I wake up to my initial alarm, then immediately set another alarm for 30 minutes after that. For those 30 minutes, I can do anything I want except look at my phone. This is my first week test running this but for the few days I’ve done this I’ve had a full and productive morning and end up using my phone less in general.
10/10 would recommend

For the first time in a while I’ve gotten up when I‘ve hoped to. No looking at my phone. Just up and at em.

i’ve got this little red book that i carry around on me always that is an old vintage hardcover converted into a journal. any time i find myself feeling something unpleasant, getting a cool sticker, seeing a great movie, or just wanting to write i go straight to my little red book. growing up, i was never taught to express my emotions but 24 years later and a lot of life experience has taught me that it‘s okay to do so and you should have a space to do that safely. i hope you all find your little red books

recently, my girlfriend left for a study abroad and most of my ffriends are on holiday break away from NY. therefore, i have just been in this cycle of working and eating and sleeping. these past few days, i've made it my mission to get something done before i leave for work. whether that is taking out the trash or getting a croissant, i just have to have done an activity that requires me to leave my bed before my next shift. who'd-a-thunkit, i actually feel a little bit better every time i do this! i feel like i am making sense of the time that i have and i find great pride in being intentional about my joy. to more days like these, my lovelies

Started reading Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi today. I’m only like 50 pages in but it’s so whimsical and imaginative, I feel as though it will break my heart by the end. This also feels like a book I’m going to read to my kids one day during bedtime. Loving it so far!
