Yay, the rebirth is near. It's a dive down for now though...
Big decision this month: We've finally gone separate ways with my full-time job place. It feels like a weight off my shoulders, even though it's a bit terrifying. This time around, I’m confident it's the right move. My last stint abroad without a steady income didn’t go well, but this time feels different. It somehow feels... confident?
I don't know how it works, but I'm sure that it is a Serbia effect. Also, I have the most supportive friends and family, you can't convince me otherwise.
And how fitting to get a rebirth month on my birthday month? Look at what I did with a little bit of help from my lovely friend Julie to get some "psychiatrist effect".
And so this time the update would be normal-sized. Good times!
Song - Hind's Hall by Macklemore
Macklemore delivered a masterpiece with this one. Lyrically on point, musically stunning, and a bold statement on the Free Palestine movement. Massive respect for him for speaking up.
Book - Yellowface by R.F. Kuang
This satire on the publishing industry hit all the right spots. It’s biting, smart, and thought-provoking, dealing with race and privilege in ways you don’t see often in mainstream fiction.
TV Show - Fallout
A gritty, dystopian show that brings the post-apocalyptic world to life. The characters and tension kept me on edge the whole time.
Documentary - Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie
This was a tearjerker. Michael J. Fox is an icon, and seeing his resilience in the face of Parkinson’s disease was both heartbreaking and inspiring.
May was about taking control and stepping into the unknown. Letting go of security can be frightening, but sometimes it’s the only way to find freedom.
Let's hope I'm on the right path.
