Journalling tips for beginners (❁´◡`❁)

 Journalling is fun and a relaxing way to unwind after a long day!  You can jot down feelings, the weather, what you did, and whatever you feel like saying!   Here are some tips to get you started.

1.  The proper journal/diary: Your journal does not have to be fancy, however, I usually try to pick out aesthetically pleasing journals just because I find them better to write in 😊.  I also personalize my journals by putting stickers or doodling on the cover.  

2. How to start:  You can just start writing by putting the date and the weather then write about your day.  If you prefer, you can begin your entry by writing "dear diary."

3.  Example entry:  Here is an example entry that I wrote for this blog:

Saturday, January 7, 2023

Dear Diary,

Today it is cloudy and gloomy outside.  This morning I went shopping and bought some groceries.  I plan on doing some artwork after dinner today.  I am still mad at Rhea for dropping the tray down the stairs.

4.  The digital option:  although I personally prefer writing my entries on paper, you can also have an online diary!  Here are some links:

My favorite aesthetic google fonts

  Are you a person like me who uses Google docs, Google slides, or Blogger a lot?  If so, you might be getting tired of the same old regular font so I made a list of my favorite cute and aesthetic Google fonts! Indie flower:  Indie flower is a font that gives me kind of handwriting cartoon aesthetic vibes and I like using this font for titles or subheadings. Coming soon:  Coming soon is a clear and easy-to-read but cute font.  I like using this font for printables as it is easy to read for kids. Short Stack:  This font is much like Coming soon but bolder and this font gives me fun and happy vibes.  A great font to use for writing a presentation or schedule. Shadows into light:  The font gives me handwritten letter vibes and it is just a nice classic rustic style font. Shadows into light 2: Shadows into light 2 is just the same style as shadows into light but bigger and bolder.  Amatic SC:  This font is very light and the letters are very...

Book review: One of us is lying by Karen M. McManus

  This book has been on my GoodReads "want to read" list for a while so it was both satisfying to finally get it off my list but it was also a very thrilling and twisting mystery novel.  In this book, each character has their own section which I found kind of neat to see each of the perspectives of the characters and how different their personalities and lives are.  I would recommend this book for young adults 13 and up as it does have some coarse language and some mature circumstances and scenes.  The main characters in the book are Bronwyn who is an intelligent girl who comes from a family of Yale graduates, Cooper who is an all-star baseball player, Addy who is known at Bayview high as being popular and beautiful, Nate who is already on Probation for dealing drugs, and Simon who is the creator of the gossip app About That.  The five of them end up in detention and by the end of detention, Simon is dead.  This book made me feel a lot of emotions at one po...
