Finished Reading First Textbook for the Semester
I feel so accomplished. I am done reading my biopsychology book. It was not too big, only 18 chapters, but it always feel good to finish a textbook. It is a lot different then finishing a regular book because with a regular book you get an ounce of enjoyment reading it, and with a textbook you are focusing on every single word in the book and try to cram as much of it as you can into your memory.
Finishing a textbook is always a sign of semester coming to a close. Feels good to be one step closer to the goal. This also means that four brand new textbooks are just around the corner.
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.

An interesting mechanism in YouTube I just learned of. If you right click once, you get their context menu: If you right click again, you get the native browser menu: This is clunky and not discoverable, but I can see YouTube team’s bind here. As far as I...
