You're only ever honest when you're alone.
Anna Wereinski seems to have it all - the looks, the grades, the money - but it's all a façade to keep others away. Behind her bright smiles and flower paintings there hides a scared high schooler who doesn't know how to express herself. Using her words, a set of colored pencils and polaroid film, Anna illustrates the story of how she overcame selfdoubt and found the guy who showed her she wasn't 'broken.' All within the bounds of her pink Leuchtturm1917 bullet journal.
Trigger warning: sexual assault and violence.

My Unheard Story: A Journey of Self-discovery
In high school, a girl felt invisible, haunted by bullying over her crooked teeth. Her smile, once a symbol of joy, became a target for cruel jokes, making her believe she was *less* than everyone else. She struggled to find her place, until she met him. He was a senior, someone she had seen around but never spoken to. At first, she didn't believe someone like him could notice someone like her. But their paths crossed in tuition classes, and they became unlikely friends. He valued her as a person, respecting her feelings and making it clear he saw her as just a friend. Though she hid her feelings, their connection deepened through playful conversations and mutual respect. He helped her grow confident, teaching her that self-love and standing up for herself were key to owning her power. Their bond, built on trust and understanding, wasn't a typical romance, but it transformed her. She learned to believe in herself. When he graduated and their paths diverged, she watched him leave, grateful for the journey they had shared. It wasn't the love story she expected, but it was the one she needed-one that helped her find herself and realize her worth.Complete

It is given to you, to determine what man or woman should be your lover. Who should be with you forever once you find them. If you find them. It's a mark that is only half-finished, the other half left on your soulmate's body. Heat emerges on the area of your mark when they're near, and cold grows the farther you are apart. For Anna Cardale, her shoulder is covered in what looks to be half of a wing. A beautiful red and delicate wing. She's quiet, stoic, and doesn't let anyone in. And she certainly doesn't care for a "soulmate" ever since escaping a terrifying past life. But when she moves to a new town and to a new school with a new care home family, her skin heats up. She feels her stomach churn in unnerved expression. It's as if something is yearning to pull her closer. And then she sees him. For it wasn't something that pulled her in. It was someone.

The Art of Unloving
Love is beautiful, intoxicating, and all-consuming-until it isn't. When she first met him, the world seemed to realign, as if every moment before had been leading her to him. Their love was the kind that existed in stolen glances, whispered promises, and the soft hum of a song playing in the background of their most intimate moments. But love, as she learned, does not always stay. And when it leaves, it takes pieces of you with it. Now, with nothing left but memories and an aching heart, she turns to the one thing that has never abandoned her-her words. Through the pages of her journal, she unravels the story of their love, tracing the moments that built them and the ones that broke them. She writes of the first touch, the lingering embraces, the fire in their kiss, and the silence that eventually replaced it all. Each page is a step toward healing, a reckoning with the past, and a surrender to the truth she's been too afraid to admit: sometimes, loving means learning how to unlove. But unloving is an art, one she is still trying to master. Told through poetic prose and raw emotion, The Art of Unloving is a poignant journey of love, loss, and self-discovery. It is a story for those who have loved deeply and lost painfully, for those who are still picking up the pieces, and for those who believe that even in heartbreak, there is hope.
