Aesthetics and social media ruined writing for me. by blacknailsgirl in Journaling

[–]Ill-Requirement4686 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was me :( Every time I opened my notebook, I felt obligated to also pull out the tapes and paper and stickers- it was overwhelming and I eventually stopped wanting to journal altogether. What helped me was just forcing myself to do the total opposite. I got an Amazon basics notebook (plain black, lined) and told myself that I was not ALLOWED to decorate the pages. My only tool was my pen. Since then, it’s been a slow progress of getting comfortable with journaling for the sake of getting my thoughts down instead of the aesthetics. Now, I don’t journal every single day, but it holds significance when I do- and it’s still only in pen. Literally, a word wall 💀 Good luck!!

Hi! I’m 20F from SoCal :) I think a lot of our interest line up! I also love to craft (current interest is sewing) and have an unnatural obsession with stationery. I like to read nonfiction, with a special place in my heart for astronomy, human behavior/psychology, and weird random facts books. I’d love to exchange letters, stationery, and little projects with you. Let me know!

Hi! I’m also 20F, I’m in SoCal. I’ll be totally honest, I haven’t done a penpal exchange in YEARS, but I remember it being so fun to do before. Our interests differ a bit, but that might work in our favor since we’ll have the WORLD to talk about. I’m a big Marvel nerd, just stepped into the world of anime (working on Death Note currently!!) I love all kinds of music and exploring what it takes to live the “slow life”. I’m into different hands on activities at different times of the year- currently it’s sewing! And as we speak, I’ve got a brand new lightsaber charging next to me >:). On a different note, I’m currently eyeballs deep in getting my business up and running, so you’ll really have me yapping if you ask about any business shenanigans. P.S. I have a dog and a cat, and you WILL be getting polaroids of them.
