these quotes 🤌🏻🥺

  “You are the light to my dark. Without you, I’m lost.” “I’d do anything for you. No matter how twisted or impossible.” “Consider it a lesson for the future. Pretty words and pretty faces don’t equal pretty souls.” **obsessed with this book**
  “What I learned in this tragedy was the eternal lesson of good people going bad.”                                      ―  Steven Ramirez

Lost in thoughts

LOST IN THOUGHTS In class, my mind begins to roam, Away from books and thoughts of home. My mind wanders to far-off lands,  While my textbook rests in my idle hands. I look out the window, at the sky so blue, Thinking of dreams I want to pursue. The moment I wake, I'm filled with dread, Realizing I missed what the teacher had just said. I promise myself to listen, to do my best, No more daydreams, I'll pass the test. By that moment, I understand the connection, Paying attention is the only path to my direction.

Update-2: My reading track

I completely forgot to update here. Haha. Ok, I completed the PJO series. The 6th book- Chalice of the gods got released while I was reading the 5th book. That made me super excited. Then, I read it. It was nice. The 7th book - Wrath of triple goddess will be released by next year September. Currently, I'm reading The Lost Hero and Angels and Demons. I read my previous blog which was published like 5 months ago and found it really cringe. Anyways, I didn't follow it haha.

An update: My reading track

So, I wrote a blog like by the end of July, and it's currently 10th of September, a very long gap, indeed! Anyways, I completed the 1st book of PJO, a fiction book (lol, life has better plans for me i guess), and I'm looking forward to complete the entire series by the end of November maybe. I couldn't continue reading cause' my term exams are on the way like I have 10 more days and it's kinda difficult to stick with 9th grade. I didn't expect stuff like this, but everything is moving very fast. I thought of completing non-fiction but that was not my cup of tea. But, anyways, I'll complete them too and will surely write a blog about it once I've completed them.

What's my new idea?

What's my new idea?       I started reading non-fiction recently, and I find it difficult to remember every single thing in the book. Today, when I was randomly scrolling through YouTube, I suddenly saw a video of Matt D'Avella in which he explained very clearly about how he learned a system for remembering everything. I learned a system of remembering everything            And this is for my future reference, maybe. The main algorithm of this video is 'Take notes, Revise, Categorize and file' But what I thought was that instead of categorizing and filing the flash cards, I could just simply sit and write a blog, which is my favourite hobby (feeling proud of my idea, lol). Well, I am currently reading (in non-fiction) Eat that Frog! by Brian Tracy, and my next book would be Chanakya in the Classroom, of which I already completed a part last year. And I'm thinking of continuing my old habit of maintaining my track on Go...
