“i don’t like writing about my day, but i want to keep a journal”:

quotes and copywork. when reading, if you find something you enjoy, just copy it into the notebook. you can copy a whole chapter if you wish, highlighting what caught your attention the most.

definitions. look up on a dictionary and copy it. you could write your own dictionary as well, making up definitions for words.

lists. a classic, write movies to watch, books to read, the playlist of the month or just the groceries you have to buy.

maps. when going somewhere, you could draw the route you took or just a map of the place itself. just look up the place on google maps and copy it. you can draw a little map of all the places you have lived or the schools you have attended as well.

photos

take “notes” as you watch movies / documentaries. write down phrases that caught your attention or doodle.

illustrations and clippings. if you see an image or piece of art that you liked, put it in your journal. if it’s from a book or from a magazine I would recommend scanning it, tho’. it will serve as a record of what kind of art you enjoy through the years.

newspaper clippings from the day.

tickets and pamphlets. from movies, museums, transportation.

postcards

records. you could record for a month what the temperature was when you woke up and when you went to sleep. if you do that for a year, it gives you a better notion of the passing of seasons. you could record rainfall and other seasonal changes as well. you could choose something (an animal, a plant, an item or object) and write down every time you see it.

rubbings of leaves, coins, landmarks.

count. there’s a scene in the movie Coraline (2009) where Coraline’s dad tells her to go count the windows. you could do the same type of counting game if you are bored and write down.

mindmaps/sketchnotes + timelines of books, movies, music albums.

collages

pressed leafs and flowers

your collections. if you collect anything you could write down an inventory or maybe try to draw the items.

recipes. write down recipes and give it a score every time you try it. you could do the same for drinks you try out.

stickers

comic strips. you can find a bunch of it online, glue your favorites in your notebook.

I WOULD BE INCREDIBLY HAPPY IF PEOPLE WOULD STOP SAYING THAT THE DURSLEYS WERE MEAN JUST BECAUSE HARRY WAS A FU#%

I love her so damn much.

I think the funniest dynamic for arranged-marriage royalty would be a queen who came here 100% prepared to murder her future husband and rule as a widow queen in her own right, only to discover that the king is autistic as hell and responds to her wish to rule with "oh thank god please do, I don't want to be bothered by these people. I can just tell them to go bother you instead, if you really want that. I've got beetles I wanted to study."

Sometimes I’m like “I wish I was pretty like that” but I’m pretty like me so who cares

Bedtime

- Before I started reading fanfics «I’m going to bed» meant that I was going to sleep.

- Now «I’m going to bed» is actually fanfiction and Tumblr time!

You aren’t faking if some days you struggle less than others. You aren’t being overly dramatic if some days are worse than others.

It’s normal for things to fluctuate and you are equally valid whether it’s a good day or bad day or somewhere in between.

If you were only allowed to eat salad for the rest of your life... (for arbitrary reasons) what five things would you try to convince people is salad! Go!

In no particular order:

1. Potato salad should count. It’s got salad in the name.

2. Salsa is a tomato based fruit salad, and tortilla chips are but an especially flat crouton.

3. If salsa counts, then so should chunky guacamole.

4. Smoothies are effectively deconstructed fruit salad.

5. Chicken salad, for the same reason as potato salad.
