finish my masters thesis (read all 2 entries…)
Thank God... 4 years ago

Yes, it’s finally finished. Don’t ask me to read it for a few, um, months.



read every book I own
Maybe I should get rid of this one... 4 years ago

This is one of those unreasonable goals, though I do think it inspires a positive mindset. I don’t think I’ll ever actually read all of the books I possess, and maybe I shouldn’t even aspire to. A sure sign that someone isn’t a book person is that they come into your house and say, “Wow, have you actually read all of these?!?”



Visit Italy
I'm going to Trieste! 4 years ago
