{ phone }

try the phone reset challenge (delete all the social media, games, entertainment apps, or other distracting apps from your phone and don’t add them back for 30 days and see which ones you actually need/miss)

get rid of photos u don’t need or that make u remember anything other than good times

try using ur screen time app and a “sleep focus” to block certain apps/websites and turn off notifications at 10pm or whenever u want to get ready for bed

🐚🐚

{ mental health }

practice mindfulness when u wake up and when ur going to sleep

journal about anything and everything you’re thinking about (write down everything u want to remember to clear up some mental space)

surround yourself with people that make you happy, and cut off the ones who don’t

remind yourself that everything on the internet is fake and you’re only seeing what they want you to see, not the full picture

make a list of goals and hopes for the summer and for the rest of the year and try to work towards them

don’t forget to take time to rest and recharge!

remember that you don’t owe anyone anything and you’re doing all this for yourself!

but also know that you’re not alone! feel free to dm me with anything that’s on ur mind 🤍 and never be scared to talk about whatever ur going thru with the people u trust!

🐚🐚

luv always, saltty

You are SO valid for having a Barbie movie as a comfort movie because same <333

Awwwwwww thank you love!!! 💗🦋☁️✨ Not only are we both valid for choosing Barbie movies but we both also have exquisite taste 👼🏽🐚🪐🤍!!! Barbie movies capture a different sort of magic and youthful energy than Disney movies (perhaps it’s the girly, whimsical aesthetics & the detail put into dance sequences and songs) that is really just so... visually appealing, nostalgic and touching? Like it really appeals to my inner child lol... the need to consume glitter, poofy dresses, ballet, pretty castles, catchy songs, fun animal friends and cute romances!

When my sisters and I were younger, every time a new Barbie movie came out our father would take us to the local Rogers to rent it so all of the movies come with great memories! I even own Nutcracker, Rapunzel, Diamond castle, 12 dancing princesses, princess charm school and three musketeers on CD and Princess and the pauper on VHS (I used to keep a VHS TV in my bedroom and watch old movies at night). I’m most attached to Princess and the Pauper because my sisters and i used to watch it over and over again (to the point my sister and I would have to put the movie up on Youtube to fall asleep at one point). Also I LOVED the romance between Erika and Dominic, their lil organic romance blossoming and the way he just knew her and loved her for her and waited for her akskkdldldkdkdkdnc. To this day, I love the music, the costumes, the aesthetics, the friendship between Erika and Anneliese, the romances, Preminger, nick and nack as the hilarious villains and the messages of loyalty, being true to yourself, courage and unconditional love. when i listen to the music especially, i’m transported back to being young and wide-eyed, dreaming of fun adventures and sweet romances. 💖🎀💎🌸🌷

I remember once I told a former friend that i liked Barbie movies and they went “Barbie?!?! Ew.” A lot of ppl knock down on how great the movies are (plot, animation, aesthetics, movies, dance etc.) w/o even seeing them out of this weird misconception that Barbie is cheesy, low-quality and childish. when really, it has delivered on such beautiful cinematography, poignant messages, iconic aesthetics and music and dance that touch the heart and bring you back to the warmth of childhood youth. that is the exact definition of a comfort movie no? something lighthearted to make u feel young and inspired again. you are more than valid for having a barbie movie as a comfort movie anon and i hope, even in 20 or 30 years, you still feel the same magical feelings you have watching it as you do now ✨☁️🔮💞

(also anon feel free to let me know which Barbie movie is ur comfort movie!!!)

(Why does Dominic have to drive to his own honeymoon. Why are they doing a double honeymoon - wasn’t a double wedding enough. Why.)
