‘For years, there’s only been one passenger waiting at the Kami-Shirataki train station in the northernmost island of Hokkaido, Japan: A high-school girl, on her way to class. The train stops there only twice a day—once to pick up the girl and again to drop her off after the school day is over.It sounds like a Hayao Miyazaki film. But according to CCTV News, it was a decision that Japan Railways—the group that operates the country’s railway network—made more than three years ago. At that time, ridership at the Kami-Shirataki station had dramatically fallen because of its remote location, and freight service had ended there as well. Japan Railways was getting ready to shut the station down for good—until they noticed that it was still being used every day by the high-schooler. So they decided to keep the station open for her until she graduates. The company’s even adjusted the train’s timetable according to the girl’s schedule. The unnamed girl is expected to graduate this March, which is when the station will finally be closed.’

21.09.2020 | I finished personalizing my notion main page and it’s looking so good. Took me two whole days to fill up my pages and there’s still some incomplete things, like my library page and my writing space. Overall, it’s great and makes me want to be super productive. If you guys want, I can put up a template link 🥺☕✨

Some of the Notion covers that I made today. Actually quite happy with the outcome!  I do realise that there’s not really a nice theme going on, but hey…
