This year was not a good reading year. I hit a slump and I just didn't feel like reading much at all. I've read 21 books and here are my top 3.

1. Conversations With Friends by Sally Rooney. (This was my book of the summer. I just love the writing and I can't put it down)

2. I Hope You Stay by Courtney Peppernell (The best poetry book I've read so far)

3. Skinny Bitch by Rory Freedman (An oldie but a goodie)

2020 has been a lot and I mean a lot. It brought so much change that I wonder how things will ever go back to normal or when it will be. But this year made me realise things that matters most and I learned a thing or two along the way. So here it goes the highlights and the learnings.

Highlights

1. Went to Sweden and Denmark for the first time last Feb.

2. Caught up with my high school friend over dinner at Canary Warf. 

3. UK went to lockdown last 23 March. 

4. Moved to a new apartment at East London.

10. Decided to go vegan. 

11. Officially a year in London and unemployed LOL. 

12. Pandemic has really took over.

Learnings:

1. Eternal life matters most.

4. Nurturing relationships are so important.

5. Always take the time to talk to your parents. 

6. I understood what it truly means to Live A Simple Life and Be Happy

Don't lose hope. Don't be disheartened. Be thankful each day that you are alive. Do your best one day at a time and don't plan too far ahead. Don't be too happy too else you'll weep. Take care of your health. If you're unhealthy, money means nothing.
