0815 Reading and finally did some work
Yesterday I finally finished reading The Psychology of Money. It made me feel at ease.
I also fixed my Kindle library by deleting the books I no longer want to read.
And here’s an article about what not to read — You Don’t Have Time to Read Books That Won’t Change Your Life.
↪️ Worked on renaming my blogs and polishing the titles until 09:30
🖋️ 10:00 Wrote a blog in Chinese about running
👩💼 10:30 Edited some photos using Photoshop
💭 I realized that the computer we are using at home now is not good enough for me.
🤑 So I think I want to buy an iMac or Mac mini before my girlfriend’s graduation, when I can use her student discount to get my new computer at a lower price.
💭 13:10 It was too cold; how could 24 degrees Celsius be so cold?
🔍 14:10 Did some research on what I should read on Kindle and found a recommendation list from Amazon.
💬 Through talking with Claude (and deleting Japanese books I can read in Japanese myself, as well as books written by Chinese male authors), I decided to read 1984 first on my Kindle.
😸 Coincidentally, I had just started reading it yesterday.
📖 16:05 Finished reading The Attention Merchants Chapter 2
👩💼 16:30 Made a flyer draft using Illustrator
I remember that when I was a high school student, I wrote my goal as becoming a linguist.
So maybe I should read some books about linguistics.
What books would recommend for a layman to read about linguistics (not textbooks)?
🏄♀️ Surfed until the end of the workday this week.
