    That I finished and enjoyed for myself? Cirque du Freak by Darren Shan. I still like the series, I had at the time the first book of HP and wasnt interested and there where no movies if I remember correctly. Then I devoured darren shan’s books, HP and the rest is history





  • I hate my job and I feel unapreciated in it, BUT it doesnt have that many work hours, perhaps 30% of the time I have work, so I am learning how to become a developer, so I can change it. I am also starting to workout a bit more each day. So I think I am moving forward, from alot of time of staying the same.





    • Game: Zelda Ocarina of Time. My first true game that I had and enjoyed as a child, I didnt even know the language and I vividly remember using a dictionary and translating the game while playing.
    • Book: One Piece Manga, yes its not a book, but reading everything from zero to current would be an amazing journey, one that I enjoy watching book-tubers discover One Piece and devour it is great. If I had to reread a book perhaps Project Hail Mary, I didnt know anything about the book, I just liked the authors previous work and picked this one up and stayed all night reading the book, it was one of those amazing moments when reading.
    • TV show: Futurama, incredibly funny and imagining discovering it new again would feel awesome. -Movie: I dont really have *A favorite movie, more of the experience and feeling I had while watching a movie. But perhaps the Batman trilogy

    I bought my mother a laptop and it came preinstalled with a bunch of games and software that it threw me off, like wtf I dont want or need this what happened, I had a mac at the time and felt limited to what it can or cant do. So last year I built myself a pc and before installing windows I was already looking at steam decks and noted that it seems games runs quite well, so I went with Mint, and there where some features that lacked but discovered I could modify on my on and it just works! I do have to admin that it was a bit different in my work life, since do graphic design, but its been interesting switching over to inkscape and gimp.



  • I am, and I also agree that there is a huge nostalgia factor in me continuing to read the story. The issue is that just the latest couple of chapters, the story started to feel like the Part 1 and 2. But imho its still hast a weak story. Hopefully the story develops further. But I think it loosing traction. I am in the latest chapter, and the last “fight” felt so weak. Even in New Waves, the last small fight felt more chaotic and impactful. This fight was so weak, it took place in the middle of nowhere, with no stakes other than Shinwo wanting to fight him and take revenge, and thats it.
