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.
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 π
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.
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.
