Help me decide how to use my new journal!

Post by Juneberry »

So, I got a care package in the mail from a fellow writer. In it, a ton of cute sticky pads, a really cool 4-in-1 tool pen which I've dubbed the swiss army pen, and finally... A gorgeous new notebook that I absolutely am stunned by. But that begs the question... What should I use this journal for? I can't think of just one thing. My mind is running a mile a minute with ideas... So let me hear some of yours to help break my way through the idea vortex!

Maybe some kinda gullet journal? Or just a whatever journal and just write anything you need to at the time be it a to do list, an idea, anything. Or a personal journal? Or a journal you fill in for a character? That could be fun.

I might just mix a few of those together~ Dad highly recommended the personal journal, but I've been watching journaling videos on youtube and a mix of lists and life happenings sounded pretty enticing. Also is gullet journal meant to be bullet journal or is a gullet journal a separate thing? :o

That's just me not know how to type apparently XD Nah, I meant bullet journal. I like the mix idea. Plus you can still write about personal stuff, along with other stuff.

I've been watching journaling videos and got a neat idea for the back or front cover. I'm not sure what to use for it though since they used craft paper and I can't think of anything other than cardstock xD

They made an envelope area on one cover page to put pictures that mattered to them in it.

Oh that is cool! I'm sure you could do that with card stock too.
