new food entries and observations, plus I cleaned up my most recent diary entry a lil!

your food looks so yummyy

@tabi ahhh you're so sweet, I'd love to cook for you! ♡

really enjoying reading your observations so far! the one about your cat was simply lovely ;u;

@beyondthesky thank you so much, hope you enjoy the ones that comes next! It's sooo endearing when he does that, it makes my heart swell in the best way ;u; ♡♡

gosh all that food looks so scrumptious, especially that stir fry!!

@kiley it's definitely a highlight reel of sorts, but thank you so much! I wish I could share a plate of it with you, it really did turn out deliciously! (づ๑•ᴗ•๑)づ♡

Can't wait to see that art gallery! The cashew chicken stir-fry looks yummy... You didn't come across as navel-gazey at all in your diary entry either btw, aging and change are things we all have to deal with. I find that I'm in a much better place than my teens as well. Isn't it funny how people hype up high school as the peaks of our lives? It's nice just to grow tired of what people think and grow more and more-

confident as we grow older... ANYWAYS IK that entry was from a couple days ago, but rest up!

Amy, I always look forward to your kind and thoughtful replies, thank you!! You're totally right about it being funny, and it's true! A few days ago some friends and I were also talking about how this can happen in college/uni too, where they're so hyped up that you feel like you're doing something "wrong" if you're struggling with mental health or anything else--I certainly was!

Life and my feelings towards myself are only continuing to go up from here! But thank you again for the well wishes, I feel more energized since writing this for sure! ;w; ♡♡

There's a new corner in my writer's block. Inspired by @vashti, I'm challenging myself to let "the real pour in" by writing 10 direct observations per week. I wanted to keep this space simple to reflect the assignment! ❀ https://inkcaps.neocities.org/studio/writing/observations/

... writer's block lol, I meant to say nook. Talk about a Freudian slip (￣▽￣*)ゞ

i love vashti's observations page, so excited to read yours too!!

I may jump on this bandwagon myself! Such a great exercise.

@tabi Vashti's page was like love at first read so I knew I had to give it a go! ;u; ♡♡

@chey you SHOULD, it's a super clever concept that's quite effective!!

Quick diary entry about what I've been up to! I'm hyped to be back and working on my site again!! ;u;

excited to see your art gallery when it's ready!!

thank you @jeith, I'm gonna start doodling some layout ideas! I'm a little shy sharing my artwork, but it'll be fun connecting with others in that way! <3

woah busy week! can't wait to see what you created!

@tillie it was TOO busy at times, but ahhh yay, thank you!! I can't wait to see what you think!! (づ๑•ᴗ•๑)づ♡

Happy belated birthday! I was worried about entering my 30's as well but I can tell you with confidence they are miiiileessss better than my 20's lol. Hopefully it will be the same for you <3 wishing you health after getting over the 'vid.

Ahhh can't wait to see your paintings! Love what you said about confidence coming with age. I'm also approaching my 30s and I feel a little scared but mostly so excited for them! There's something so chic about being 30 someting.

@amy thank you for the well wishes, they mean a lot!! ; __ ; Almost all of my loved ones in their 30s share similar sentiments which is super encouraging. I'm going to make the most of being 29 and be excited for what comes next! :D Take care!! ♡♡

@chey that's a great attitude to have, treating it as something chic--because you're right, there is! There's nothing more stylish than self-confidence, right?? At least for me, it's pretty amazing to see how far I've come in just the last three years even, in ways that can only be achieved from time and growth and learning ♡

I guess Neocities is pushing the most recently updated page out first?? ANYWAY, I added a quick review to the 1982 proshot of Sweeney Todd, cleaned up my last diary entry a bit, and most significantly, updated my character wall!! https://inkcaps.neocities.org/library/characters/

nice work on getting through the semester!! your talk of thin places was so interesting– certain religious sites i'd visited over the last few months definitely felt a bit "thin", so to speak!

@kiley thank you so much, it's a little surreal almost being at the end but here we are! I'm so glad you found my diary entry interesting as well. ;w; Those sites you visited must have been beautiful--would love to hear more about them sometime!! ♡

I'm trying to think of thin places I have been - hmmm the woods at night when it's really dark. I don't really consider new orleans to be one - there's a lot of life there for sure. Unless there's a hurricane. Like the eye of a hurricane is definitely a thin space

@mutterbutter the eye of the hurricane must be the most surreal place to be. I've always been fascinated by stories of those who found themselves in the middle of it, where everything's calm but they see the storm raging all around them

We're getting esoteric in Sarahland, babey!! Do any of you have experiences with the concept of "thin places?"

( But the REAL question is if I'll be up to coding/designing proper list CSS for my diary entry instead of dashes)

OH, and I gush a bit about the original stage production of Into the Woods in my media log. That show really makes me unlock my final form lol ;u;

Do you ever get thin place vibes in non-organic spaces? Like bathrooms? Ever watch dead mall videos?

@amy I've definitely got those vibes from stage theaters before! Something about them feel so electric. I loooveeee dead mall/abandoned place videos, they're fascinating haha!

Cleaning up some pages~
