I’m always late for films. But when I do watch them, I fall in love.
So, I got literally allergic to procrastination. Every time I try to procrastinate, which I am used to be a true fan of, I get physically sick. I cannot get over it until I finish stuff. It scares me, though it can be useful.
This street art can be found on Quay Street, in Auckland CBD. The first time I saw it I felt the need to pull over and take a picture because it immediately made me think of Hazel and Augustus. The girl with her short cropped hair. The tall boy, leaning low to meet her, slightly awkward as his weight shifts between his real and prosthetic leg. I think of how she isn’t touching him, as if she’s trying not to get too lost in the romance of it all; she remembers that she’s still a grenade. He’s holding her, but not with both arms, because he knows that he’s a grenade too.
This is amazingly accurate.
Consume less - do (create!) more
All the information we have available only increases our stress levels and diminishes available time. We consume much more than we create, we read much more than we think, and it should be the other way around. We have to make sure we consume the things that truly matter to us, but only so that we have time to create something that matters to someone else.
***
Всё то огромное количество информации, которое нам доступно, лишь повышает наш уровень стресса и уменьшает количество имеющегося у нас времени. Мы потребляем намного больше, чем создаём, мы читаем намного больше, чем думаем, а всё должно быть наоборот. Мы должны удостовериться в том, что потребляем только необходимые и важные для нас вещи, за счёт чего у нас в свою очередь появится время на создание тех вещей, которые важны для кого-то ещё.
Book Review ★ The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
I just couldn’t stay silent and I… I tried.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
I was crying throughout the whole film. All-time favourite since tonight.
And what if I never grow old?
Guys, I did it. I made a fan translation of The Fault in Our Stars into Russian. I’m so scared, and proud, and it will never be published, but THIS IS MY FIRST EVER TRANSLATION OF THE WHOLE BOOK!!!
