Shooting on film even though you don't really know what you're doing

sure your last roll was 4 years ago and it may have gotten sun exposed but this new roll has some neat shots

shooting on film

Sending your film out and waiting patiently for the moment when the negatives arrive and you get to look through the frames in the daylight. Even then, you aren't really sure what they'll look like when they're scanned in, but it's fun to recall the memories you may have forgotten about if the roll was in the camera for months before that. The final task of scanning isn't always fun, but it can be meditative in itself as you see each image come to life one by one.

digicams

i like carrying a digital camera whenever i go out because 1) it's so handy, like you can just put it in your pocket, 2) you get to have this vibe on your photos in an instant, and 3) there's this delightful, brief moment of waiting before you can post the photos you took, unlike being able to immediately access your phone's photos on insta for example. the process is just great, much like taking photos on film (but that's another rec)

junk journal

i've always kept receipts, packaging, tickets, and other similar things in a box. for memories and other stuff like that. most of the time, its tucked away in some corner of my closet. recently, a friend recommended to me that i should start a junk journal, and i did, and i think i've found a different way to perceive all of the different printed papers i have with me. the pieces of junk have found a soul.

actually saw it twice in cinemas because i just had this urge to see it again, and good god. everything was just.. terrific. from the cinematography to the sound design. i also didn't expect the soundtrack to work over some of the dialogue, but it did. how amazing. so electric. hot. fun. toxic. definitely a film i'll be coming back to from time to time. it lingers in all ways.. it's actually an experience (also tashi and art's scene with pecado playing in the background.. that moment i knew it was so over for me)
