am currently trying and will try to record more of life in 2025. whether it be through collecting receipts, jotting down an entry in a journal, recording a voice memo, or taking a simple video.
i love looking at old video/photos and jounal entries to see what i did on a specific day.
we always forget about the mundane

I am a pretty obsessive documenter. I seem to have bad memory, which got me into keeping record of things as much as i can. Iโll be taking photos on my iphone, videos on my camcorder (for onion vlogs i make every month), and i keep FOUR diaries with all different purposes. 1: sorta like a gratitude journal. Simple bullet points of things i โliked, lacked, learned, longed forโ and thank yous. 2: a โthrow upโ notebook where i throw up all my thoughts. 3: a simple scheduler thats a weekly format hobonichi. 4: an hourly day-to-day diary that i fill up retroactively to learn any patterns and habits. Kinda like self-research.

It's just fun writing about things that don't or won't matter and that you won't remember.
Those things make up your life.

i know it's basic but keeping a daily journal has been one of the most grounding things in my life. you don't need to shell out $$$ on a travelers' notebook and a snazzy pen, but just repeating the daily act of physically writing your thoughts down is a wonderful thing. i keep a daily recollection/diary sort of thing along with a sort of freeform commonplace book where i jot down thoughts or lyric ideas or cool words i read and had to look up definitions of. it's nerd shit but the sort of positive affirming nerd shit that everyone needs at least a little bit of. also the amount of stuff you forget over the course of a week/month/year is astounding -- doing this is fun in part because you can read through your past entries (good and bad) again with fresh eyes.

woke up at 530 and got on the train around 6. hate the early commutes but at the same time id rather be on a train with few people and leave work early so the pros outweigh the cons here
