Important Announcement:
April Fools Day (April 1) is one week away. To that end, I just want it known now, well before the day, that this blog will NOT be posting any jump scares, fake announcements, freak-out posts, fake hackings, fake emergencies, fake news, and “gotcha!” stuff on April Fools Day. We’re staying safe and chill around here.
I’m honestly not into April Fools Day, really, unless the jokes are obvious and silly–like Rickrolls and Dad Jokes. Rickrolls and Dad Jokes are just traditional.

Favourite polaroid, favourite planner spread and favourite scent of this year. Despite this year being a rollercoaster for most of us - reflecting on the positives has made me feel a bit less weary for 2021. I'm sending you all good vibes for the year to come, let's hope it'll be nice to us all 💌
There are 1,000+ followers now for this lil “TLT love letter” of a blog, and also, 2020 is over! Mazel tov!
Somebody will be getting these:
How do I participate? Reblog and also leave a comment in the notes for what you love most about TLT. (Please don’t overthink it. Doesn’t have to be fancy or eloquent.) This is about writing a silly love letter together and gifting somebody with handmade “special edition” hardcovers.
Do I have to be a follower? Nope! It’d be SO cool if it pans out that way, but nope.
How will the winner be chosen? Random generator.
What happens if I win? You must share your mailing address. If you are a minor, PLEASE oh please OMFG please ask permission from your parent/guardian! (Yep, I’ll ship free internationally.)
What if I already own printed copies of these books? Sorry, but I must insist that you gIvE tHeM aWaY. Someone out there wants them (or these). Purely honor system. I’m confident you’ll find a worthy recipient.
The giveaway is open until the 1st of February 2021. The winner will get a special valentine notification on 2/14/21! (Why the 2-week gap? I am but one [1] humin bean.)
Also, to make myself smile, I’m gonna reblog some favorite older posts/reblogs during the giveaway’s entry period. It’s a “free giveaway,” right? Aw yeah.

I woke up early today to a white Istanbul and I’ve finished reading Wuthering Heights. It was my first time reading it in English so it felt like I read it for the first time. It took me a bit longer to read it than usual since I wasn’t familiar with some words and old phrases. Also, an old photo from Amsterdam, I truly want to visit there once again.
