8-28

Fianally, finally, we find our flat in woodgreen where we will move in next week . It's not a big place, but it is my home in UK.

As for reading, I begin to realize that finishing the whole book word by word is unrealistic and time-wasting, so what I have done is to pick some chapters I am interested in and try my best to understand.

Here are two phrases I pick out from my reading which I also have seen in other articles
divest one/oneself of sth: take away sb's power,rights,responsibility,etc
rid oneself of(a feeling, an idea ,ect)

sacred cow: sth can not be criticised or questioned. It's a kind of authority
