I’ve Defiled The Very First Page Of My New Journal—the One Destined To Be My Sacred Commonplace Book.
I’ve defiled the very first page of my new journal—the one destined to be my sacred commonplace book. A grand beginning, now tainted beyond repair. Truly, my talent knows no bounds.(sarcasm, of course)
I tend to get a bit dramatic...... nevermind.

Books that I bought for May. I've already had three of them on my tablet, and since I liked them, I decided to buy their paperbacks. Siddhartha and Kitchen are the ones that I'll be reading for the first time. I bought some stuff from Daiso as well, as there was a sale going on there.

These are not very good photos of Agra Fort from the outside. I took them from a moving car, and this is the best I could do.
A Thai handicraft made from coconut.
I've done too much shopping this month. I'm not at home right now, but once I get back, I'll post all my purchases from Crossword (the bookstore), Daiso, and the other stationery stores I've visited so far. I've definitely gone over budget, so it's time I pause this shopping spree. I need to face the fact that I'm not rich. (I'm not broke either, but I'm somewhere on the borderline — which might be the same thing.)
This is a Korean cutlery gift set meant for couples. I don’t get to touch it often, as it was my parents who received it as a gift.
I'm getting very stressed these days because my high school finals results will be declared soon. I know I didn't do well, so I just hope I pass and achieve the required percentage to get into universities. My first entrance exam didn't go well either. I plan to post everything I do — for example, if I finish one or two topics, I'll post about it. Maybe this will satisfy my brain and give it enough dopamine so that I don't procrastinate. Tommorow, I plan to complete Set Theory, Statistics, Sequences and Series, Permutations and Combinations, and maybe Linear Equations as well if I have some time left.
This turns out to be a Hakata doll, not a Kokeshi. Thank you @kojiiwata for letting me know!!
More info about these dolls that I looked up on the internet;
A Hakata doll is a traditional Japanese clay doll that originated in Fukuoka (formerly known as Hakata), on the island of Kyushu. These dolls are typically hand-crafted and painted, known for their realistic details, soft colors, and serene expressions.
This is the modern version of a kokeshi (こけし) doll. Though they are usually made of wood, the ones used as decorations or souvenirs are often made of clay, ceramic, or other materials.
