Reading Location
Daily writing prompt
You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. Whatās it like?
I don’t think I have really thought about this but I think my perfect reading space has to be cosy. I get cold really fast so there has to be a blanket, I know that a fireplace its too extravagant and will usually encourage others to come and sit with you meaning no real reading will happen. I think it would have a comfy chair that I can perhaps take a nap on and I think I want it to be private. My perfect reading place has usually been in the bathtub. I am relaxed, I can bring a drink in there and I can stay in there for hours reading or editing my work. Usually when I write a first draft of something on my computer I don’t want to look at it again but when I’m in the bathroom with my tablet I am able to look at it with a fresh set of eyes. I also like starting work in the tub, I can write a draft of what I intend to do or I can read a little bit of the book to determine if I wish to continue with the text. I think therefore the perfect place to read is either a really beautiful bathroom or one of those under the stairs libraries like where Harry Potter lived but they have your books and you can just sit, hopefully with some light coming in to keep you warm or enable you to look out the window when you are taking a break.
For writing I’m not too sure, I think you probably just need the right set of tools, the correct pen the right paper or the perfect keyboard and hot drink and it feels like the ideas will just flow. I think I am more experienced in knowing the perfect place to read than to write so I am excited to read what everyone else says.
p.s. I also like to read by the beach but I’m always too distracted by how beautiful the water is that I never seem to be able to fully get into the book.
Favourite Automobile
What is your all time favorite automobile?
I name my cars and I think so far my favourite has been urban angel! She took me through the pandemic without any real problems. My mum and I would joke itās American trash (itās a ford fiesta) but the thing about ford is their parts are cheap so even when something is really wrong itās kinda cheap to fix. I think my favourite automobile is one that gives me a good return on investment, has reasonable repair expenses and wonāt stop running because of an accident or two.
Honorary mention to my first car a Pontiac that I ran without an oil change for two years and was surprised when it just shut down one day
Seeing the ābestā in people
Are you a good judge of character?
No I donāt think I am. I generally try to see the best in people and give people a chance but that results in not seeing whatās in front of me. I also donāt trust my instincts, Iāve met people with whom Iāve thought I donāt think we click but I always revert to maybe they having a bad day or I read them wrong when in actuality we donāt mesh and that is A okay. So no I donāt think Iām a good judge of character.
Taking French Lessons
I know that doesn’t seem fun but I have a working level of French and I’ve been working on getting better so that I can hopefully get a bilingual job. Yes professional development is fun for me. C’est ma vie!
I will be honest, I was a little hesitant before the lesson, because while I can read French ok, I am shy to practise the speaking part. I nervously signed into my zoom lesson but in the end I actually had a really good time. Practising a new language is fun because your tongue often doesn’t do what you need it to and in knowing that you don’t have the ability to do something you relax and let loose. So yep that’s the last fund thing I did.
