Journaling - Blog Posts

Good to see you journal! Soon it's gonna be a year for me journaling~

I'm happy to know that you like my journal posts! I have been journaling since 2020 and I'm still not over it..

I recently saw this on a YouTube video:

Photograph the things around you, write about the people and places, even the mundane and ordinary because those are the things that seem like they'll stay at the same forever, and they don't.

Anyways, I hope I encouraged you to keep journaling for many more years if it makes you feel good :))

finally back with posting my journal entries :))

pink cover: it's a journal my friend gave me. i have been using it last year and i plan to write about my feelings and deep thoughts

blue cover: i've been using it since 2021. it's basically a journal about my relationship with God and bible studies.

this was my first week on my 2023 planner.

Today, I am happier than yesterday.

Day Nineteen of Tranquil's winter studying challenge: Do you prefer silence or noise when you are focusing? How about when you're relaxing?

When I am focusing, I prefer silence, specially if I am studying math. When I am relaxing, I prefer noise, I love to listen to background music while I am not studying.

Today, I am fine.

Day Fifteen of Tranquil's winter studying challenge: Do you feel like art and creativity is something to be shared, or something that should be more personal? Do you feel like there is more merit given to people that share their creations and art with the public?

In my point of vision, art should only be created for yourself, but there is not a problem to share with the world. The point of art is to express anything that you want with creativity!

Day Sixteen Tranquil's winter studying challenge: Favourite food or drink to study with? (Bonus points if you share pictures of said food or drink)

I don't really eat food while studying, I prefer to take a pause to do it, but I like to drink tea and water while studying.

Day Seventeen Tranquil's winter studying challenge: When are you graduating from your current academic institution (university, high school, etc.) if you haven't graduated yet? and if you have already graduated, when did you graduate? What are your plans now that you've graduated?

I'll graduate from middle school in two weeks! I'm so exicited to vacation!

Day Eighteen Tranquil's winter studying challenge: If you could study abroad, where would you go?

I would really like to study in USA, since I'm from Brazil. Another place that interested me is Germany.

Today, I am stressed.

Day Fourteen of Tranquil' winter studying challenge: What do you think you add to this world?

I don't know, I have never thought about that, maybe joyful?

Today, I choose to be grateful, no matter what happens, because God is good.

Day Thirteen of Tranquil's winter studying challenge: How do you feel about taking a "self-care day" and not studying for a day or two?

Sometimes the study comunity can be really toxic while making the impression that we always need to be the perfect student and be productive. I think that is pretty normal to take a rest and have a self care-day. We don't need to be productive every single day!

Today, I am happy

Day Five of the Tranquil's winter study challenge: Name five things you are really good at.

1.Overthink, of course

2.Read for hours and hours

3. Write stories

4. Cook

5. Play card games

washi tape swatch!

I'm kinda of obsessed with stationary swatches

happy october :D

starting a new journal 📓

I have a journal where I wrote random stuff that moves me. It just is what it is.

have a blank notebook but don’t know what to use it for? here’s some ideas!

bullet journal - obviously!! but if you already have one here are some more ideas… 

dream diary - i love looking back on my dreams, but do it in the morning before you forget them!

food journal - write down everything you eat for the day, maybe include water too!

memory book - write down your favorite memories to always look back on!

quotes journal - one place for all of your favorite quotes!

reviews journal - try a new restaurant? movie? book? food? write your review, how was it? did you enjoy it? would you do it again?

gratitude journal - write down everything your thankful for. 

daily journal - journal (almost) everyday. include anything you want, what you did for the day, what you ate, who you were with.

brain storming book - write down all of your awesome ideas in one place!

books of lists - if you love writing lists maybe you need a specific book to just write down all of your favorites!

recipe book - keep all of your favorite recipes here, or even recipes you want to try. 

wishlist book - keep a book of everything you want.

letters book - this could be rough drafts for letters, or letters you wish you could send to someone but know you’ll never have the courage to.

things to look up - have a space for everything you don’t want to forget to look up later or research more. 

news headlines book - write down the headlines from the day/week or important events that happened, how you felt about it. this will be interesting to look back on!

doodle book - are you a doodler when you’re talking on the phone or just watching TV? keep all of your doodles together!

let me know if you guys try any of these out! i’d love to know what you think xx

"I'll set up my new journal!"

My cat:

It is December 26th, 2024 and I have fully filled two journals I've owned since at least 2019. From front to back they are filled with random things that crossed my mind, notes of my interests, and things I never felt safe to share.

I am proud of filling them. Proud they are no longer blank pages. Excited to start in the next.

I have learned so much about myself since I started my journey of self discovery and self love in September. I am such a unique, smart, and thoughtful individual, but I am sure everyone says that about themselves. There's so much I have to learn about myself and so much I want to accomplish. I have to work on how I set and approach goals, but that's a challenge I welcome.

I am starting to slowly understand myself and I am so excited to meet me.

I am trying to start small and build my way up, but experimenting and adding new things in would work. I'm so hesitant because it won't be aesthetic but that's not the point of journaling, right? Thank you for your input! I appreciate you!

I have started to journal over the past month, but I use a simple hardcover notebook with lined paper. While I think it's very useful, I am interested in other types of journals like bullet journals and traveler's journals. I am not sure which would be best for me, though?

I don't really keep track of things like my water intake, what books I read, and daily tasks in my journal, but I do write a lot of my thoughts, my spiritual journey, mood at the start/end of the day, gratitude, etc.

I don't know how I could really work these all into a cohesive place and what type of journal to even begin with in the first place. I would love suggestions and insight from anyone who's had a similar problem. Thank you!

I had my chance, I missed them, or blatantly turned away; every single one. I had many chances. Now, this grief is entirely on me. I'll spare you of any final apology. I'm sorry. Goodbye. I hope you'll turn out to be well, whatever might the situation be.

I stole this from myself, lol. R.I.P. to this Deetzy when she wrote that.
