Obvious but necessary. For me: makeup / pen and pencil organization. Cute & brain-soothing.
The large clear target ones are great for holding little chocolates. Side rec: candy dishes for easy holiday cheer and accessible sweets (could go full grandma inspired with some werther’s).
Celestial, whimsical, kitschy or Persian—call me Pandora, but I love my little trinket boxes. Whether they house q-tips, rubber bands, postcards, or hopes and dreams, there’s a world of possibilities in having a place within a place.
tried reading dante alighieri’s inferno. key emphasis on tried. i got bored and realised a story written in poem form is not my typa beat.
i tried because it seemed like what all the indie hipsters who are well versed would read, and that i would look cool and niche—but it just cost me $25.
i prefer crazy detailed paragraphs rather than a line by line story.
anyways
saying “i’m sick” when you’re sick is boring.
instead, here are some more funky fresh and cool ways to disclose that your immune system has been highjacked (it’s time to revive these sayings from the dead!):
“i am indisposed”
“i am taken ill”
“i am feeling out of sorts”
“i am suffering from a bilious attack”
“i have been seized by an ague”
“i am afflicted with a malaise”
“i have taken to my bed”
“the vapours have overcome me”
“i have a touch of the influenza”
“the rheumatism plagues me”
“i am laid low with a fever”
“i am afflicted with a troublesome ailment”
you’re welcome
