Thoughts on this year

Hello,

This is an example blog post about some media highlights for this year, and some present preparation!

These blog pages are in its own folder, "blog".

Also note how the most recent blog post should be titled "index.html" in the "blog" folder, so that when your user goes to "yoursite.neocities.org/blog", they end up on your most recent post!

Here's what I ended up making:


A card and a dog
I made the dog using a guide with a brown pipe cleaner:

every good decision starts with a noose...

I think he turned out pretty cute!

For the year of 2025, below are the notable medias:

Books:
The Cherry Orchard and Hedda Gabler
Drama plays from 1904 and 1891
These old european/russian plays I enjoyed a lot, as they portrayed women as beings with real personalities!!! (including with real flaws!!).
I know I am doing the works a disservice by associating them so closely, but I did like how the characters in it were so confident with expressing how miserable they were, and had no interest in serving others or putting others over themselves.

The Name of the Rose
1980 mystery fiction
I haven't finished reading this book but I've thoroughly enjoyed it so far - highly recommended for those who haven't read it (apparently, all Europeans already have). It is LA Noire but for catholic monks.


I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki
2018 memoir
I didn't particularly like this text, but I did appreciate the format - it is a series of scripts from the author's therapy sessions. I read it because my younger sister said she related to it and the author died recently (presumed suicide). Which made me go >___>. So I read the book and talked to her about it and things seem to be ok.
