dude, i promise iâm not a vampire, i just donât wanna be intrusive you know ?? so can u like invite me in ??
⢠Never fret about how much stationary you have. You dont need a vast collection of washi tapes, pens and stickers to create a brilliant journal. Your collection will build slowly. Besides, I find that the best of spreads are made from stray scraps and hand drawn pictures etc.
⢠Also, (and this applies to general artists too) expensive supplies do not automatically make you a better artist. You may want to explore and find your journalling feet first, or at least understand that expensive supplies won't instantly make your spreads incredible, and that the best works can be made from anything, recycled, handmade, cheap, expensive... it's the artist that makes it what it is.
⢠Hold on to things. Receipts, labels, tickets. Keep these things in a folder too so you always have a treasure trove of bits and bobs.
⢠In the same vein, keep things like wrapping paper and magazine cutouts. When you don't have access to a printer but feel the inspiration for a spread, you can always resort to these. Plus, they look lovely as borders and backgrounds for pages.
⢠Dont be afraid to stick things down and just see where it takes you. You dont always have to have an elaborate plan for each and every spread. As I say, the greatest spreads are often the ones thrown together quickly and experimentally.
⢠Dont be scared to use your supplies!!!! I had this problem before. Your craft supplies are made to be used, so don't be stingy with them. Rip things up, tape things down, go crazy! It's what artists do.
⢠If you aren't happy with certain pages in your journal, don't rip them out!! It shows creative progress, good spreads and not so good spreads. A journal that was perfect the whole way through would become monotonous, no? In other words, a slow, fast, up and down, loop-de-looping rollercoaster is far more thrilling than a single-speed straight-tracked rollercoaster, isn't it?
⢠Don't be afraid of changing styles. Again, this book is your own and can be a fun example of how you've grown as an artist. So if you begin with a minimalist, planner-type journal and then decide you prefer aesthetic, scrapbooking styles, no worries!! It's your journal, no one else's.
⢠Write whatever you want! Your idols, interests, friends and family, life, anything you wish!! This journal is yours and yours alone. Use it like a diary, use it as an open letter to your idols, use it to chronicle your art skills, or just have fun making nice-looking pages! Why not? As long as your having fun, there are no rules or boundaries to journalling, just as there are no rules or boundaries to creating art. Just have fun!!

youâre 17 on the verge of immortality and you sit in the backyard of your best friend. youâre there for a small party theyâre throwing, and you watch as several people you know spectate a game of beer pong. itâs warm and lights softly illuminate the grassy yard. the air smells of chlorine from the large pool not yet warm enough to swim in. youâre buzzed and red-faced and glad.
itâs 10 pm and youâre having a sleepover with your best friend. you have face masks on and youâre lounging in pajamas, snacks covering your bed. your parents just went to bed and your best friend decides that now is the perfect time for a dance party. you get up and grab hands, dancing around your room with abandon. youâve never felt more ridiculous. youâve never felt more at home.
you stare out of the passenger side window of a beat up car. itâs late at night and youâre driving up the coast with someone youâve run away with. butterflies rustle in your stomach and despite your drowsiness, sleep evades you. the sound of other cars passing is comforting and although you tingle with anxiety, excitement over whatâs to come stirs in your mind.
itâs 1956 and you live in northern california. youâve just arrived at your high schoolâs formal prom. the theme is starry night. your outfit is perfect and your date is picturesque. rock nâ roll is the new thing and itâs the life of the party. you never thought your schoolâs gym could look so beautiful. you lay your hand in your dateâs and you dance the night away.
Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac except youâre a witch, lazily fixing up a potion on an autum evening while it plays on your stereo.

AU where Tony knew Aunt May and Uncle Ben in college so that in Iron Man 2 when Peter goes to the Stark Expo it becomes a âCharles and Ellen Mulaney meet Bill Clintonâ scenario in the Parker household.
Peter: My aunt gets the invitation to the Stark Expo in the mail, and she goes, âWe gotta go! We gotta go see Tony!â and without looking at her and just turning the page in a newspaper my uncle goes, âWhy? Itâs not like heâs going to remember you.âÂ
With great power comes great responsibility. Same motherfucker.
So my aunt says, "Fine, Iâll take Peter.â
And I go, âHeck yeah!â and I slide out into the living room in my Iron Man mask and we walk out the door.
