I'm Feeling 22

Last week, I turned 22. 

Well past the “-teen”, but still a long way to go into the twenties.

  

Just when can you say you’ve grown up? Is there a point where your thinking and behavior changes? It’s different for everyone, but mine came after a series of events (that are not necessarily bad) during my last year of college. It paved the way for the shift from idealistic to realistic.

My Big Bad Wolf Midnight Raid

I had just committed myself to decluttering my living space according to Marie Kondo's principle of keeping only the things that spark joy for you. Just as I had either discarded or sold more than half of all my belongings, Big Bad Wolf, the biggest international book sale, had come to the Philippines. And being the bookworm/book-hoarder that I am, that only means one thing: new books are coming into my living space once again.
