my personal thoughts about myself. your thoughts about yourself. keywords: fulfillment, the journey, self-care, discipline

I feel my soul beginning to entwine with /humankind and I'm not sure how healthy that is..
I’m painting poker chips with the blackest black paint in the world. They’re not quite dry yet but this is the first coat.

For a few months now I’ve wanted to do an art project with a poker set but I was having trouble thinking of themes. The theme of the set is stolen colours.

Since anish kapoor (the guy who made the bean in Chicago) patented vantablack for his exclusive use, another artist Stuart Semple got mad and made a competitor, “the blackest black in the world”, which I have here. This is the first layer, I will be doing more layers after this first layer dries. Stuart steals colours from other artists and corporations and sells them to consumers like me.

I also have Klein blue, which I will be using shortly after I finish with the blackest black in the world.

I got a free drink because the barista
said she likes my cinnamoroll plushie ☺️☺️
She may not like it, but she is very much like me.
She worries, cares, and gets depressed about things that others surely don't bother with.

Sometimes I am very concerned that she is trying too hard.

What you are going through now by trial and error will surely be your experience.

I think when you get a little older, you too can live a little easier. Because I am.

I felt like telling you somehow, so I'm casting it here!
Feeling the urge to get spiritual states tattooed on me
Also purchased a pair of bookshelf speakers today (Kanto Tuks) from a family owned hi-fi store near me. The store is third generation but has been around for 78 years.

It’s a little janky on my bar right now but I wanted to listen as soon as I got them. I’ll get stands for them in a few days.

I usually listen to music while I make candles but I’ve been using my shitty tinny Google home speakers. And the AirPods Max are not cutting it since I’m on my feet all day and it’s so heavy on my head. I’ve been working every weekend for 3 months straight and I just couldn’t bear to listen to shitty sounds while working.

Super happy with my purchase and these will be well loved. I got them on sale and I feel good about giving money to a family owned business.
Me and @matallo.eth were suppose to go for breakfast tgt today but instead I pushed him to go meet and greet with a astronaut. He went.

So I went out for a solo date at my favourite cafe (got the last seat on a busy Saturday morning) and found a park I’ve never been to 🥰 I have a feeling it will be my new favourite park.
There was a shooting right outside my door 😔 police officer got shot and one suspect on the loose. A kid was arrested.

My apartment is just 10m from the incident but luckily I wasn’t home. I live in a pretty safe area (working professionals, young families) but now I’m sorta questioning that. Unfortunate that kids can get their hands on guns so young now.
I’ve been watching culinary class wars on Netflix (a Korean cooking reality show) and one thing I appreciate about the judges is that they take big bites of their food.

In American cooking shows the chefs only take tiny delicate bites and it’s like man are you even tasting the food
I desperately need someone to make me a miso onion braised soup 😭 I’m gonna make it I saw the recipe on tiktok
Today I went shopping for best friends’ 10 year old daughter. She’s becoming an adult now and recently she moved to a art school to help foster her talent.

I got her a professional sketch pad and a set of pencils. I remember getting gifted exactly this when I was younger and my sketchbook and pencils were one of my most prized possessions.

When I first started art classes I wanted the best supplies but couldn’t really afford them. I was obsessed because at the time I wanted to be the best (maybe this obsession has stayed but the medium has changed 😜). Obviously it’s about the artist, and not the tools, but having high quality tools gave me the drive to want to use them and become better.

I also remember how hurt I was when my parents took away my art supplies whenever I was grounded. And right now my friends daughter is going through a lot because she’s starting puberty, starting to want makeup etc. lots of big changes in a small body. So hope it helps her cope with those changes too.

Cold today ain’t it? Warm up with an apple crumble psl candle this weekend from humankind.place 🥰
Internet at my place will be down for the next 2 days. It’s been broken since last night. Lowkey I’ve been manifesting that so that I could get off TikTok and read all day instead. A bit inconvenient for work but it’s ok, I can enjoy working at a coffee shop.
