my experience and thoughts on journaling !!

(i think all ways of journaling are super cool, but i’m sharing what has worked best for me) do what you like !!

hello leaves, welcome back! i hope you’re having a wonderful day! today i’ll be sharing my thoughts on journaling

experiences

i have wanted to start journaling since 2021. i also wanted to keep a diary since maybe 2016, but idk if that counts. i hadn’t really been consistent, so stopped. i also tried digital journaling, but nothing seemed to work for me. i had seen people online with fancy journals filled with habbit trackers, weekly spreads and more. that is definitely cool, but i found out that this is not for me.

i enjoy making little entries once or twice a month physically now. it’s fun to make little spreads about my interests and thoughts. i make digital to do lists, which helps me to stay on track since the list would be on my ipad, which means i can’t avoid seeing it i guess.

thoughts

i think it is a fun hobby, and it can help you relive stress and unleash your creativity (similar to blogging). when you find the type that works for you, you’ll enjoy it and love it.

sorry if i sounded weird in this post. have a good day and thanks for reading !!! : )

story graph app review- rotw

hey! welcome back! sorry for the delay, i’ve been focusing on studying more lately, but here i am! today’s post is about an app, but before i get into this i just want to say when you’re done with this post GET OFF THE INTRENT AND DO SOMETHING IN YOUR LIFE THAT DOESN’T REQUIRE SCREENS. OK that was rude, but really, go hang out with your family, play with your younger sister, pray to Allah (i mean if you’re Muslim) read a book, go out for a walk, and if you can, invite a friend over, or come to their house.

ok so story-graph, is a book app in which you can add books to your to be read, books you read, your book goals, and look at other’s.
it’s really nice, and helpful.
you can even add books that aren’t in the app already

so this is why like it . i say four stars, just beacuse it doesn’t have the best security. but honestly, it’s really good, and you should install it.

thanks for reading dear besties!!

no thoughts, just pusheen// + dissuction questions

thoughts about the book

hii everyone!! today i’ll be reviewing the comic; “i am pusheen the cat,” surpisingly i have 4 cats like her. well, for me and my siblings. my youngest sister got pusheen, me and my other siblings got copies of her with diffrent colors.

i got an orange one and her name is toby. (when we were choosing, i orginaly wanted pusheen) anyways, i was looking for books to read; and i found “i am pusheen the cat.” i decided, cat comics sound fun. p.s. if you want to read cat comics aside from the book; check out this website (with merch!!) https://pusheen.com/category/comics/

aside from that, this book was a 30 minute one seating read. it was simply amazing, and honestly i 90% rec

i once was strong, loud and pretty. but there was i, lying movelessly as people watch my big fall. blood was everywhere. i never felt that weak. things never were like that. i was firce. but how quickly can the strongest fall? how quickly can the bravest cower? how quickly can the happy sob? i had no idea it was like that. i had so many things. but there was so much more i needed. time. immunity. friends. there was much i lacked. happiness. anger. but there was only sadness left. was anyone even bothering like i would to others? no one even came to my help. they just watched.
piper: that’s six lines.
inky: no. it’s just one word come on.

second place- the pool of thought’s entery

this one would’ve one the first place, but i felt like i didn’t like the main character much. and i felt like there was a little plot missing, other than that, it would’ve won. but i really like the story : )

first place- blue flamingo’s entery

the story was just so great~ i really liked it, and it was a great story. now i would say, the ending was something that i wasn’t going for, i was accally wanting to make Amelia the villian. :’ ) but tbh, i feel like i really liked the writting style, and the characters. i feel like even though they were side characters,it brought alot of interest in the story.

sorry for the bad quality

---

well that featured image really got pixled, thanks to instagrams image size. i have to admit it’s partly my fault, as i use a facebook cover for the image size. hii leaves~ it’s me inky! how are you doing? and welcome back to the circus with only one clown, and that’s me! *silnce* anyways, you read the tittle; let’s get into this!

so 2 days ago, me and my sister begged asked my parents to take us to the bookstore, and they finnally said yes; but we had to do our homework first. moving on, we go on a street, walk as creepy old men stare [i had to mention it as it can’t be norilized]. we get there, and we’re *blinded* by the options. i litterally had to set up my own set of options. each of us could get two, so i deciced to get the books below. and yes, i did take my time, didn’t i? oh yeah, before i get into the books: [me and my sister said we could take eachothers books, so i’ll be incuding hers]

my books~

all of these are gorgeous *sobs*. so i’ll be just talking about them, so the frist thing i’ve got here is the lost hero. i already finished reading it earlier today, so i’ll be making a whole review on it. if you wanna read it, i’m just telling you that it’s a series about another series made about almost the same characters, and you need to read percy jackson and the olympuions series first, and then heros of olympus. i think it’s a great book uwu. next, is seige and storm. it has a pretty cover, and i’m exicted to start reading it tommmrow! it seems so fun to read and it’s cover has a werid snake 🙂 also the darkling will be back, and it’ll be something :)) i’m really looking forward to reading it, since before the lost hero, i had been in a reading slump, but now i’m born ready.

my sister’s books~

both of these look pretty intersiting, plotwise and character wise. by the cover of ember in the ashes, i can tell there’s probaly gonna be a big war, that would be intersting! oh yeah, and a girl with a dagger :] yeah the book looks pretty enterating. so i’m so looking forward to reading turtles all the way down~ it’s apperantly about mental health, and that sounds pretty entertaning, so i’m *very* exicted to read all.

small life uptade-

i’m not saying i won’t upload soon, but if i don’t post for a day, don’t be surpised as i’m gonna start finnalls of the semster, and then i’ll have a i think few days break, and i’ll get into another semtester, so these like week or 2.

check out my november playlist

bye~

edit- i made a podcast eposide about 16 minutes ago:

---

hey leaves, it’s me inky! and welcome back to the cirus with one clown. and that’s me. *akward slince*** anyways, i’ll be showing some GORGEOUS BOOK COVERS THAT MAKE ME WANNA SPEND SOME MONEY,, but i’m too broke for that. :[

qotd: what is your fav genre of books?

so let’s show these covers off.

starting with the ones that came from the featured image, we’ve got one of my fice star reads- AGGTM. and then we have a july three star read, a curse so dark and lonely. next we have the second book to a duligoy that i dnfed [did not finish but like you quit]. lastly, we’ve got ledgend born, a book that i didn’t start

now i’ll get into their covers. for aggtm, i got the over copy of the cover; but ever since i saw this cover, i really wanna buy it again. it’s just so pretty, bringing up a good scence from the book. next, we’ve got this one. it was a little too long for me, but it’s cover keept me motivated. it was pretty, accarute and it’s specail edition is so pretty~ like i need it uwu. next, one of us is next. everything about it- pretty, colors- pictures. JUST EVERYTHING. lastly, legend born. the girl is so pretty, like the hair, the electric thing. it just makes me want to read it!

these covers sheeeeeesh

spolier alert- i read none of these lol. starting with the seven husbands of evenlyn hugo. it’s so prettyyyyyyy. like what???? the dress, the door EVERYTHING. shatter me. i’ve always liked eyeshadow, and eye looks. it feels like the eye is on clouds, yet iced. and like HOW. i’m obbessed now. i wanna read it but the series is soo long. :][ next we’ve got cinder. it looks really pretty. the heels are really pretty. how do these desigers do this to my poor eyes : ( lastly, we’ve got soc. it’s a good book, i know the plot; i just never read it. i love how it has a crow on the cover, like it’s so pretty.

so yes leaves, this is quite the end of this post. mAkE sUrE tO lIkE aNDsubCRIBLE tO tHiS cHanNeL!

byeee~ rember even if ur alone, im still here <33333

edit- also yes, i did low-key brighten the covers i guess. and this is an insipred post.

the last promt.

---

hey leaves, welcome back to sosoorna’s boring blog, simply a boring blog.

before i get into the promt, i’m giving you a typed intro *woooo*

so um yall, i only got one entry so if you’ve been nominated or not, do it anyways ifyou want so you can have a higher chance of a price. as i can’t make places with only one entry.

so here is the finall promt.

trigger warning- mention of blood.

you’re sitting at your local airport, crying your brown eyes out. you have to move accross countries without your friend, Amelia. you both have been friends for five long, happy years. you turn on your phone to text her that you’re at the airport, but she has texted frist.
“hi.” was what the text said, you repeat hi and you both text, while waiting for your plane. but something sounds werid with her tone, and she says she’s coming. you shake your head confused, how could she come? you arrvive at your plane, two mintutes later and on your seat, painted with blood it says “Amelia has been here.” how was she there? has she been stalking you? you text her anxiously, “what are you doing?” her message in reply is “yes”.

yes, another myserty thriller. i should really consider writting a mysertry. like most of these are horrorish, but to be fair it’s writting at 3AM. tbh it wasn’t bc of that, but we can just act like it was-~

anyways leaves, make sure to submit your amazing entries before tommrow, 6pm AST. or i might have to delay~

byeee~

edit- i finished uptading the homepage, so make sure to check it out~
