Reading for Feelings
Fiction that hurts a little, self-help that actually helps, and stories that make me highlight half the page.
Little things I do when I'm not debugging, writing papers, or pretending my life is a Netflix series.
Quiet, soft, low-stim hobbies for recharging my social battery.
Fiction that hurts a little, self-help that actually helps, and stories that make me highlight half the page.
Taking pictures of sunsets, city lights, and tiny details so I can scrapbook them into future nostalgia.
Late-night pages, weekly resets, and little letters to my future self. Preferably with lo-fi playing in the background.
Playing my favorite songs way too loud, drowning out thoughts, and turning every moment into an overly dramatic music video.
Binge-watching my comfort shows, crying over fictional characters, and pretending I'm analyzing cinema when I'm really just vibing.
Stuff that lets me build, design, or organize my little universe.
Turning random ideas into websites, posters, and slides that feel like movie intros. Way too many fonts, just enough drama.
Building small scripts, weird UIs, and sandbox projects just because my brain said βwhat if we made this real?β
Over-engineered to-do lists, semester planners, and tracking absolutely everything because it calms my brain.
