My Bullet Journal : My Favorite Waste of Time

September 13, 2016

hey all!
when you know what they say  “The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.”
out well i LOVE spending time in my bullet journal. which i probably spend about an hour per week setting up or filling out.
do you know what a bullet journal is? well about six months ago i didn’t either well this is the cover of my bullet journal.

so basically in bullet journaling, you use an empty notebook and make a planner. i use a notebook called LEUCHTTURM1917. i absolutely love this notebook because it comes with page numbers and an index, so you can track your months and look back to pages if necessary.

sorry that these are such low-quality pictures, but here is what my weekly layout looks like. i layout my week, then use colorful washi tape to decorate. i typically buy my washi tape from target, paper source and maido. and i use STABILO pens in my planner, but i layout with muji pens.

here is my monthly layout. also for each month, i make a “spending log” where i track how much money i make or spend. i also make what is called a habit tracker where i track how many days in a month i slept 8 hours, or any habit that i would like to to better with.
sorry for the low quality pictures. i will share again soon how i make my bullet journal and how i write *(etc)
thanks for reading!

so first, here is my backpack:
L.L.Bean Deluxe Book Pack -$29 (on sale right now!) : I have had this backpack for many years now, I usually switch up my colors so this year i picked the color dahlia purple this year. I also had it monogrammed in the style “initial flared” a new style for me this year, but i absolutely love it!

here is my water bottle:
32 oz Wide Mouth Hydroflask -$39.95 : okay, so this water bottle is a little expensive, but it’s a REALLY GREAT WATER BOTTLE. it keeps cold up to 24 hours, and I’ve tested this, i brought it to all day girl scout camp and on an overnight and i didn’t open the bottle till the next morning and there were still large pieces of ice! so basically i just LOVE cold water!


and i have my iphone case and my pencil case!
i have a
iPhone 5 Battery Case , Maxboost Atomic S iPhone Charger For Apple iPhone 5s -$29 : this is a super iPhone charger case! on top of being super cute, it is super functional because it charges so well. so when you forget to charge your phone the night before school you still have access to your phone because of this case!
0.55 liter Really Useful Box – $2.99: this is just supposed to be a storage box, but it works terrifically as a storage box. it holds all of the pens that i need as well as some washi tape and some post-it note flags!
so all, that is pretty much it for my essentials!
i hope that you enjoy, if you have any school essentials please share it with me!
