Friends! Unfortunately, it's been a tough week so I didn't get a chance to write anything worth sharing. I hope you're having a great week and excellent things are happening in your life.
Little life notes though:
I've been busy with interviews for possible internships this summer. It's a great thing to be busy with and I'm excited by the prospects.
I also started re-reading one of my favorite books, Deep Work by Cal Newport. It's an interesting dive into how work culture is backwards and how focusing more deeply can bring more value to your life. I definitely recommend it!
Drops of the Week
where I *drop* recommendations of cool things this week
Essay
“The Joy and Intimacy of the Personal Writing Outlet” by Zan Romanoff - this is a highly relatable article which outlines some of the reason I created this newsletter and continue to stick to it (most of the time).
Album
EP2 by yaeji - fantastic album by Korean-American artist yaeji, who blends English and Korean lyrics to her electronic music
Short Film
"This Table” - honestly, I don’t even understand short films anymore at this point
