to listen to the new taylor swift album but couldn't get past track seven or so.
- checked out a new vegan café that opened in my grätzl [neighbourhood] with patrick.
- notable books of the month: kim jiyoung, born 1982 by cho nam-joo and funny you should ask by elissa sussman.
