| 2 | There is a song inside of me that I have not sung in a while
It even is my favorite cause... well... it is mine
I have sung her tune
And I have sung theirs...
I have sung 'ours'
Even did thine
But these days I remembered there was a song that was just mine
(I need to sing that song)

| 3 | What writing is not: note to self
Reading: With a constant interaction with words it is so easy to feel like reading is but writing. Despite the similarity in the act, reading is not writing. It is the consumption of another’s writing. Reading multiple books might make one’s writing better but it is not writing.
Discussing books: Slicing ideas, discussing metaphors and allegories, finding patterns in another writer’s ways and relating them to one’s life is an important work. It is an intimate work. But it is not writing.
Talking about writing: Talking about struggling to write is a common thing to find support. One might find support but if one hasn’t written through that support it still is not writing.
Watching films and analysing: Another mimicry. As writers engage in such acts to help them in writing but also because it might as well be a peer’s work, it is very easy to fall into this trap. It is not writing.
Talking about publishing: Publish what?
In summary, being close to the fire but not jumping into it is not burning! Jump!
What writing is: Writing!

| 5 |  And today, the most special Friday in the entire history of the As Hannah Thinks Telegram channel 😊
No better day to officially announce this:
Yes, As Hannah Thinks is out now! 📖✨
Available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/08aZJ3By
This feels surreal. 🥹
There goes the very best of me, yet. | 327 |
| 6 | There is nothing more underrated than Indian cinema. Although I am not at all a cinephile I have seen people who identify as such and they talk about French cinema and Iranian cinema. Even films made in other languages. I follow videobet although I never got the chance to be there. I see their excellent movie recommendations and enjoyed some on my own when I got the chance. But Indian cinema! People think of bollywood when Indian cinema is mentioned but honestly excellent movies are made in languages that are not Hindi and outside Bollywood as well. Sharing this after the genius of Rituprano Ghosh on Chitrangada.
I am also back to studying Hindi. I realized my childhood self is my most authenthic self so embracing everything I used to do. I learnt the technique I use to learn reading is using something called sight words. So far, I know 'hai' 'naam' 'aurat' and things like that.
It is like how we used to watch the MBCs so much that we knew some arabic words and how they are written. Now I only remember 'no'... لا | 360 |
| 7 | ድሮ በሬዲዮ ከሀገር ውስጥ እና ውጪ ሆናችሁ የምታዳምጡ እናመሰግናለን ሲሉ ምን አመጣው ከሀገር ውጪን እል ነበር።
አሁን፣ አደረች አራዳ እያዳመጥኹ ሽመልስ እንደዚህ አላለም?

I made a friend through these rambles and rumbles. A literal friend. I am realizing they are archives of what my life has been and is becoming. Here is another one. Enjoy. | 224 |

| 14 |  My first memory of Birtukan Midekssa, I think, is just her waving to young people during the 1997th (2005 G.C) elections. Then a looming presence of boldness and defiance for 20 years. So many recounts of her bravery ever since I have known her. Yesterday was just another one of such. Birtukan Midekssa launched her first memoir መመለስ at Skylight hotel. What an honour to be there. Yet another witness that true politicians are made from our neighborhoods.

| 15 | ስለዘወትር
እማ ምን ይሰራልህ ብላኃለች። አባትየው እንጃ የሚጣፍጥ ነገር።
እኮ ምን?
በቃ የሚጣፍጥ ነገር።

| 17 | ልቤ ቢርድም የማያቸው በስስት ነው። የሀገሬ ልጆች ጸጉራቸውን እንዴት ያስይዛሉ? ምን ይለብሳሉ? የሚውሉት የት ነው?
የሀገሬ ልጆች እንዴት ያስፈራሉ? ለአላማ እንደተሰለፈ ሰራዊት።
ዛሬም ፍርፍር ይወዳሉ? አዳም ረታንስ? ጠዋታቸው ምን ይመስላል? ምሽታቸውስ?
ላያቸው እጓጓለሁ። ልነካቸው እቋምጣለሁ። የሚፈሩት እና የሚወዱት ታቦትን እንጂ ሀገርን ነውን?
