@jemgold_ used to make a list for every trip, but realized a lot was the same
now I have a packing list template in my notes app and adjust from there. it’s helped me a lot with pre-trip chaos actually
trying to get to a point where I don’t have to try on every outfit before I go 💀

I think you need that delineation if the goal is legibility, top version is a bit difficult to read
in like 10th grade or so I said “salmon” (pronouncing the L) out loud and got corrected ”it’s pronounced sammon”
today I told my dad this story and it blew his mind — “it’s pronounced without the L????”
so we googled it
let’s talk about why salmon is pronounced no L in English
my parents being filipino, they say it how it’d be pronounced in Spanish
I grew up hearing it that way, spelled that way, + pretty much ignored every time I heard someone say it “sammon”, assuming it was just one of those English words with regional variations in pronunciation
idk yet if my career will “take a hit” starting remote
but I do feel like I’m taken more seriously off the bat because it’s more difficult to draw conclusions (aka overlook) about me based on age, height, etc
possibly I just have a good work environment but it’s refreshing
this morning I am thinking about a story my dad told at my tito’s funeral
my tito once asked my dad if he’d experienced a moment in his life where he truly ✨knew✨ in his heart that God was real
my dad said yes
my tito said I wish I could have that moment
I feel like my tito
