Today no one came… I’m getting ready to leave early…

After finishing that assignment translation, all that was left was Sun Laoshi’s paper. Today I hauled over a pile of books about Aristotle, only to discover that after finishing the translation I was suddenly drained of energy and could hardly read them, so the latter half of the day was more or less wasted…

All at once I found myself missing the days of studying at Egg Hall with A Fei. It really is true that the more one sits idly alone, the more foolish one becomes. Worse still, I didn’t bring my headphones, so I couldn’t even listen to music, and it seems I’ve ended up with that long-lost feeling of “restlessness”… Sigh~ Hurry up and get through finals already..

Next Wednesday the 20th, given that the progress of the paper is still unknown, and that some old classmates are likely to come looking for me, there is a very good chance that the salon will be suspended. Of course, it may also be that, since the official start of the vacation has arrived, we’ll just have a big BG session? In any case, please keep an eye on the blog and the campus network for updates.

    If you have time, recommend some worthwhile books and films to watch..
    Not necessarily philosophy-related..
    Okay?

    There are too many books worth reading; where should I even begin?.. In the blog’s “Reading—Buying Books” folder, the ones marked with a star count as recommendations. In addition, I’m planning to organize the bookshelf over the summer vacation, and then I’ll summarize everything again

    The salon will go ahead as usual tomorrow. If there are many people, we may use a conference room.
