Little Stories 256 : About Walking Last Week (and book search, of course)

 Last week I decided to watch Barbie, after spending many days working in front of the computer. I think I deserve a rest, so I got ready, went out early in the morning in the hard rain, and took the Grab to IOI. On the way to IOI, suddenly my sister texted me, asking what I was doing (on that random morning, on a weekday) and I told her that I was on my way to watch Barbie. At that exact moment,...

Books: Same Topic As Always (but August update)

The window to Scribd's major library opens again (probably for 2 weeks, like usual). So I'm starting up the Scribd marathon again. The last time I listened to any good books was around 2 weeks ago (apparently, it is even less than that, around 10 days). But then I also managed to score 2 audiobooks from Kindle audible trials so that's what I've been listening to when I walk to pick up Sofi...

Little Thing 269 : The Sheep-Shepherd Analogy

 Have you heard about the analogy between the shepherd, the flock of sheep, the sheepdog, and the wolf?The shepherd is the caregiver, the guide, the ruler, and the observant who can see the whole picture, their task is to train the dog, tend the sheep, and they are responsible for everything that happens; to the sheepdog and the sheep. They need to provide a safe place to live in, and basic necessities...

Little Stories 255 : A Week Summed Up

This week felt different.How different? This part, I'm not exactly sure. I'm in the process of deciphering the current state of my mind. Maybe I was too occupied with catching up along with a sudden massive amount of work that I had. Perhaps it was due to Sofi's week in trial daycare, I had more time to do my own stuff. Maybe because of the extra socializing that went on throughout the week, while...

Review : 1.5 year later - Kindle 10th Gen

Remember that I bought this Kindle 10th gen in Dec 2021?You can't no longer buy Kindle 10th gen from Kindle Malaysia but they now offer this new basic Kindle 11th gen (2022) version instead or Kindle Paperwhite 5 (2021) (11th Gen). You can probably buy cheaper ones from other shops (but I can't say, I bought mine from Kindle Malaysia because they were trustworthy and their support team...

Little Stories 254 : Quick Breakfast at Broom

I don't have anything worth your time to tell about this post, it is just a post about a beautiful cafe, beautiful lines of pastries, a divine frothy dairy-free matcha latte, and a nice vibe. A fancy place for a plain person (like me, I do feel out of place). I was an hour early for the Moss Fest event, so we decided to have breakfast at Broom Artisan Bakery just right next to AweGallery. As...

Books: 10 years of Book-Consumption Challenge

First of all, I don't want to explain my obsession towards written words, second, I want to embrace my nerdiness and accept that I am 'that' kind of book nerd: that talks about books and writers, that watches Booktube and follow booktubers, that buys books on top of more unread books, that always has a plan B secret books on every single device that I own, that loves to walk in bookstores and library,...

Random : Books Lately, Converting to Threads, and Random Updates

What's old, what's new:The day Elon decided to change Twttr's logo to 'X', I deactivated my Twttr account and opened a Threads account. I don't think he cares about his users, so it doesn't matter. I just don't want him to win. He is the epitome of toxic masculinity.I got an invite to Moss Fest by Mossery last weekend. I'm both honored and excited, but I'm planning to write about the whole event...
