This is my first weeknotes note 🎉
I don't really know what's usual about these things. I've read a bunch of Weeknotes on my phone and it seems everyone does as they please, so I'm gonna do the same.
WHAT HAPPENED THIS WEEK
- I got more used to having Neko (My dog) and it feels like a huge win! I'm no longer extra tired and we've been able to settle in a sorta routine that works well.
She still pees inside but less so which is encouraging.
- I started working on a weekend project. A simple menu bar app to convert files (at first only to WebP but I plan on adding more file types). I really wanted to try PHPNative and I needed an app to convert files so I thought this would be a great occasion ^^. I will write more about it soon.
If you're curious, here's a link to the github repo.
- I worked on a few fun things at worked and had to do my first price estimation for a project 😬 That was hella scary and I never want to do it again but I will definitely have to... Hopefully I wasn't too off the mark.
- The Foire de Liège is soon starting and the ferris wheel is right in front of my home. It's always impressive to see them build such a big thing in a matter of a few days. I'm a bit scared for the Foire to start this year cause idk how Neko is going to react. She's really scared of people.
- It's officially Spooky Season! We bought a new XXL blanket to enjoy warm drinks in front of halloween movies with my SO. It's really our favourite season and I can't wait to enjoy it all. The colors are just so nice!!!
LINKS OF THE WEEK
WHAT I WATCHED THIS WEEK
- Alice in Borderland (the series)
I liked season one and two (especially season two) but was really disappointed by season three. The games were less fun and the ending is mighty frustrating. It feels like another Netflix likes money series.
- We Have a Ghost
What even is that? To be fair, we didn't finish the movie, but it sucked so so hard. It's one of these movies where they push the Netflix woke (Gosh I hate that word) to the max and it just feels forced.
WHAT I LISTENED TO THIS WEEK
MUSIC
- Twenty One Pilots — Breach
IMO their best album. I hadn't said that since Blurryface. Every song feels TOP.
- Mac DeMarco
I love all his music. The dude is just too good. His latest album Guitar is so chill and works so well with the season's vibe.
- My Chemical Romance — The Black Parade
Probably in my top ten albums all time. It never gets old.
- Masayoshi Takanaka
The dude knows how to play guitar... I'm always impressed and in a good mood when I listen to him.
PODCASTS
- Les Goûts Les Couleurs
This podcast is so much fun. I listen to it when doing my groceries (and only then, I wait till I have to do my groceries for listening) and always end up laughing to myself in the shop.
- Through the Griffin Door
A podcast that deep dives on each Harry Potter chapter. To be honest I don't know all that much about the series. I have seen every movie once and the 4 first ones a bunch more and have never read the books. It's a weird way to discover something than to have two really knowledgeable people do a deep dive on something you don't know all that much about.
