i received these three clarice lispector books today! i'm so happy and ready to read her works. i already had other three.

pretty amazing, isn't it? the covers are crazy. i'm gonna start with the second one, água viva - my friend told me so.

apart from that, the days have been a little bit harder, and i can't wait for traveling. i need to get away.

but back to the books: i think i'm gonna really start a booktube. for that, i need to get over my shyness. i might not do it, i always leave projects halfway or 'noneway'.

hope everyone is having an amazing day. take care. 🤍🌧

I was so happy the november depression didn’t hit me at all this year

and then

the end of december comes around and brings the trinity of doom: melancholy, anxiety and existential dread

my hero right here.

The only man ever

I'm an orbit, a black hole Traveling through merits Collect all the meteors you can Bring me the stars, the moon Crave for the notes to play Crave for the credits to appear For my name to appear How hard will it be, as if I were only a math algorithm Find me out [hostil as it can be Listen to light speed on notes Nobody will ever need me more than the smell of air in my lungs, when it all ends. Hope it takes longer [than I expect Care of myself take me away like a stoic, the present is never be obstacle, only the infinite that holds me [like a daughter Love me, Universe take my words, e bring me chances so, I can hope to find you [within me.
