it's that techo time of year

i don't always make a great habit out of filling in every techo i get, but i really love them as objects & spaces for potential thought to go as i track the year

my last one was a cute astro boy themed cover & this year i was especially taken with one following the design of my favorite statue (structure?) of all time: the incredible tower of the sun... every facet of it is such a spectacle in person & seeing it was one of my many highlights of living in osaka for a while

i'm really pleased to add another little aspect of my fandom around a giant piece of public art~

fuckin LOVE the tower of the sun, one of the best side trips I ever made

kuraine @kuraine9/6/2023, 9:02 PM

literally the coolest thing

i'm only sad we got there too late to actually go inside....... will have to visit again next time we're in osaka

this was my fate too but in defense of my local friends who scheduled the trip it DOES look fucking sick at sunset

I love my techo (even though as you say they can be hard to fill out sometimes). What’s so silly is every year I have a mini crisis about whether I should go to the smaller size, the weeks, get one of those big multi-year ones, etc., as if any of that will ever help me use it more.

My favorite lifestyle change in the last few years was getting into journaling and planning in a Hobonichi Techo. It's such a joy to slowly fill this thing through the year with memories and stuff!!
