joys of escapism ⚓
books, planner, journals, fountain pens.
If you go into journaling is immediately like “It’s not working! It’s not changing my life!” after like a week? You need to look deeper into yourself.

Completed my first ever solo journaling RPG and I went “Damn.” since it got dark pretty quick 😂 But I enjoyed it! I also got to practice my tarot reading with it.

🌟small things i accomplished for 2026 january

• journaled every. single. day. (did not achieve this last year)
• low phone screen time (2 hours max a day; mostly for deliveries and orders 🥲)

• crossword puzzles (i feel stupid tho lmao)

I didn’t know that there are a loooooot of book trackers now? 👀 I’m still with StoryGraph though I found Margins cute but it’s not compatible with my really old iPhone so I guess not.

I don’t really have an opinion on “vibe coding” because I don’t code but damn… seeing app slops and plugin slops is so ???????? It’s like the flooding of ai slop on indie publishing but tech 😅 do we REALLY NEED all these?

I am so glad I made a switch to a Hobonichi Original. I wrote on every single page this month 🥲 I did not achieve that last year. This feels so right and I’m loving it so far.

I have things in my mind that you’ll never see posted on my socials. Sure some things are the same sentiments from most people but, I will not play around with my digital footprint like that. My stupid ramblings that I don’t believe in anymore might hunt me 20 years later and ruin my life 😂

bought tons of stickers… now i’m kinda overwhelmed by them

I’m very much enjoying my time with my little notebooks. Downsizing from A5s to A6s feels right at this point of my life. I’m not getting lazy to open my journal anymore.

NEW PEN DAY YAY! I’ve been waiting for this Espresso one to be restocked for soooo long. This is my first TWSBI fountain pen, and I get it now.

i realized that having a venting journal did me more harm than good. i need to work on that.

but it is a great way for my older self to check if i matured or got stuck. that's how i basically realized how my 16 year old self is so full of herself thinking she knows shit.

the last substack entry that I have was my 2025 techo kaigi. and the next one might be my 2026 techo kaigi 😂 i though i was able to write this year, unfortunately, life happened. try again next year.
December 24, 2025 at 8:47 AM
Yeah. I think I'm already maxed out with the pens, inks, and journals. I need to really restrict myself to only buy new ones after I finished or filled out one. It would be difficult, but I need to persevere! 😅
October 11, 2025 at 2:54 AM
It’s so goddamn pretty. NEW PEN DAY!!!! 🖋️🥰 I have no regrets but I need more self-control in the future 😅
October 10, 2025 at 7:46 AM
So... I bought a Pilot Vanishing Point in the 18k gold nib because I panicked when I saw that it's the last one in stock from my local shop and I remembered Pilot is discontinuing it 🥲
October 7, 2025 at 11:39 PM
Both of my Hobonichi planner and SkullPanda arrived at the same day. 🥰
September 8, 2025 at 7:24 AM
I already made up my mind that I won’t be buying my Hobonichi stuff on release day today but… the cover that I like is still available on my local store and it’s just sitting there… staring at me 😅
September 1, 2025 at 5:50 AM
I didn’t know that Hobonichi store also carries VersaMagic stamps? 🫣 Now I’m even more tempted to buy directly from the site.
August 22, 2025 at 11:37 AM
Currently agonizing with my 2026 journaling line up due to a whole lot of failures this year (i.e. Hobonichi TR-S paper issues) 🥲
August 21, 2025 at 3:53 AM
WAIT WHAT IT’S ALREADY HERE??!?! OMG
Introducing Bases, a new core plugin that lets you turn any set of notes into a powerful database.

Now available to everyone with Obsidian 1.9!

i am so screwed... this is literally my aesthetic. oh dear.
August 13, 2025 at 2:52 AM
Glad to hear about the improvements for TRP Sanzen paper on Hobonichi but I will still wait until December-January before buying my 2026 Weeks 🫣 had to get confirmation from my fountain pen enthusiasts first before I make a decision.
August 12, 2025 at 3:22 AM
I realized that I have a completely different handwriting font when using fountain pens vs. gel pens. I don’t mind it mostly but there are times when my brain would just point it out then the perfectionist demon would just whisper some dumb shit 😂 (it’s a problem i know LMAO)
