I told her I kill plants
While holding an African Daisy
It's delicate white-pink-purple petals shuddering in my hands as if afraid
I gravitate towards the hardier plants
The aloe, the jade, the fern.
While the others explore the fruit trees I glance at the friendly red and white plastic card bearing the plant's name and genus, and glared at the traitorous instructions that I had followed so many times only to lose to blight or dehydration, or neglect.
"What does annual mean?" I ask.
"Oh!" She exclaims, "annual means it grows over one season and then it dies."
"So it's meant to die."
She smiles in the way only she can because she knows.
I look down at the daisy
And the shudder of fear has become one of excitement
On the wind it sings to me
"Let me bring you joy
If only for a season."

Hariana Blosoma
A rare flower thought to be related to the Hariana family as they both share thin, hair-like petals and grow in the Fuline Ah region. However, Blosomas are only found on certain southern islands on the west side of the continent, whereas Harianas tend to favor the mainland (though some still can be found here and there on the islands, especially the larger ones)
The petals are sometimes used as decorations in dance ceremonies. They can also be candied and eaten as sour treats. The nectar of these flowers has a sour taste to them as well, and this flavor can even be detected in the stem and roots of the flower, though the stem is much milder than the roots.

So, my Frixion highlighters have grown mold. Every now and then I try and wipe it off, but this time I just decided to throw the neon pink and yellow away. First time I noticed mold on one of the pastels though. For now it's not of the highlighter tip so I won't throw it away yet.

Color in Your Things with A Posca Paint Marker!
Tumblr media
A Detail About Posca Paint Markers:
These color markers come in various brilliant colors and are used to color in anything from home décor to your diary and journals. After some time, the water-based ink used in Posca markers converts into a matte shine on both porous and non-porous surfaces. These paint markers have a bullet tip, do not have a pungent smell, won't easily fade, and are bleed resistant. Paper, wood, metal, plastics, leather, glass, and even leather may be used as substrates.
Most buyers say the paint stream is like a liquid gel pen. The nib glides over the paper with great ease, and since you don't have to press on it to use it, this pen is lighter and more pleasant than other pens. If you press down while holding them, you risk getting paint all over your hands if the nib collapses, so try to avoid doing so.
How You Can Use a Posca Paint Marker:
Posca Paint Markers may be used in a wide variety of ways. Here are a few examples to illustrate my point:
1. Add a splash of color to your furniture by drawing on it using posca paint markers. You may paint the legs of your sofa, draw colorful lines along the sides of the table, or add
fascinating decorations to the shelves in your home.
2. Create customized wood signs for your house, place of business, garage, or even your next camping trip with family and friends by using a router and some wood scraps. You might
come up with memorable words such as "Hiking in this location is strictly
banned" or inspirational slogans such as "Believe in yourself."
3. Make your phone seem unique. Make a design on the back of your phone with some Posca paint markers if you're in the mood for some artistic expression.

Thoughts about Pilot FriXion Erasable Gel Pens
Tumblr media
I'm going to be honest, I didn't love these at first, but they've grown on me a lot over the last few weeks of using them. It's become my go-to pen while at work (and is gradually becoming my go-to at home, as well), where I am oft to make mistakes when writing, and being able to erase saves me from using up a roll of Wite-Out after just a few weeks. More thoughts and pictures under the cut.
Like I said, my initial impressions of the pens were Not Great. When I first tested it out, I was really disappointed in how light the ink was. I would definitely consider the pigment more of a dark grey than a black, but I suppose that is the cost of it being able to be erase via friction. It doesn't bother me all that much anymore, but I do still prefer the look of my Uniball Signo 207 Micro gel pen.
I will say, the ink in these pens is very runny/wet when it first drops to the paper. The ink drops to the paper pretty inconsistently from the Frixion Ball Clicker pen I originally bought in size 0.7mm, so some strokes of the pen will look darker than others or just darker in different parts of the pen stroke. I don't find this quite as noticeable with the Frixion Point Synergy Clicker pen in size 0.5mm. I wouldn't say the ink flow is super consistent with either pen, but there's rarely any skipping or near complete lack of ink flow, like I tend to get with a lot of my Paper Mate InkJoy gel pens. At a glance, it looks almost as consistent as my Uniball, so I can't complain too much. (Dated writing is the FriXion Synergy and the "testing 1 2 3" is the Uniball Signo.)
Tumblr media
Despite the ink being pretty wet when it drops to the paper, once it is dried, I have no problems with it streaking when rubbed or marked over with a highlighter or marker. It does take significantly longer to dry on smoother paper like the Tomoe River Paper found in Hobonichis, but it takes almost no time to dry on the paper I use in my 6-ring journal. Even though it smudges more easily on TRP, it's at least erasable, so mistakes are less noticeable than if I were to use Wite-Out. (Below are notes I took in my A6 Hobonichi notebook about music a student was sharing with me at work.)
Tumblr media
A downside about erasing with this pen is that even though most of the pen's pigment is lifted, there is still a ghost of where the pigment was left on the page. It's hardly noticeable unless you know to look for it and if it's already been written over again. Also, I've found that thinner paper will warp and form a slight divot in the paper from being erased, and if you erase of the same part multiple times on thicker paper, it will have the same results. And I suppose this is just a natural result of using a hard tip that needs to be pressed hard and fast enough to the paper to create friction that will remove the ink. It can also be harder to get the ink to drop onto the paper where it has already been erased over more than once. Not really things that make or break the pen for me, but it kinda killed my idea of using this pen for temporary/daily checklists I could reset by erasing at the end of everyday. (Below are close-ups of writing tests. There's a lot going on with these pages since I used them for a lot of tests, but the main focus is meant to be the FriXion pens.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I guess all that's left is the aesthetics of the pens. I wasn't super fond of the bodies of either the 0.7 or Synergy 0.5 pens, but I did have a slight preference for the body of the 0.7 body after having both. I originally planned on just putting the 0.5 ink refill into the 0.7 body, but the eraser on the Synergy pen is slightly more tapered than the 0.7 and works better with the thinner pen tip. I'm also not generally someone who prioritizes pen aesthetics for the most part. I like have cute/pretty pens, but I generally prefer something that suits my functionality needs.
Tumblr media
Overall, I do really like the functionality and convenience of these pens, and while I do wish they were able to produce a darker black and more consistent pigment, I don't really have any qualms with how these pens look on paper with what I use them for.

Pen Review: Pilot FriXion Ball3 Slim 3-Color Multi Pen (0.38 mm - Pearl Green)
I have such a soft spot for multi-pens. I decided to try a dedicated Pilot Frixion 3-Colors Slim in pearl green ($9) with three different color options and came with 0.38 tip size (which is my favorite gel pen tip size). The Frixion 3-Color Slim hanging out with all the other mult-pens I’ve accumulated. I think I have one from each of the Japanese brands: Zebra Sarasa, Pilot Coleto, Uni Pencil…

Testing the pen on the AeroNote Reusable Notebook. The FriXion pen actually replicates the visual detail of mimicking using a sheet of compact paper. Except it doesn't allow you to lightly draw like a real ink pen. Either way it does pretty much the same thing on regular notebook

A legendary flower said to grow in the heart of Crescent Minoria. On some days, only the white petals are visible. On others, only the black petals are visible. It is thought to have similar properties to that of the Koshio flower, with a salty and spicy center. This has yet to be proven, however.

I just checked out the new hobonichi line up for 2024 and damn. I only started getting into getting one last year. Got the green weeks and the yuka hiiragi clear case for said weeks planner. Honestly a really good combo.
Theres a seahorse design aaaaaa, i liked the embroidery designs from last year but felt they were kinda meh in some ways. The bunnies one felt too dark, like the colours used werent contrast-y enough tho i cant say how it looked in person. And while i loveeed the cafe one i wish it had only sweets on it instead lf various cafe foods.
But if i get the seahorse one for next year..i suppose i could just not use a case. Or maybe get the normal clear one... i dont really like the colours they chose for the plain ones. Or wait i could do navy. Thatd make the case i have really pop.
Choices choices...
