Okay so, I've got another crisis now.I just got suggested my old friend's account on instagram and she is engaged. ENGAGED!!!!! Like rings and all(She is 7 months older than me btw, so no age gap either)Explaining my feelings on this topic (which mostly have to do with me getting older and approaching ages of graduation, marriage and wisdom teeth removal) would be very complicated, but for some reason, seeing that post, I am now completely sure that I do not want to get married ever. The idea fills me with dread and panic and an urge to book the next flight to FijiI think early morning panic is getting to me. Seems like my sign to go to bed 👍
What one sees and what a camera records are never the same, so which one does truly represent reality? I always say that reality is subjective, for example:In the scenario where person A claims "the sky is blue" and person B claims "the sky is green" they are both true since person B has a tritanomaly (blue-yellow colour blindness) and sees the sky as greenish. Colour depends on our perception of light, but who is to say ours is the right one? As such, if a mechanical device (an objective captor) shows us how it percieves the world around us, is that the true and correct perception of the world we live in?I wondered about this for a long time and presented a multitude of arguments I won't list here and basically ended up running in circles, so I get the bright idea to run it through ChatGPT, see what it thinks (why didn't I think of that earlier??? 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️).And that's when ChatGPT very helpfully reminds me that cameras are actually biased as well (my reaction at my realising my stupidity: (ノ｀Д´)ノ彡┻━┻) )In the end, we concluded that there really is no such thing as a true perception of reality and that it is indeed subjective, making 3 months of my sporadic torment for nothing!!!!! I want to cry ＿|￣|○ (noises of defeat)
The white bracelet is something a friend of mine made for me. It was made to follow a traditional Croatian pattern for necklaces (you can see it on the golden necklace in the second picture) which I find pretty cool. It's my favourite bracelet (and I have enough of those for like 10 people. What can I say, I like bracelets 🤷♀️)See, I used to go to a Croatian culture summer camp where they had a traditional jewelry workshop and I made quite a few necklaces there (can't find any photos of the ones I made sorry). After a few years, the workshop leader had to discontinue the workshop because of administratove duties, so I took over and headed an unnofficial workshop during afternoon beach time for those who wanted to make any type of jewelry. I found the original schematics and model necklaces the workshop leader thaught us with in the material box and gave them to my friend since she was interested in making something traditional and more intricate. There actually weren't any schematics for this type of necklace, so it's really impressive she was able to replicate the pattern from an exhibition model we had. I hope the string the pearls are on doesn't break for a long long long time (I should probably either ask her to make me spares or learn how to make them myself 😂)
I went out at 22h and returned at 00:20. What was I doing, you ask? I was out on a walk. Kinda dead rn. The stars were very visible tonight. Actually, my best friend came here and she's fond of heat and going out and stuff since she's always cold (the opposite of me, who is always hot) and since she was missing some 6000 steps to her daily goal, we went out on a walk and talked about world domination and such things. This is kinda a shitty 111th post lmaoJust like me to use it up on something so stupid and mundane 😂Anyways, as someone who is usually never out after 19h (or at all really. I don't really like going out), I feel very guilty. Like I was doing something that I shouldn't.Meanwhile, my mom at 22h: Hana, go out on a walk or something. Bye.Like, my mom doesn't even care 😭
Did you know that Belgium has 3 official languages (French, Dutch, and German)?Except everyone always forgets about the German, since Belgians with German as a mothertongue are so rare they are practically an endangered species 😂No, really, I only know of one. The thing is that German is only spoken in the Easternmost part of Liège province in Wallonia, which, again, is French speaking 😅German speakers only make up 7% of the province's population and 0.7% of the national population, which is 11,825,551 people according to this year's census. So that makes less than 83 000 people. On a total of almost 12 million, it really isn't much, so that's why meeting one is so rare. And that's it for this random information dump. Toodles 👋
Some Chinese billionaire is on vacation here in Croatia. Just passed by his yacht (looked up the owner on google and it said 'a Chinese billionaire' lmao). Its huuuuuge. Costs 150M$ and I would totally live on it, it looks that cool! One can only dream 😂But really, I'm surprised its this close to shore. Actually, I don't even think this island has docking space for that monstrum. Not that they could get the docking space anyways, the waiting list is 5 years at least 😂Still, as cool as it is, owning a yacht must be such a pain. The upkeep cost for it is crazy high, then theres docking, and paying the crew as well. Bitlife makes it seem so easy 😔Welp, whatever. Not like its any of my business anyways 🤷♀️
Today, I am really really really PISSED.First, I was woken up early.Second, my mom insists on another one of her simply GENIUS ideasThird, I am about to die.So, you see, every once in a while my mom gets really pushy about one of her brainless ideas. This time, its going on a boat at high noon. And look, I really don't know whats wrong with most people in the world its like you're just begging for sunburns, heatstroke, and headaches. Not to mention just feeling overall GROSS and not being able to breathe in this heat. Even the national TV says it DON'T GO OUT BETWEEN NOON AND 5!!! What is unclear about that?!?!?! And because my mom is forceful and WILL physically drag me out, I will be stuck dying on some boat while I could have been sleeping. Mom, if I end up in the already overcrowded (because of idiots like you) hospital, I am never speaking to you again and holding this over your head for at least the next 20 years :)Yes, I am very very very mad.Is this harsh on my mom? Probably. Do I care? Not one bit!
