SAYING “I’M GONNA DROP OUT”
In place of “I’m gonna kill myself“ when frustrated. It’s a really small change and you probably won’t even notice the difference, but it’s a really easy way to start reframing bad self talk and it’s helped me feel better about myself overall.

improving myself
Whenever writing doesn’t help me cope anymore I obsess over changing my clothing style or my skin care routine or any habits that I wanna change in general like reading more or doing more exercise than usual. I must 100% believe that I’m improving though. Fake it till you make it type of way! It’s an easy, quick, and fairly healthy distraction from whatever is messing with my head.

Speaking positively to yourself
Sometimes (f.e. Before i go to sleep) I’ll just give myself a lil ted talk about how good/positive things are/can be and stuff I like about me or my life or whatever. It feels weird in the beginning but it feels great 🪂

Think of the changes you want to make as treats
When I stopped thinking about "fixing my life" and "getting disciplined" and started focusing on how nice I would feel in my clean room, how calm I would feel if I maintained my calendar, and how good I would feel eating 3 healthy meals, it became much easier. It feels like you are indulging in the good stuff rather than punishing yourself with it.

sun-catching ice
This week was horribly inconsistent in terms of weather, but spring is certainly fighting to warm things up. Even winter’s vestiges can’t help but display the promise of warmth and new life. The way the ice is melting and cracking in waves doesn’t hurt the eyes either. Despite the lack of greenery, there can still be growth.

LILACS
They have such a light but powerful scent. Instantly sends me on a nostalgia trip to my old elementary school where we used to have one right next to the softball diamond. It was always the meeting place for my close friend and I over recess when we‘d meet to discuss the novel we cowrote (Novel being generous). To me, they are creativity and first crushes incarnate.

KIMCHI FRIED RICE
Suuuuuper quick and easy to make. I like adding extra garlic and onion and either tofu or bacon depending on my mood. Extra gochujang paste and vinegar helps if you have limited kimchi juice, but I definitely recommend getting a big jar. Top with gim, sesame seeds, and a fried egg.
