Refverie - Planner

 With summer and a whole new vibe for next year, I’m trying to set up new habits and ways to anchor myself. I love the idea of a bullet journal but cannot handle having to make all the pages myself and I am not a cute doodler. So I have come up with this hybrid planner/reverse journal in which I write down what I plan to do, keep track of what I did, and keep to-do lists. I did this a few years ago and loved looking back and seeing that I actually did a lot of fun things, even when it feels like I laid around all day. It’s helping a lot so far this summer!!! “Felt weird/napped” is probably gonna be a repeat, lol • • • (planner credit: moleskine weekly! pen credit: pilot frixion- erasable bc of heat-changing ink!!! don’t leave them in your car or they will heat change to invisible and be out of commission lol) ((also lol just noticed ~refverie post~ : trying to do more so I figured I’d track it, haha... #influencer))

Refverie - The Rockies

 The Rockies are crazy and amazing... basically back when there was one of those supercontinents, there was an inland sea where Canada is now. Then things got all smushy and two plates collided and pushed all that sea floor way up to make the Rockies... there are so many cool aquatic fossils and sediments there now. And the glaciers that formed during the last ice age have been slowly grinding away a bunch of sediment and leaving cool landforms and ice-blue lakes behind. As a geology nerd I was LOVING IT. If (when) we go up here again, I’m gonna try to go the Burgess Shale- a huge and important fossil field with trilobites & stuff. • • • Visiting this geologically awesome place made me think about how so many of the features we see & take as normal are really fleeting on a geologic time scale- glaciers feel monumental, but they’re just like that last bit of snow to melt after a big storm. Barrier islands are beautiful but literally like a side effect of sea levels rising & falling and they are just a blip. It really blows my mind honestly and helps me feel a teeny bit better about climate change. The Earth will change, and it’ll be fine and probably make some new & awesome sights... just humans (more likely poor/vulnerable ones) won’t be around to see it bc we got out of hand with technology that won’t let this climate last. I don’t know where I was going with that, but glaciers are cool.
