I'm Thinking of Reading a Book 💁🏻‍♀️

I'm really sorry for not posting for so long but I was studying for my finals. But now that my exams ended, be ready for the posts that are coming up!  I thought that it would be better to start my posting spree on the recently added category in this blog, which is -as you have probably guessed- the books of the month. So, with no further due let's see what books I read the period I was gone. 

About two years ago I had my hair cut. The strange thing about that was the fact that I always wanted to have long, luscious hair. Nevertheless, as I tried to explain in this post , I felt that I needed  a change and I took the big decision. And I was really excited with the outcome. But that lasted only for a few weeks. After a while, my opinion about my hairstyle changed radically and I promised to myself to never cut my hair so short ever again. And I kept my promise until a few weeks ago. 

Well, teaching English is just awesome! For almost a month now I am helping my sister improve her English so that she can take and pass an English proficiency test and receive a certificate, which is very useful for her job-wise. Since I am studying English Language and Literature and since I have attended courses concerning effective teaching and since at the next semester I will be sent to observe an English class and then do the teaching myself, I decided to take advantage of this opportunity and gain a bit of teaching experience.

This is going to be a new section on my blog, in which I am going to list the books I read the previous month. Because I am a postgraduate student in English Language and Literature I have a lot of reading to do. But this is always a good thing! However, not all of the books mentioned are read by me because I had to for my courses. On the contrary, I read most of them because I love literature. And I hope that you will love it too or you will love it more by reading the following books.

First of all, Happy Birthday to me 💁 Second of all, this is my second try writing this post. Yesterday afternoon I wrote a post as a draft saying how I am a year older now, and one thing that shows how mature I am becoming as the years go by is the fact that I am trying to think of the feelings of the people around me and not just myself. Well, by yesterday evening I managed to hurt a person I really care about.

Happy New Year 😄 I am going to start this year's publishing with a kind of sad and serious post but I hope that it will actually help both me and you with our 2018 resolutions. It is something that happened to me in 2017 but I think that I will remember it forever. 

I guess that everyone has been put at the awkward situation, in which he or she -usually while in school- has to stand at the front or at the center of a room and start talking about something. This is exactly what a great friend of mine and I had to do on previous Wednesday. We worked really hard on the project we were assigned and then it was our time to actually present our work to our fellow students and to our professor.

If you are a hardcore subscriber or if you just noticed that I had been gone for a while, you may be wondering what I have been up to all this time. Besides from studying and working, nothing amazing has happened to my life. There was an evil reason for my absence and that was that I didn't have access to the internet. To cut a long story short, I had a lot of complaints against the company that provided me with internet and instead of renewing my contract I asked for my line to be transferred to another company. But in order for this to happen several days were needed. As you can guess, now I do have internet in my house but the previous approximately two weeks were a living nightmare.

Summer is officially over when you have to get up early in the morning -either it is 6 or 11 a.m., it is equally bad, as in both cases waking up can be a brutal act- and go to class. Although my posts are usually for everyone, I would like to dedicate this one to university or college students, who I feel -or I hope- can easily identify with my thoughts. I am myself a university student for two years now and I have a lot to say about the experience and the system.

I think that I have a problem; I can't stop shopping. I just love clothes so much that when I find something that I like, I have to buy it. And I have a good excuse. I have a lot of clothes that I don't like very much. You know, they are either presents usually from relatives that make you wonder "Why me?" or pieces that for some uncanny reason you thought that you can totally rock them. So, since I don't like them, I don't wear them. But this leaves me with few outfit options every day, which entails that I have to buy new pieces.
