I have a bunch of fun charms (mobile charm from a temple recently, Riddler coin in my wallet, a prosperity bead bracelet from an Indigenous artist in Taiwan, etc. etc.) but the most permanent one is the silver pendant my mum made me wear as a child and I literally never take it off except for those chest x-rays, it feels very odd to do so, I feel kind of naked without it.

I have worn both since childhood as protective jewelry. I had to go a few months without the coin bracelet though because I forgot it at the jeweller's when it was being repaired and I flew out the countryโ€“cue the worst few months of my life yet. I don't take the pendant off ever, unless I need to do an X-ray.

it was my great-aunt's, and she gave it to my mum, who gave it to me when i was 12. i have never willingly taken it off, it has broken a few times, but i have retrieved all the shells and strung it back together. i feel naked without it, and you can see it in every single picture i've taken since i was young. it's funny to tell people how long i've had it on for.

both have deep meaning to me. my ring is one i took from my partner (teehee). i love it so much, its a wide silver band with a leaf print engraved all around it. it never leaves my hands, its like a promise ring to me and means so much :) and then i have my necklace which is actually matching w my partner. theyre tarot card necklaces that i got for us on our first christmas together. i have the star and they have the moon. sometimes we swap but otherwise my necklace is on me constantly. i dont feel dressed without these ๐Ÿ˜ญ

it's totally cool to age and society still isn't equipped to deal with that.

Sometimes you try your best and everything seems to hit the fan no matter how much you try, so you take that raincheck and take yourself out for a day.

This is what I call it hahahah made by mums everywhere but the greased up version is sold along stalls in Mumbai. Two regular slices of white bread, buttered, and the middle filling is cream cheese with red onions, coriander/cilantro, tomatoes and some minced chillis. All veggies chopped mini cube size so they blend with the cheese. Toasted crispy.
