a simple change that has added so much joy to my life as a reader and former pokemon obsessed child. i HATE dogearing my books -- i don't like how it looks or feels. Bookmarks are cool too don't get me wrong, but cards just add a little spice of personalization. Each book I read gets a different card that I think in some way relates to the themes/ideas/plot of the book. <3

i'm trying to get back into reading, as i haven't finished a book in years, and having cute things always makes scary or difficult things more enjoyable for me :)

recycle, get creative. anything can hold your page. buying a book mark is only acceptable at the scholastic book fair

the amc a-list is well-known gem, but it is really one of the best deals available, especially after the recent change they made to it. four movies a week! what! However I get sometimes you just have to go to the cinema on a budget, tickets can be expensive. STILL, support your local independent theater if you can!! at least around me there are multiple rep theaters (shoutout the coolidge theater in Boston and the Brattle in Cambridge) that constantly show old films and introduce classics to a new audience. I will die for these theaters, and I try to find a balance between using my a-list for new movies and seeing rep screenings at the indies! you can do both! I LOVE MOVIES!!!!

as both a movie and a physical media lover, starting a dvd/blue-ray/criterion collection and buying a blue-ray player was one of the best choices I've ever made. record stores, thrift stores, and other random places sell dvds of incredible movies for like 1 dollar each, so it makes it super easy to start a collection, and you have a physical watchlist to go through. I've also started buying criterion and I am in love with those, but they can be quite expensive so I do it sparingly, and only when there is a 50% sale which happens like 2-3 times a year. get off the streaming services and start watching your movies off a disc!!!
