building this!
i'm working on slowly rebuilding my website from scratch with eleventy, and keeping track of my progress on the log page. i'm getting a little more comfortable with the process, i've started adding more collections of content, and i just recently got around to writing some really scuffed css to make it a bit nicer to look at.
learning languages
i'm keeping my duolingo streak up again! making slow, steady progress in the mandarin course. i also played around a bit with the beginning of the greek course recently, although i don't think i'll go very far with it. i want to take a trip to france this year, so i should probably start practicing french again, too.

Beautiful World, Where Are You
by Sally Rooney
i don't remember when i started reading this, but it was a while ago. i put it down at some point (not on purpose) and only just recently started reading it again — not my favorite sally rooney, but i'm enjoying it.
Pride and Prejudice
by Jane Austen
somehow, i've never read this — but i do watch the 2005 movie adaptation at least a couple times a year. so far, i love the book just as much as i love the movie. and i especially love picking out the similarities & differences between the two.
playing
Dragon's Dogma 2
i love this game. i unlocked the mystic spearhand vocation, and have been working on finishing up a bunch of side quests before i advance too much. i accidentally waited too long to save some lady's husband from a headless horseman, and now i have to go back to the city and tell her he was already dead when i got there — i was disappointed in myself at first, but then realized it was kind of fitting, since i named my character parsifal.

something nobody tells you about being a completionist is that eventually you're going to really need primogems for something, and there will be none for you to get because your map is already at 100% and you've done all the achievement hunting you can do. right now, i'm doing my absolute best to scrape up whatever i can in the hopes of getting arlecchino's scythe before her banner ends. wish me luck pls.
Honkai: Star Rail

the penacony quest continues to be really interesting! i haven't been playing as much recently, but i'm ready for robin & the next installment of the trailblaze mission coming out soon.
Pokemon LeafGreen
just started playing this on my analogue pocket — i've never finished a pokemon game, and i make no promises about finishing this one, but i'm currently lost somewhere in mt. moon & i'm having a lot of fun with my ivysaur.
what is this?
this is a /now page, with updates about what i'm focused on right now.
