It cost $2 at a market. Itās gigantic, soft, and orange. I canāt explain why, but it just makes me happy. The color is so bright and itās so fluffy. Sometimes, the little things count.

I saw the ćŗćććććć¦ signs and wanted one so badddly. My friends said to just take it, but I couldn't. I asked shyly. The sweet painter gave me the rest of his pad!!
I added it to my art projects. It feels warm, my small treasured memory.
I met someone who immediately wanted my tote bag, too. It feels amazing to meet someone who *gets it*, what I'm making so quickly. (ā§ā”ā¦) ā” (āā½ā)ā”

Lately anxiety is not helping much, and Iām constantly drained due to exams coming up.
I miss my family. I miss myself.
This made me reflect on the fact that Iām still here, and alsoā¦we are such precious creatures. We diminish ourselves, but everything we touch we influence. We are way more powerful than we think we are.
Anyway, letās see what we have here:
ā¢ a fraction of āTHE wallā: from left to right two postcard I bought last summer at the MusĆ©e des Beaux Arts in Bruxelles (āGeorgetteā by Magritte, a pic of Magritte himself, on the bottom a quote I found in a fortune cookie, then a quote I found in a āBacio Peruginaā a chocolate treat that is very well known here in Italy, on top of Magritte two Js as you can see (this is a CRAZY story), then on a post-it a quote of a thing I wrote in a sort of essay, then a poem that my best friend wrote for me, another fortune biscuitās quote, a post-card from a place in Italy called āSacro Boscoā (Sacred Wood, also know as āParco dei Mostriā = Monsterās Park), itās an old black and white photo of a young boy grazing the sheep š), two more post-its (one from roomies one from my mom). Yes I have a thing for post-itsā¦
ā¢ books I started and I never get the chance to finish because of uni (I really recommend though āWhatever arises love thatā by Matt Kahn aaaand to start educate urself on Palestine (if you havenāt already started you should, itās great) āMornings in Jeninā by Susan Abulhawa)
ā¢ Abat-jour, lamp, whatever you call her, with a ānecklaceā (bracelet I made with my granny when I was little, my wrist grew so the lamp suits it better as a lovely necklace), on top a sleep mask.
ā¢ a notebook (I love it, the red one), on top my two pairs of reading glasses.
ā¢ Forest green water bottle (very used, but I love her)
ā¢ A ceramic jewellery holder, which was of my beloved grandmother, with jewels I inherited from her š„ŗ
ā¢ a thing I use to store my bangles and bracelets (my little treasure, theyāre all vintage/inherited)
ā¢ one of my thousands of candles (I donāt know why they ease my anxiety) and mini Corto Maltese (in my opinion a masterpiece in the world of comic-strips) themed matches.

Going around the city and finding little cool things makes me feel a little more special.
Hereās one that I found on a random wood table while having a deep talk with my friend. One of the best ones so far!

It is seriously the most soothing activity. Itās simple, itās gentle, it smells good, it feeds your friends and makes them happy. If youāre feeling low, I truly and deeply recommend getting a pan out and some crushed tomatoes and just slowly making a simple tomato sauce and slap it on some spaghetti. Your heart will feel grateful.

Free on Tubi until the end of the month.
A bare indie film from 1998 starring young Toni Colette and a restrained, but peRfEcT Parker Posey - about four girls temping in an office, who find their budding dynamic disrupted by the appearance of an anonymous office thief !
Anyway, I weirdly love it. Itās stranger than it should be allowed to be - and funnier - a good comfort watch.
None of us really spend our time in bland corporate office environments anymore, so it's funny and a bit deranged to remember back to when 9-5 was the premiere terror of all creative independent minds.
