Quickly record recent events. Since the decrease in emo emotions, the number of entries in my life journal has also decreased. I remember that last year's entries at this time were all related to emo culture.
Attending a Wedding#
On the 3rd, I went to a relative's wedding with my family. The bride married a wealthy man, and the wedding was quite grand. They rented a villa for two days, which cost tens of thousands of dollars per day. When I first went there, I thought it was a tourist attraction.
The wedding car was a small golden statue, and there were various ceremonies in the morning. We received a lot of red envelopes and gifts. I didn't understand the many rituals of a wedding. Anyway, as long as I could have a free meal. The wedding banquet at noon was only a small part, and the main event was in the evening.

In the evening, there was a larger wedding banquet with hundreds of people. They even hired a band, and there was a lucky draw session. At first, there were small games to win home appliances, and in the end, they even gave away iPads, big TVs, and gold bars. The wealthy groom really knows how to play. Although I didn't win anything.

Hangzhou Liangzhu Tour#
During the holiday, I went to Hangzhou again. This time, I mainly went to Liangzhu Yubird Collection. The day before, I had dinner with friends in Hangzhou.
Having dinner with friends is truly a paradise for extroverts and a hell for introverts. There were hardly any conversations throughout the entire meal.
The next day, we went to Liangzhu. After taking the subway to the end, there was still a distance to walk. I thought it wouldn't be far and considered it as exercise. But halfway through, I realized I was lost. I have no sense of direction. So I took a taxi to Yubird Collection.

There is a bookstore called "One-Way Space" at the entrance of Yubird Collection. The architectural style is very unique. That being said, there are many other unique buildings within Yubird Collection.
Originally, I wanted to experience "Crazy Thursday," but unfortunately, everyone was out traveling during the holiday, so only Lakr and I were writing code in a coffee shop.

Across the street is a conceptual bookstore called "Cat's Sky City." At first, my impression was that it was a cat food store or a store related to pets. But after entering, I realized it was a bookstore, or rather, a trendy stationery store. There were quite a few people coming to take photos.

Later, I read the autobiography of "Cat's Sky City" and learned about the origin of this trendy store. The first store was located on Pingjiang Road in Suzhou. The couple went through the hardships of starting a business and emerged from the era of declining traditional bookstores to develop into a trendy store. The design of "Sending to the Future" is interesting. At this moment, what do I most want to tell my future self? Whenever I think about the future, I feel very scared and lost.
In the evening, I wandered around nearby and experienced the atmosphere of the village.

Slowing Down#
Life has become faster, and many things have become impatient.
Recently, my life has slowed down. I am learning to play a musical instrument and watching several TV series in their entirety.
Since I bought an electric piano last month, I spend one or two hours practicing the piano every day. I haven't hired a teacher yet, and I want to see how far I can go with self-learning. I don't want to attend classes because it might create pressure and tasks that I have to complete. Right now, I'm using the "Beyer" method for practicing. I gradually realized that the Simply Piano app is not effective for me. Firstly, I don't enjoy the popular songs it offers, and secondly, my music reading skills are not improving. I also struggle with coordinating both hands, so I need to practice etudes.
During this period, I also watched several TV series:
- I rewatched "Steins;Gate." Everything is the choice of Steins;Gate.
- "Searching 2" is a movie with unique filming techniques. The entire film is presented through computer desktops and camera footage from computers or phones. The plot is also good. I recommend watching it.
- "Taxi Driver" Season 1/2 is an exciting drama that punishes evil and promotes good. When the public authority catches demons and colludes with them, is justice still justice?
