As a newcomer to Canada and someone who's never played and watched ice hockey before, I was surprised and excited by the energy surrounding ice hockey here, especially during the Stanley Cup playoffs in session.

#18 読書感想シリーズ:その「決断」がすべてを解決する 10.05.2024 16:18
原題 The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck 邦題まったく違うタイトルになっててめちゃびっくりした
#18 Book review: The Subtle Art of Not Giving A Fuck 03.05.2024 13:44
First of all, if you are an English learner, “give a fuck” or “give a shit” sounds dirty or crude but the reality is this means “care” or “mind”. So if you use I don’t give a fuck or I don’t give a shit, it means, I don’t care about it. Or I don’t mind which is common expression among casual conversation. So you don’t have to be scared to hear any dirty talk from this book. Overall, I loved thi...

I currently try to read one book a month. The latest book I completed was "The Psychology of Money" by Morgan Housel which is one of the current best sellers on Amazon Kindle. Honestly, reading was not my thing in my entire life. I only finished several business books related to my previous profession that were needed, but I started this because, needless to say, reading is supposed to b...
