Today I went swimming. Something cool: swimming to the bottom of the pool and floating up. Watching the bubbles rise. Breaking the surface. It feels very transcendent.

Summer ‘22, Day 31
Even as words inspire me, I grow tired of writing them. Is it because the wave of my words only crests softly while others crash and roar? Why am I doing this, writing little waves? Will I look up one day and discover a tsunami? And if I don’t, will perhaps one little wave of…
Summer ‘22, Day 30
Guess what? Today was another one of those days! I played ping-pong, checked out a bunch of library books, and generally had a great time 😄
Summer ‘22, Day 29
Today I had a great time hanging out with friends and playing ping-pong. I want more days like today.
Summer ‘22, Day 28
Today I started playing Stardew Valley and I’m loving it so far. The intro is perfect, the art style is perfect, the music is perfect; everything is so good. I’m playing on my iPad and I really like the 4:3 aspect ratio. It looks so big compared to 16:9.
Summer ’22, Day 27
I’m thinking about games I want to play. Here’s a list: Breath of the Wild, Manifold Garden, The Stanley Parable, Pikuniku, Chicory, Baba Is You, Hollow Knight, Celeste, Journey, Flower, ABZU, Stardew Valley, The Beginner’s Guide, and A Short Hike. Some of them I’ve already played, but I want to play again. I’m really interested…
Summer ’22, Day 26
Okay, what is this ;-; ? To me, it looks like a blank or slightly concerned face with raised hands, like “Woah there, easy.” Or maybe someone about to play the bongos deadpan. Is it supposed to be a sad face? Because I just can’t see it that way.
Summer ‘22, Day 25
I finished watching “Your Lie in April”. What words can do it justice? It’s a masterpiece, unforgettable, and very inspiring. These words are true, but they don’t do it justice. So does that convince you to give “Your Lie in April” a try? I hope it does.
Summer ‘22, Day 24
I’m enjoying watching “Erased” again. I really appreciate the story setup and it’s so good even the second time around.
Summer ‘22, Day 23
I love walking in the rain. I love the clear air and the splash of my footsteps. I love standing beneath trees and watching the water dance in the parking lots.
Summer ‘22, Day 22
I’m enjoying walking at night. It’s so quiet and peaceful. I also love the lighting environment at night and how different everything looks than during the day.
Summer ‘22, Day 21
Today I played piano! It’s fun to ignore music theory and just play whatever. I feel like I have to unlearn a lot of what I know to enjoy playing and not worry about being “correct”.
Summer ’22, Day 20
I had a great day today playing ping-pong, Uno, and hanging out with people. Campus isn’t so empty now and neither am I.
Summer ‘22, Day 19
Today I enjoyed playing ping-pong with my brother. I probably spend more time chasing the ball than actually playing, but it’s still a lot of fun!
Summer ‘22, Day 18
Today I went swimming! I hadn’t been swimming in 4 years and I forgot how much I like it. Also, real life water caustics are ridiculously good.
Summer ‘22, Day 17
I’m on episode 17 of “Your Lie in April”. Aaaaaaaaaaaahhh, what’s going to happen???
Summer ‘22, Day 16
Hey, I’m starting summer classes at university! Almost everything was closed today because Memorial Day. I walked all over campus and it’s so empty. A voice from a tv echoes. A lock twitches. Equipment screaming warnings to absent operators. Hum of air conditioning. Names, names, names on doors, but no faces. Edit 4/30/2023 (11 months…
Summer ‘22, Day 15
Sidewalks are monotonous. I really appreciate fun features like stepping stones and alternate paths. Maybe the monotony is necessary to make the fun features fun.
