helloWhen the pandemic hit, school went virtual. It became difficult to separate time for work and time for fun. A couple of years ago, I’d started saving quotes that were especially meaningful to me. On one particularly stressful day of online school, I thought of writing them down in the journal I had recently hand-sewn.
helloFor each quote, I drew an illustration that conveyed both the literal and personal meaning to me. Between these illustrated pages of quotes, I began to write short diary entries whenever I felt overjoyed or overwhelmed by something that I experienced in my day. My notebook of quotes is now my daily diary.
