COLLAGED MEMORIES

i can almost never bring myself to dispose of old media, clothes etc. it's kinda selfish and clutterish maybe but i cut out tags and make collages of old stuff to paste in my journal and keep a piece of them before disposing.
A bit patch from a shirt that doesn't fit anymore? An empty matchbook from an electric night? Show program from a band you saw in a foreign city? I have a transit fare citation in mine. It's all game and it's a great way to preserve memory. I put mine in my journal so I don't have to write shit down.

Journal lovers

You keep a diary/junk journal/whatever
Next time you visit a perfume store, keep the little scent card and stick it to your journal.
It looks so pretty especially with washi tape 😍

notebooks

the first thing i pick up when traveling. i try to fill them up as much as possible over the course of the trip with anything/everything ranging from ticket stubs, stickers, drawings, descriptions of people, addresses, etc. it's a fun way to chronicle where i've been.

My year of rest and relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh

I hated this book when I first read it. I thought it was absolutely ridiculous. And yet, more than five years later, I still find myself thinking about it. No other book has illustrated my particular brand of depression better. Sometimes you just want to exit for a bit.

painting by numbers as an antidote for grief, existential angst, and general malaise. Best designs on the market are from cloudhouse4ever.

The best bars in tokyo and Osaka are up nondescript stairwells in places that look like parking garages or someone’s apartment building.
