If you look all around, life has way with words. Everything around you had a causal reason to be there. Perhaps your mom needed a ironing rack for that period of time? You never can truly predict where you'll get a certain item from, and that may either be a waste of space or a cherished memory. Thinking about it, why do people not cherish appliances that they bought? Why do some things hold more emotional weight than others? There may be some underlying principals underpinning everything said, but perhaps it's best to stay in the dark in regards to them. Knowing the unpredictability of the human mind, you can never be sure what you'll feel after knowing how things work.

That may not be such a bad thing however. The ebb and flow of knowledge comes from the inherent need for the human race, if it isn't needed, there is no reason for one to seek it other than morbid curiousity. Could one also say that morbid curiousity is a need? From what I know, the creation of something isn't an isolated event, it doesn't happen without a reason.

Regarding my camera, I was really heartbroken when the battery locking mechanism broke. While it isn't life-ending, the camera was something I hold very dearly to me. It was such a shame seeing a perfectly good camera being damaged in a way. There is a part of me who wants to blame the person who left me being awkward all by myself with their family, but I also know that it was very much my fault for being too careless with my camera. So, I can't pin the blame on anyone else but me. It'd be much easier to blame someone for my mistakes, and that's the option I am avoiding. Owning up to my own mistake is a sign of growth too, I suppose.

I'll learn to be less careless with my camera, avoiding to put it in my pocket in fear that it'll drop out again. I should've known, considering that my pant's pocket was small. It'd be nice to get an apology, but then again, it was my fault to begin with.

I had just gotten my result slip, and there are some subjects where I'm really disappointed at. For instance, Moral and Additional Mathematics and Chemistry were 3 of the subjects of where I struggled the most in, and it clearly shows in the results. I genuinely dislike how it turned out.

Fortunately, I've been reading the Arts and Craft of Problem-Solving. Hopefully, the book will be able to guide me on getting better in Math in general. Plus, reading it seems to be a genuinely nice experience. I'm planning to complete 10 pages today, and hopefully not overconsume to the point my comprehension goes terribly.

Moving on, I realized a pattern in History. You don't have to remember a lot of things in History at all, because there are ways for you to extrapolate the answer with just a tiny bit of background knowledge and mostly logic. This applies to most subjects as well. However, as do most things in life, it needs time and practice to do well.

I'm honestly still worried about my camera. A while ago, I placed my camera on a bookshelf, and I left it there for a while. My cat then felt like it was a great time to urinate right next to my camera. That camera was an expensive one passed down by my now deceased father, so it would honestly be a shame if it no longer worked. Additionally, I'm also waiting impatiently for my Universal Charger to arrive. I seriously hope it works.

A short summary of my day today, it's pretty decent. I enjoyed my time at school and at home.

Today is the first day of me being detoxxed. I just got back home from school, and I'm thinking of just relaxing for the day. Had I not started, I'd probably have spent my time watching YouTube all day. Which, as one knows, is quite a bad thing to do. I don't exactly want to spent ages watcing YouTube and struggling on maintaining my power over the algorithm

So, I got bought a dumbphone. My dumbphone is just a normal Nokia 105 2019 that functions as my main communication device. The reason why I bought a dumbphone is because my smartphone is infinitely distracting, and using it for one thing will lead to me using it for another, less valuable, thing.

Moving on, I'm also considering switching to mainly using an actual camera to take pictures. As I had mentioned, a smartphone may and most likely will lead me astray with it's devilish allure. While my camera may be lower quality than my modern camera, the pros of switching far outweighs the cons of using. Additionally, as I would have to transfer the file from the camera to the laptop, it would be far too inconvenient for me to keep snapping pictures without second thought. This dilutes the precious value of each photo, of when taking pictures were a once in a lifetime thing

For Day 1, starting this blog is one of the effects of Digital Detox. Since I have nothing better to do, I might as well start a blog.
