Thereās so many bubble tea spots in Chinatown but this one is by far, the best. Get the passion fruit tea iced, with mango bubbles, twenty percent sugar. Bring cash.

banh mi place in prospect heights!!! their tofu banh mi sandwich is literally heavenly. the tofu is so fluffy. i didnāt love their garden rolls personally but their non-veg rolls may be good. order ahead if ur picking up bc they can get super busy :)
also banhmigos in park slope!! their mushroom banh mi sandwich is good. i canāt remember which i liked better but the tofu and veg rolls are reallyyy good. also definitely get a bubble tea because they have sooo so many options! and their service is usually really fast!

felt the same way, was sick of it. got a flip phone i could slip my sim card into, activated it. first two weeks i was kind of itching for the smartphone and the little dopamine hits. after a while things started changing. i started reading for fun again, my attention span improved significantly, i carried a little journal everywhere to jot down my thoughts. in every room where everyone was on their phones, i felt like i was the only person actually present, paying attention. i found so many beautiful ways to fill the time. strangers praised me for my bravery lol. when i had to drive or go somewhere i didnāt know how to get to i would write down the directions on a post it note and carry it or stick it to the dashboard. you will literally feel smarter for relying on your brain to figure things like this out instead of being on autopilot all the time. you can carry your smartphone around to use as an ipod/pocket camera and in an emergency it will still work on wifi. i asked friends to look things up for me (business hours, weather, traffic, phone numbers) when i was out and about. if people texted me id tell them to call me if they wanted to talk. it was a great decision that only ended bc i did an extended trip abroad where i needed my phone to get by, but i am going to go back to the flip again soon. i highly recommend! nothing compares to flipping a phone shut to hang up a call. it taught me how to enjoy true solitude again. do it!!!

after being raised in a context where you were taught to be hard on yourself, leaning into self-compassion as a way of life in adulthood is truly powerful. hold yourself accountable and give yourself grace when you flounder, both are needed.

āwow i am in so much pain, i feel so ALIVEā
āi am grateful to know that i have loved, truly lovedā
āmay i never grow too guarded to feel into the depths of my soulā
āall my favorite artists have felt this feeling, i am bound by heartbreak to my fellow humansā
āthis grief is a process of me returning to myselfā
if all else fails, watch the clip from call me by your name where the dad talks to his son about heartbreak (linked)
keep a journal, be patient, show yourself as much compassion as you possibly can
