I got like 5 decks of card but it has been so long since the last time I touched it:(. I used to be so into card trick to trick my friends and teachers. Of course, I did not take any course other than Youtube but I still could do some awesome tricks.
I don't play too much game these days but sometimes a bit of it would blow some steams.
The "G hour" is the first book I ever read from Agatha Christie which is also the first book I ever read seriously and consciously. A 14-year-old reading all the creepy, horrify criminal-filled books, what can he get? Nothing much I would say. But it did richen my imagination. I used to dream I could be Poirot's partner or even a spectator to witness Poirot's wit, delacy in not only solve criminal case but also real life: the ability to pay attention to small details, to read people mind, to be empathy. Yes, it is about people and their mind, sounds like a psychology books. All in all, Agatha Christie has contributed to a part of me, of my mind.
You may be more familiar to Sherlock Holmes by Conan Doyle. But for me, Sherlock Holmes is a bit old in its literature style while Poirot's stories being more close to the current life. I may have only read about 5-6 books but then the stories always get me despite how familiar I am to hers style.
