Not a Newsletter: Oct20 Edition

3 mins read

The highlight-est moment of the month is celebrating the second wedding anniversary with Fafa with a picnic (making it two picnics in the same month) at the nearby park. The graze box from L&P was delicious and the sun was glorious.

I also sat for the CPA exam (result out in December – what an anti-climax) and fell sick twice due to work stress. One would think WFH would be more chill, but not for me. Thankfully, the work direction is changing from next month onward. I am hoping with it I will be able to manage the workload and settle with my grove.

Meanwhile, Google Photos reminded me that last October I was in Europe at the beginning and Jakarta at the tail end of the month. It was also the last time I went back home.

The full moon in Aries, the one that I woke up to merely minutes ago, is nudging me to write on a new blog. Thing is I already have a blog. I have a blog, a grimoire, three journals, two diaries and four Instagram accounts. I don’t need another blog.

But the nudge is strong.

Love and Found

📚 According to Goodreads, I managed to read 7 books this October, but still 3 books are behind schedule if I want to achieve my reading goal for the year. I read and reviewed The Perfect World of Miwako Sumida, People from My Neighbourhood, and Kind of Hindu here. I also want to start rereading some books on my bookshelf that I either half-read or forgot that I have read before. Next month’s pick is Tokyo Totem. It’s a book about the city written from different perspectives.

📺 I highly recommend a Covid anthology Tamil movie called Putham Puthu Kadhal. I also enjoyed To The Lake (very on-trend with what’s happening in the world), The Alienist and Truth Be Told.

📹 Found Flix’s Paranormal Activity 1-6 review was so good I watched it thrice. Also, the sometimes-cringy theNewBee.
