Yhem Speaks

I’ll be honest — I don’t know the meaning of all the emojis out there.
There are so many! Some of them are cute, some are confusing, and some… I just don’t even attempt. I stick to the simple, basic ones I actually understand. And honestly? I’m perfectly fine with that.

For me, words have always had more value than emojis.
Maybe it’s the bookish girl in me — the one who grew up seeing stories as a way to connect, to express, to feel.
Emojis are fun (and sometimes necessary to add a little flavor), but nothing replaces real, thoughtful words. They paint the full picture.

Still, there are a few emojis that feel like a natural fit in my world:

📖 The Book Emoji.
  If you know me, you know how much this one makes sense. Reading isn’t just a hobby — it’s a lifestyle. 📖 pops up in my posts when I’m talking about my current reads, new book hauls, or cozy weekends spent flipping pages.

😃 and 😊 The Smiles.
   Simple, genuine smiles. I use these when I want to share a little warmth without making it complicated. A 😃 is a burst of happy energy; a 😊 is a soft, quiet kind of contentment. Both say, “I’m happy or smiling at something, and I hope you are too.”

✨ The Sparkles.
   Sometimes, life just needs a little magic. ✨ isn’t over the top — it’s the perfect sprinkle when I’m talking about small wins, good vibes, or just celebrating a moment.

❤️ The Heart.
    Straight to the point. Love, support, care — no need to overthink it. A little ❤️ says it all.

😴 The Sleepy Face.
    When I’m exhausted after a long day and I need to hit the bed.  This one says everything I’m feeling without needing a whole paragraph. Sleep is sacred.

🛍 The Shopping Bag.
    Because let’s be real, we all love shopping… don’t we?. Most of  my shopping trips somehow end with me carrying a bag full of girlie essentials and food. Things that fit my  lifestyle  perfectly.


I might not speak “fluent emoji,” but I speak fluent me. Honestly, that’s the language that matters most.
