illusion_is_mine This past week was good. The weekend seemed a bit exhausting, and long, but I got through it. I was having issues with my blood pressure over the weekend, but I realized it was because I slipped up and ate pizza. Pizza is really my weakness when it comes to unhealthy food. Needless to say after I did my blood pressure was up pretty high. After that initial scare I ate very light the next day, and I managed to get it down significantly.
As for other things I've been reading a lot lately. I've been reading manga, and regular books. I finished Parasyte vol 1, Haikyuu vol 1, and I've started Black Cat vol 1 as I've heard it was pretty good. I have few more manga I need to finish, but I've been reading a lot in general lately. I've been reading some philosophy books mainly Hegel, Plato, Nietzsche, and just books on metaphysics. Despite me not being very religious I am interested in many different types of philosophy weather they be religious based or not. I think many of them are different interpretations on how to live one's life. I don't agree with all of them, but I think you can gain a lot by taking different ideas from each, and form your own opinions on which ones apply to your life. It helps make me remain open-minded when talking to people about their own beliefs as well. On a side note I think reading Hegel is essential if you want to understand the plot of Neon Genesis Evangelion. The creator of that series said that the philosophy of the series is based off of this book.
For anime I've been currently finishing up Dragonball. I'm obsessed with Dragonball apparently, and I can't get enough of the show. I just really enjoy all the characters, and the story I guess. Either way I bought this really cool DBZ jersey from amazon. Since I'm not a sports fan, but can appreciate the appeal of jerseys I figured a DBZ jersey would be awesome to have. And despite it being bright orange I really like it. I don't usually do bright colors, but I can make an exception for Dragonball I suppose. :)
I also ordered a remastered copy of Prince's "1999" album. It has some of my favorite songs from him, and it's a gatefold LP so that should be awesome. I grew up listening to Prince because of my dad. He had some of his records, but gave them away to people. He feels sort of bad about that now that I have a record player.
Some good news, I'm finally getting paid for my injuries, and loss wages for that accident by my insurance company. The other lady's insurance company however is being annoying, and they keep trying to avoid paying out. I'm getting tired of dealing with her insurance company. I'm getting tired of dealing with any of them tbh.
As for music here are few songs I've been digging lately. The one's without links I couldn't find on youtube, but by all means check them out if you're interested. I should just make spotify playlists tbh. Maybe I will one day.
