What I'm up to
last updated
Spending almost the entire summer by the sea, woo!

Enjoying the first summer vacation from university. Don’t want to hear a word of mathematics for a couple months. Please. Want to take some of the time to listen to music, watch movies and catch up on games. I survived first year of university, I “earned” it.
Though there is summer practise and (non-wage) work ahead, and I am anxious of whether I can meet all the deadlines.
Reading avidly but not that actively. In other words, it takes a lot of effort to start but then I can go through half a book in a day.
Re-started guitar practise, attempt 3. Got a budget acoustic guitar to use while away from home to go with it. That no amp is required makes it a joy to use. So far barely began, trying to add some theoretical knowledge instead of just memorising a bunch of chords.
Learning German since July 18, 2025! Picked it because I like the way it sounds the most, even if it’s not as practical as French or Chinese. If you don’t see frequent (preferably daily) updates, remind me.
Thinking of beginning the search for a first proper job, however volunteering at my university fills the niche for now.
Trying to cut down on time wasted on devices since December 2024. So far failing, but I didn’t hear no bell. Add a mark for every “now” update this notice has survived: III
As of July 2025, I have cut down my average phone screen time to 30 minutes. Consistent over almost a month, achieved mainly via deletion of mobile browser. However, my average desktop screen time is 12 hours right now, and I can’t say all of it is positive. I installed some extensions to help with that in the near future, but I’d call chatting on Discord and tinkering with side projects biggest time stealers, will need to figure something out in that regard.
