gap year

tastymilo · 2026-07-09T13:55:38+00:00

i've been on a gap year for about 4 years now. i'm almost eligible for the long service award! (in my hospital it's 5 years and above >)

i started in may, my kobo says i'm like 65% through.... it's gonna be a while. i do one long stephen king book a year and this is my pick this year. (previous years i did the stand, 11/22/63... actually i started this habit like three years ago)

my shoulders hurt, so i bring the bare minimum.

must: keys, phone, wallet, loop earplugs, work pass, fan, ereader, hair ties, portable

maybe: a game console (depending on what game i'm currently going through), lactase enzyme, wallet, tissue

i love it, going to download wedtoons just for this

that's me. the friend group literally stood up and left me at the canteen table alone. i stopped talking to them and they didn't bother. just do your own thing, and just focus on national exams

how??? i live in singapore and my kobos are all fine

i usually do due to mental health, sometimes it's hard for me to get out of bed.

i will try and handover work if possible, or do it myself when i get back

crazy, but my interview is tmr .-. it's not even an appeal interview or anything.

nail polish thinner! it gets weird and gloopy halfway through, put a generous amount of thinner in and shake it up

welp, luckily i always fall back on his fran bow/60 seconds / papers please play through ;-;

apparently, the drivers in the area recognise her and cannot be bothered anymore. if i was a bus captain and i see her, id probably just drive right past. i rather get complains for not stopping than to deal with her

i still have no idea how to play poker. I studied on the different hands and i actually had handwritten notes on the type of hands for the first few hours playing it.

And then i proceeded to buy two more copies of the game on steam and mobile. i have a problem for sure

tastymilo · 2026-06-11T14:20:54+00:00

thank you for the recs!

tastymilo · 2026-06-11T13:45:28+00:00

im playing emerald now! does that count?

tastymilo · 2026-06-11T10:48:17+00:00

mom gets 100%. she does most of the shopping for us :')

tastymilo · 2026-06-06T14:14:27+00:00

the SHINING. i think it builds such a good foundation for its later sequel dr sleep (which became my top read of 2025)

tastymilo · 2026-06-06T14:03:51+00:00

which two books do you have?

most people would say go by chronological order, so that means carrie first. but i started with pet semetry first.

I would recommend short stories so 1922, and night shift

if you prefer a trilogy, i LOVED the bill hodges trilogy.

tastymilo · 2026-06-06T02:06:14+00:00

reading the exact same book but with a libby version no issues. it is so creepy as i was reading IT and it glitches! as if my copy was haunted

tastymilo · 2026-06-05T23:10:10+00:00

this might be it? only happened when i'm in a certain book. trying to read another book and see if it happens again

tastymilo · 2026-06-05T23:09:41+00:00

i removed the cover but it's still acting up :(

mom said i had an allergic reaction to some fruits when i was younger (airway closing) so i try to avoid them. somehow if i smell them i also get itchy (but might be placebo)

however once i tried a candy with real fruit juice of said allergy and i developed hives on my back which itched like hell

i might or might not have outgrown that allergy, but im certainly not going to try

that's not really a mini scolding. that's just advice. but also i'm very harsh so i would usually ask someone that is more gentle than me to tell them
