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

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. :)

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

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
