Beyond Selidor

I both agree and disagree with you about darker Cirque shows being better. My favourite Cirque show, after all, is Quidam, which is probably their darkest of all (and my favourite act is Quidam's incredible, heart-stopping banquine, which is really, really dark and bleak). But then the other shows I like the most are Varekai, which is joyful, and Dralion, which is hopeful... I think for me the problem with Ovo is that it had no really incredible, standout acts - even its finale was something that would only have been a mid-show act in Quidam, Alegria, Dralion and so on. My other issue was that its music and costuming was a bit ordinary (Alegria it was not), and the band and music were not well integrated into the show and story as a whole.

The flexibility of bullet journalling is its great strength - I don't even follow its rules either, and I love that it's a system that can accommodate everything from very stripped down, basic, logging of daily tasks to elaborate, complicated, fussy spreads that require a huge amount of expensive stationery.

I may write about my bullet journalling in more detail in the future, but for now if you want to be part of a community of bullet journallers, the bujo community on Dreamwidth might be worth checking out.
