For three years and over 800 entries, my ongoing project has documented my daily life within one Polaroid per day accompanied with written dairy entries on the day it was taken. Polaroids are tangible manifestations of memories, instantly created within minutes, allowing us to embrace and remember a moment forever, whether it is mundane or memorable. Recording my daily life has forever immortalised versions of me that have changed, matured and almost been forgotten, materialised with the words I wrote about the fleeting thoughts and emotions of that day. I picked these particular Polaroids for they encapsulate my lifestyle, intertwining monotonous study life with social life, creating a narrative of my life thus far. After hundreds of diary entries, to look back on them reminds me of how far I’ve come, how many memories I’ve created, and how many more are yet to be created.
