197

I cannot believe it's February. 

I've been struggling with bad grammar; poor pronunciation, and a dissatisfactory level of spoken English in general. 

Also, I've fallen in love with Borgen, a Danish drama about Danish politics, but if there's one thing we learn from the international acclaim this show has received, it's that no matter where you are, the crux of politics - power struggle; deceit; manipulation, it's the same thing. Meanwhile, I've also fallen in love with Scandinavia, and am torn between that and New Zealand. The Danes speak beautiful English, and Pittram Singh's quote - "To the young people of this nation, no matter what happens on Saturday, remember one thing; never, ever give up on your country" has almost become my impetus. 

Apart from that, Nicole Krauss said an amazing thing about the beauty of bookshops; which almost sums it up. " You go in meaning to buy Hemingway, but you end up with Homer instead." 

I've been (strangely) blessed with a stroke of motivation + discipline that (still confused over when to use which/that) has led to me to be weirdly productive. It's really tiring, but I'm not complaining. 

I think I've been thinking out loud. Other than that, Happy February. :-)

Cheers!
