This is a study blog which is probably the only source of motivation for me right now. Hence, i'll be occasionally updating my study journey (until i get enough motivation to start my 100 days of productivity) Also, english isn't my 1st language so pls bear with me :)
A little about me:
Ash (nickname)
She/her
17 (18+ blogs dni)
INFJ-T
12th grade
Currently studying:
Atm the subjects i study are all over the place (im undecided on my major)- English, Psychology, Computer Science, Web design and development. Also if y'all have insight on them (which major is better/ easier or difficult/ has better scope etc) hit me up!
I'v got my finals in a month and the 2 subject exams i'm giving are Web Development and Psychology (i'm giving my 12th boards from NIOS that is an open schooling institution cos i essentially took a gap year. In it you choose 5+ subjects and study for particular subjects over the course of a year divided by 2 main sems- you can dm me if you have any questions!)
[I will also be occasionally documenting my islamic studies course because those exams are gonna be sometime in June. It includes Arabic Sarf and Nahw which is prose and grammer resp. and a few other subjects. But for now i'll be focussed more on my college exams bcs they are sooner and i'm already so stressed abt them]
P.S the pictures i use will mostly be from Pinterest because i dont live the "aesthetic" life but once in a while i might capture a good picture, who knows :)
Languages i know:
English is my second language. Urdu/Hindi is my first. I was learning Spanish for a bit (broke almost a year's streak on duolingo) i want to get back b4 i forget but it's not on my priority list for now. I'm learning Arabic as part of my Islamic studies course.
Tagging system:
Book tag: #ash-reads
Study tag that i track: #ashsreverie.study
🇵🇸 This blog supports Palestine (daily clicks to help Palestine) 🇵🇸

Vi parlo di questo libro bellissimo.
Tumblr media
"Un antropologo su Marte" è un saggio di Oliver Sacks, neurologo e scrittore britannico.
L'approccio innovativo di Sacks consiste nel sentirsi un esploratore nell'interiorità e nella mente di persone (o personaggi) all'apparenza distanti da sé e dal suo modo di vivere. No, non si tratta di componenti di tribù situate oltreoceano, ma di gente che lotta quotidianamente per la propria esistenza e che, a proprio modo, incarna la tanto temuta "alterità".
Sacks, dunque, adotta uno sguardo antropologico, realizzando dei veri e propri resoconti etnografici inerenti al tenore di vita, ai gusti, alle preferenze, alle credenze, ai vissuti delle persone e unisce ogni elemento raccolto. Egli interpreta i dati attingendo dalla letteratura scientifica. Questa, per quanto "molle", è anche vasta, complessa, contraddittoria e paradossale, proprio come l'essere umano.
Grazie alla capacità di cogliere il dettaglio per giungere all'universale (ragionamento induttivo) e a quella di saper sviscerare la complessità del generale per giungere al particolare (ragionamento deduttivo), Sacks consegna nelle mani del lettore un piccolo tesoro in grado di annientare il pregiudizio, poiché ogni scelta e ogni comportamento ha dietro una spiegazione profonda.
Solo sguardi sensibili e sapienti hanno l'opportunità di sperimentare quanto stolti siano gli stereotipi persino quando si discorrere di "patologie" e "sindromi". Sacks si mette alla ricerca del soggettivo, del vissuto del singolo e fa comprendere, attraverso elementi colti nella vita reale, come ogni essere umano dia il suo contributo con il suo unico e insostituibile universo interiore.

I've gone through my shelves and my Kindle library and updated everything to reflect what I actually own and still need to read/review.
The unread total is now 63 books: 25 physical and 38 digital. This does not include the book I'm reading now.
I'll be getting five more physical books from that gift subscription, for sure. I haven't been buying too many others, not like I used to.
The unread digital stuff is almost entirely a free-book spree I went on early this year.
It's only the start of June, so it's possible I could finally clear the backlog this year, but not guaranteed.

I really need to get my hands on a copy of Nabokov's Letters to Vera. Every time I find a quote on here it's just, so deeply beautiful.

Ordinarily, I don't preorder books; but when I read that a grieving mother plants the lung of her deceased son in her wall and it grows into a Mommy's Little Monster-style creature, I will not hesitate to take that plunge. What an adorable little guy there on the cover. Reminds me of Bat Boy. Saving it as an autumn read; just thought I would share it now.
