As of recently my brain has been continuously spurting out ideas that I’m forced to write down as quickly as possible before forgetting. As they continue to build up–I wanted to write a quick piece on two completely random, unrelated ideas that will probably be making it out of the notes app.

Website design…

I have been thinking about redesigning my website a lot recently. In general. But a consideration I had the other day was to design my website around looking like a journal page. This was inspired after learning that there are font tools you can use to make a custom font out of your own handwriting. We’ll see!

Creating a digital travel logbook & map…

I have been researching so many different places to travel. While I’ve been generating a wish list, I’ve also been having a hard time organizing them all. Some things I think about are: what to do in every location, where to potentially stay, and how much it would cost. I’ve found it’s difficult to also visualize where in the world all of these places are. To combat these problems, I’ve been thinking about making my own digital travel book, with hyperlinked pages where you can click on the location on the world map and it will take you to a matching organizational sheet to fill out all the information. Luckily, with it digital, it’ll be easy to add stickers to pinpoint specific locations as well. I originally wanted to use google maps or another tool but nothing seems to provide what I’m looking for so… I’m just going to make it myself.

While reading “The Creative Act: A Way of Being” by Rick Rubin, and finishing “Keep Going” by Austin Kleon. I’m feeling the need to identify and work towards things I really want to do in a more extreme way. It starts by sharing things I would have never considered sharing before, because it’s fun.

With my main point today being: record your random ideas, no matter how small.

Thank you.
