JOURNALING
I'm doing a comeback. Haven't been journaling since my teen years so at least 10+ years!
My first fountain pen. Stub nib is the academia drama :) And it is easy with the shimmer and glittery inks.

ART
Am an occasional dabbler of different art mediums depending on my mood :)
Great starter and for small creative projects! The pigments are nice and consistency is easy to use too! And this kit has enough colors to get you started but not too much in case you're not sure if you're going to commit yet.

Creamy texture, beautiful vibrant colors. Easy to reactivate too if it becomes dry. A great starter kit and for occasional gouache user like me :)

INKS
My newest obsession
I just love the shimmer and how depending the light, the color and sparkle whispers to you on the page. It just heightens your writing experience :) but beware, it is quite shimmery! A dark teal base with green shimmer. I used it with a bent nib and ...
A Thousand Grass - Ink
I was looking for a deep warm brown and I just think this is what it is. It is simple. No shimmer or sheen. Just rich, deep and academia style brown color. More fun than black ink but subtle enough to use daily without being out of place :) This ink ...
Noodler's Fountain Ink 3oz Bottle Walnut
A beautiful turquoise blue, fresh for spring and summer with gold sparkles. It really has a starry energy just like its name. Magical vibe! Need to use a M or higher nib though!
Mechanics of The Stars - Ferris Wheel Press Ink
My most dramatic ink for now. Dark red with green sheen and blue shimmer. I used that to do notes while I was reading Babel from RF Kuang…can you imagine the feeling? :) dark academia-autumn-dramatic but beautiful vibe.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening - Switch
So since I loved Link's Awakening so much. My brother got this one for me. Graphics style are the same so it was already great. And this gameplay was a bit different with the use of the princess's wand and so for me, this one was a fun game but requi...
