new year special: unpotato self-care package

Last post for New Year Special! Through this series, I hope that we can all overcome our insecurities and take care of ourselves more during the next year! 💙 Self-care is not selfish, and you cannot spread the positivity to others when you are insecure about their performance. ❤️

dress up just to study, chew on the caps of your highlighters while you scribble notes in the margins of your books, put your feet up on your desk and drink cinnamon tea with too much sugar, learn calligraphy and write your favorite quotes on pages of old books and tape them to your wall, drink wine and read in the bath and use that bathbomb you keep forgetting is in your cabinet, play your favorite music play classical music play music from the 20s and dance down your hallway just because, call your friends and read aloud like each word is the most important one on the page, see if you can light enough candles to not need to use a lamp and open your window even though it’s cold, go for a walk and see if you can take a turn you haven’t taken before, live life as a challenge of how fun and dramatic a tiny world can be

every minute spent on planning saves you ten minutes spent on execution. short essays probably don't require that much preparation beforehand, but if you're writing something longer you should probably spend some time planning first. this is the process i go through when planning my essays, and i find it works really well!

I know it sounds fake but you really do have a lot of silent lovers on the planet who look at you and wish they had your smile or your hair color or your humor or your intellect or your intentions or your heart, your manners, your eyes, your ease, even just you. 

Some one still giggles when they think of that funny thing you said. Someone still smiles when they think of the compliment you gave them. Someone silently admires you. The advice you gave has made a difference for people. The support and love you’ve offered has made others’ day. You’re not insignificant or unimportant. Even tho it isn’t verbalized, the universe has still heard and the universe has loved you for helping out on it’s creations. You’re that person. You’re you.

I find that I am really affected by light. Sometimes, on dark days, I feel really unhappy and it’s hard to feel good until it’s sunny again. This is something I have been trying to change. One thing I’ve found helpful is to catch this feeling early when it appears and make a small change to my day – this morning I changed my nightstand into a coffee station. It seems silly but I love the gentle process of making coffee and the combination of all the different parts, the glass jugs and steel kettles and paper bags and beans. Noticing the little silver coffee clip alone helps (a gift from a good friend). Small things. ☕️
