“Now it is a strange thing, but things that are good to have and days that are good to spend are soon told about, and not much to listen to; while things that are uncomfortable, palpitating, and even gruesome, may make a good tale, and take a deal of telling anyway.”

Truly the highlight of Christmas break, Tolkien’s prose and storytelling is… familiar. It tells me that everyone else just copies his style!

The only thing that made me smile!

Ahh, what a refresher from Comi agua para Chocolate! I need to get myself more kids’ books in Spanish because that’s where it’s at!

Spanish is all-consuming.

Guess what I asked for Christmasssss 😏😏

So, don’t sign yourself up for IB HL Spanish B. I vehemently want to understand this book, but, oh my heavens, it is challenging. I have to break down this book sentence by sentence to extract any meaning from it whatsoever. This, I feel, fosters a negative relationship between the reader and the book, and also fails to advance my Spanish journey as effectively. Anywho, if I go missing, it’s because of this book.

Entirely in Spanish…. Wish me luck 😥🙏

Inspiring!

For school 🤮🤮🤮

Very introspective. Miss you, Emily.
