  What do I want to flirt with this season? Not necessarily who . What. Maybe you want to flirt with a new version of yourself. A hobby you’ve been curious about. A color you’ve always thought wasn’t “you.” A different way of dressing. A city you’ve never explored. An idea that seems slightly ridiculous. A dream you aren’t ready to commit to yet. That’s the lovely thing about flirting. It doesn’t ask you to make promises. It doesn’t require a five-year plan or a carefully constructed list of goals. You don’t even have to know whether you want something permanently. You can simply move a little closer and see what happens. What catches your eye lately? What keeps appearing in the corner of your thoughts? What makes you think, Hmm. Maybe. Perhaps this season doesn’t need another commitment. Perhaps it needs curiosity. A little experimentation. Permission to try something simply because it delights you. So tonight, open your journal and ask yourself: What do I want to flirt with this ...

  I have a lot of stationery. (Remember that sack that arrived on Black Saturday?) Probably more than I need. Definitely more than I need. But I’ve stopped feeling guilty about it. Because somewhere between buying pretty pens, collecting stickers, and convincing myself that yes, I absolutely needed another tiny pad of paper, I realized something: I actually use them. Not all at once, of course. That would be chaos. Instead, I’ve started letting different pieces find their way into different pages. This Page, These Things This is one of my recent journal pages. For this spread, I used just three pens: a Zebra Sarasa Clip, a soft-colored marking pen from Daiso, and a Chosch Click Dot pen. I also used little grid paper pieces from a set of Daiso memo pads, along with a few stickers I had collected from KKV. Nothing particularly complicated. Nothing carefully coordinated beforehand. I simply chose what I felt like using and started putting things on the page. A little paper here. A sti...

It started with this I wasn’t planning on falling in love again that Tuesday afternoon. All I wanted was to check one thing off my to-do list: make a prototype for a custom client order. Something I hadn’t done before—something outside my usual rhythm. It was supposed to be quick. Functional. Done and dusted in an hour. But the moment my hands touched the lace paper, something stirred.

Hey, Glow Girls! Happy Monday if you're in the same time zone! I just want to catch you up on what's been happening in my life lately aside from my staycations and travels and curated shopping sprees.  Photo taken at Monet and Friends  That quote by Claude Monet is exactly what I've been feeling for the past few weeks. Yes, I'm exhausted. Sure, I'm burned out, but every day, I discover more and more things that I'm interested in, want to experience, want to buy, want to learn, want to share, want to write about, want to create, and so on.  Here are a few things I've been meaning to share with you.
