Fruits And English Grammar

Got a haircut—basically got rid of my long hair to start fresh after the traumatizing high school results.

All things aside, I hit the jackpot today. I found my digital camera, along with my dad's old geography, biology, and economics books, plus a bunch of maps, diaries, manuals, and language learning guides from Japan. He was going to throw everything away, so I picked out the stuff I want to keep—the rest will be discarded.

I'm getting very stressed these days because my high school finals results will be declared soon. I know I didn't do well, so I just hope I pass and achieve the required percentage to get into universities. My first entrance exam didn't go well either. I plan to post everything I do — for example, if I finish one or two topics, I'll post about it. Maybe this will satisfy my brain and give it enough dopamine so that I don't procrastinate. Tommorow, I plan to complete Set Theory, Statistics, Sequences and Series, Permutations and Combinations, and maybe Linear Equations as well if I have some time left.

Analyzing past papers to get a sense of what to expect in the entrance exam amid the tensions throughout the nation.

Enough with my depressing thoughts. I decided to make myself a five-ingredient sandwich, and now I'm going to study English. (Maybe studying will distract me from all the pessimistic thoughts and loneliness.)

This decorative piece made of brass, crafted so beautifully with Indian craftsmanship, has been more of a sacred object than just a decoration. My mom always worships it on the day of Mahalakshmi Puja.

Thank you so much!!!! I've been so nervous to write again, but this boosted my confidence.

Thank you again! It's such an honor to think that Ovid might have appreciated it.

(I've been smiling so wide my cheeks have started to hurt. I even told my mom about it—this made my day!)

Hello! I'm sorry to bother you with this, but would you mind reading this? I wrote it two years ago and I’ve been thinking about returning to poetry. No pressure at all—you can ignore this if you're busy. I just wanted to ask you because you seem to know a lot about the Greeks.

Have a good day! 🩵

It's not a bother! I really enjoyed reading this. It felt so vocal, like oral poetry, which is of course very fitting for the ancients. You did an excellent job! Ovid would be proud. And thank you for trusting me with it.
