I’m slowly making my way through Who Rules the World. Honestly, the story is just okay, but I keep watching because Zhao Lusi is so pretty. 😍 I’ve talked to other people who are watching it for the male protagonist, Yang Yang, so I guess I’m not alone in my reasoning. ✨

Three months into my Hobonichi Techo A6 and still really enjoying it. 📓

Writing small has been a challenge, but I’ve slowed down and started paying more attention to how I form my letters. It’s a different kind of writing than my morning pages, which stay big and loose since that’s all about getting thoughts down fast.

The slow, deliberate approach has been a nice surprise. Turns out I like it a lot.

I finally settled into a journaling layout that feels right. 📓 The left side tracks the day’s timeline, the right side gets a few short notes. Top left is for the day’s high and low temps, and top right has a checklist for tracking my language learning.

I keep tweaking things here and there, adding icons with a stencil or pasting in little bits of ephemera. I’m having a lot of fun with it!
