It has been a long week, a disappointing series of days. Yet... there is more incoming. Staying on to see the storm through.

My literature professor agreed to teach the class ''white nights'' per my request.
I am far more than pleased.
Stay yourself, stay curious
should i reread the secret history, the phantom of the opera, finish the trial by kafka, start white nights by dostoevsky, or start a hungarian book that i've been wanting to read for years? life is so so hard
