Charlie & lola

• Pocoyo (taught me about drawing, space and perspective). • Scooby Doo. I feel like this show in particular is really old school in terms of it having no lore behind it. It’s the same pattern for every episode and I think it’s kind of like a Time Machine of what used to be for children’s shows. • American Dragon: Jake Long. Used to watch a lot before going to school. The plot was so enthralling. • The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy. Loved the dark humor incorporated into it. • Phineas & Ferb. Catchy songs, a platypus and humans with weird heads. •The Powerpuff Girls. Need I say more? Movies: • Anastasia (1997). Kickstarted my obsession with the Romanovs. Lead me to google wayyyy to young what had happened to Anastasia in real life. That was bleak. • Old Barbie movies. My favorites were The Princess and the Pauper, Rapunzel, Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus. Used to watch these all the time. They really incorporated the whimsy and made me want to live like a peasant in the medieval era under a monarchy. • Ella Enchanted (2004). • The Princess Diaries 1 & 2. • Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan and JLC (2003). • Hocus Pocus (1993).

as far as i can remember

okay im gonna go from the earliest movie i rewatched a lot and i think fairly had the most impact on me. im also fully aware that the childhood list is a bit wild bc my parents didnt regulate the kinds of movies i watched they pre much would just cover my eyes with their hands or a pillow whenever there are explicit scenes like kissing and sex even though i can fully hear the sounds but they mostly didnt care about gore and violence lmao. i did gravitate more towards movies that are appropriate for my age during pre-adolescence though... i think. early childhood: - dumbo - kill bill vol 1 & 2 - the princess diaries - romeo and juliet during elementary: - hannnah montana the movie - aquamarine - wild child - school of rock

The Parent trap (1998)

there were many movie obsession phases as a kid but i’m choosing this one because it was the first movie i could recite line by line for at least 30 minutes straight when i was 8 lol

Korean spas

I went to the Korean spa for the first time with my bestie last night and it was a profoundly nourishing experience on every level. we were having deep heart to hearts while schvitzing it out in the sauna and it felt like my soul was being cleansed. there are these tubs of different temperatures and this basin full of mugwort water with empty bowls so you can pour it over yourself, and all these magical heated rooms with different scents and properties. I also saw people carrying giant bottles of spa water with chopped mango and mint and they were like $20 each but they looked sooo good. next time I also want to go to the Korean restaurant inside and the tea room.

Reading magazines on libby

Libby is and forever will be THAT GIRL and I recently discovered you can subscribe to basically any magazine via the newsstand feature. I am really enjoying flipping through NYmag and trashy celeb mags like Us Weekly on my phone—it feels like all the guilty pleasure of scrolling though social media but infinitely more fun and less draining. I also like reading food mags and the New Yorker!
