I keep saying this but this semester has the worst schedule yet!
One day 08.30 (in which I have to wake up at 4.35), the next 12.30, then a 10.30, then another at midday... So my sleeping schedule is just ruined. And all the lessons except one day, end after 5pm. Bus takes like an hour... Yeah, I'm always beat whenever I arrive home, and barely can study, if any at all.

I have nearly no time for any drawing, or writing, or to do any other hobbies. I hope a few weeks after, after I'm done with some semester-long homeworks, I'll try to write more here. I missed reading my subscribed journals too! -__-

So yeah, that's about it. But Ramazan (Ramadan) has started two nights ago! I still haven't started reading Qur'an though and I feel bad about it... Like I said, I have no time, but I should make time for it tbh.
But I'm watching a new series called Men of Angelos in English, that's about the Seven Sleepers parable, but it's an Iranian series. It was so refreshing to see Romans in Muslim context haha! And the acting of the main characters are mostly great anyway, even if sets are a bit lacklusting. Hadrian has been mentioned too many times but I feel like we aren't going to see him. xD

Finally, I'm done with finals!
I've had too much things to do, but now that I actually have time, I suddenly have no motivation to do anything again.

I started The Hunger Games after having read it about +10 years ago... It's honestly better than I remember -- Collins have literally put nothing that is unnecessary, or filler. Everything is there for a reason and I love it. It's a real page turner.

ONE THING I'M OBSESSED WITH... I've finished watching Cadfael. I'm sad, because it was exactly what I was looking for: 12th century England Benedictine monks! (I've mentioned before that I'm planning out a story around the same era and one of my characters is a Benedictine monk himself.) I just love it so much honestly.

The characters are also one of the things that got me so much into it. Cadfael is so lovable, he's honest about his feelings and even though he usually criticizes those who use religion for their own greed, he remains a loyal believer. BUT I LOVED BROTHER OSWIN SOOO MUCH. He's sooo cute and such a wholesome little (!) guy. AND not to mention, the mean girls Jerome and Robert are so funny -- especially Jerome. Julian Firth has acted so wonderfully, he sells the character just right.

I grabbed the copy of "A Morbid Taste for Bones" my uni had in its library, and it was sooo well written! Unfortunately, only about three of the books are translated but neither of the other two were available in the library. I would have read them in English just fine, but it becomes so expensive to buy+ship them to Türkiye. I had bought "One Corpse Too Many" for such a good price and it arrived today. Can't wait to read it!

NOW TO THE MOST IMPORTANT NEWS! GALATASARAY HAS BECOME CHAMPIONS OF SÜPER LİG AGAIN and we finally have 5 stars on our badge! Unfortunately, we also said goodbye to Muslera. He's been part of the team for so long that it feels so weird to imagine the club without him... Now I hope the transfers this summer will be good (I don't think it will happen...) so that we can actually do some good things in Champions League this year.

Book talk: Going through one of the worst stressful reads in my life, ever. It's been quite a long time since I've felt this much annoyance while reading a book, I swear I'm using all my strength to go through it.

It's a mandatory read for the finals for Turkish Literature class, and while I don't particularly get mad or anything for mandatory reads, this one has such a way of writing that it's so hard to even turn a single page.

Expect a rant post when I finish this. 😭

Life talk: Besides that, I think I'm going through the lessening of motivation near the end of semester"era right now. It's so hard to keep going, and the teenagers get on my nerves a lot lately.

Media talk: I finally managed to finish the first season of Mehmed: Fetihler Sultanı (it took me like months??) and I enjoyed it mostly, it's a lot better than the other Ottoman shows by Turkish media -- less of harem intrigue, more of war and politics. Besides that, I also started to watch HBO's Rome, and it's been alright. I'm so busy that I barely managed to reach the last episode of the first season. I'm so in love with the main lead, Lucius... 😭 He's just so my type...😭
