I love this; definitely getting some major inspo!! :-) also, I hate to be that person and ask, but at 1:43, the washi strip at the top of the petsmart card, where's that one from? And then the black&white puppy sticker below the "beware of dog" sticker too! They both look like my dog and it's so rare to find any stationery that looks like him <3

I have a dog. She is a little shi tzhu/maltese. I wish I would have thought of doing this as she is our little baby girl. May have to start one now even though she is already 8 but I can backdate it a little.

Your videos are so much fun! :) So puce does mean brownish-pink like you thought; some people use it to mean a green (and they usually mean a stronger green than this ink, more like a "pea soup" kind of colour) but it's really unclear where that usage comes from. So weird! At least it's a pretty ink. :)

Yep, it's a fine nib, but it's very wet so it writes like a medium nib compared to other brands. It's a beautiful pen, but sometimes I wish it was a little bigger, like an M800. Those are super expensive though. The nice thing about the hobby is there are some great entry level pens. Unfortunately, it's a slippery slope from there...😅

I don't get to my media journal on time so ...I have a cheater notebook. Messy lists of my non-youtube media consumption and book reviews as I finish them. I don't write a lot for any book (several to a page in my "real" journal) but copying over what I felt when I finished it feels nice. If I wait a month or more the commentary is similar to "MC did a thing that annoyed me, merry band of friends redeemed book, ending was plot armor riddled tidying." That makes no sense a year later lol
@AsToldbyJoey
@AsToldbyJoey 3 ай бұрын
A cheater notebook is a great idea! I tend to write a few lines on scrap paper to remind myself what I want to journal about later. I find it especially hard to write reviews on books that are only okay. If I don't feel strongly about it one way or another, I have little to say. Now you have me wanting to start a journal on the TV and movies I watch. As if I need another one! lol

@@AsToldbyJoey Mine all go in the same notebook! I've got TV, Movies, Podcasts and Video Games as categories alongside Books. A lot of what I write is more about my feelings than the media. For a few months my partner and I watched a sitcom at dinnertime. Dinner and a show is our routine anyways, but seeing that we lasted months on one show was really something to appreciate. Sometimes we'll start a show and by episode 3 I peace out. Documented! lol It really is an entirely different beast than a reading journal but I highly recommend.
