Hello everyone! Hope you are all well. As the restrictions imposed by the government ease off, I got to leave home more often. I feel this puts us all under an obligation to be more responsible. This vlog took forever to edit because I lost a lot of footage and had low quality quality footage to work with ( I'm sport, of the quality of these shots are not the best) I will be more careful in the future. I have so many brilliant video ideas in mind but I need to get a hang of the technological side of the things. So wish me luck and thank you so much for bearing with me. In this vlog, I continued practicing my book buying ban and showed enormous self restraint and didn't buy any more books. I finished reading Mansfield Park by Jane Austen and started reading The Plague by Albert Camus ( after a lot of you guys voted for me to read it on my Instagram @instareesha ) And wow! That book is amazing and by the time this video is up, I'll be don't reading it. I feel like I have been reading amazing books during quarantine this year and for some reason I'm hesitant in things going back to the way they were. With things getting back to normal I'll have less and less time to read.
