Internal peace. That's just two words, linguistics. Comfort comes with warmth of accepting the absurd which is life. Then, you decide to follow the words to color you in.

oieee! i had to go to college to return some books because my classes are finished (thank god) and i'm officially on vacation.
i'm still reading 'a peste' by camus. it's good but i was too busy getting crazy with the finals.
next book i'm gonna read is another byung-chul han (i know, i'm a stan) - 'hiperculturalidade'.
hope everything is good with you all. 🤍🌧
finished 'tell me i'm an artist', which was really good. what it means to be an artist? that's a very profound question, i think.
also, i'm reading 'infocracia' because i want to read everything byung-chul han writes.
actually i'm reading too many books at the same time. 5! AND trying to deal with college.
great music to be my partner, hayley slays. fr. 🤍🌧
these are some books that i've bought recently. expecting lispector and camus of me should be common sense by now. and of course, literary theory. 🤍

"We must mend what has been torn apart, make justice imaginable again in a world so obviously unjust, give happiness a meaning once more..."
from Lyrical and Critical essays by Albert Camus
camus was so gorgeous, wasn't him? and had such a strong personality. innocent tho, an idealistic. you can easily fall in love with him just by reading about his history.
(yes, it's one of my inspirations if you couldn't tell already!) 🤍🌧
i wish albert camus had a merch
