Do you keep a journal or is that too grade 8? I've kept them on and off all my life, but more than ever I love having a journal. Currently my journal is part sketchbook, part collage book, part running to-do lists, and some writing. I don't have any rules about it and really what ever I want goes in it. Ticket stubs, ideas, lists...it's my place to keep my thoughts safe and recorded.
Here are a few little "peeks" into my journal. Oh and a little endorsement...I love Ecojot journals. For one they are a Canadian company. Second everything is 100% recycled paper. The inks they used are vegetable based (biodegradable) and the mill used to produce their journals runs on biogas harnessed from a near by landfill!!! Oh and third, the illustrations/graphics are oh so cute. I love Ecojot and wouldn't mind if Santa brought me a new sketchbook from them!
I don't carry a journal for the sole purpose that I don't think I'd ever write in it. My sisters always kept a journal whenever they were younger, so I think I had one back in 4th grade or so that had a plastic lock (I do believe it was Lisa Frank). :) That's why I like blogging so much-it's my online journal. I get to write down stories and ideas in a way that I'll be able to look through the archives and see all my stored memories.
ReplyDeleteI don't have an email address on my blog for the sole reason that I'm horrendous at replying to people's emails. If you have a photography question for me you can just leave it in my comments and I'll make sure to get back to you {if you want me to email you}. I'm flattered that you have a question for me-my knowledge of photography is amateur at best:)
I have that exact same journal ^_^
ReplyDeleteI have kept journals since I was a little girl, and i adore them. Some of them are filled, some half empty. I always pick them up, where ever I go.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I opened your blog and saw your page~ Swoon!
And you just know, I must try one of these journals now. ; )
Journals really are the lovelies, of obsessions of mine.

ReplyDeleteand to answer your question on my blog, the photo was actually taken somewhere in between new york and new jersey, i was on a road trip :)
Don't worry, not only you. I do too. Mine consists of bits of everyday life, to do lists, inspiring quotes, some ideas and lots of ramblings!
ReplyDeleteThis remind me, a new year, a new journal too! x
I've always kept one. Not really consistantly but I've always had one. Now I have three. And you must check this out if you haven't seen it on my blog.

Ecotjots!
Do you know where to order them online??? I want to get blank ones. The ones I have, have lines in them and the next ones I'd like to be more like sketchbooks.
Shout me a line if you do! :)
PS-oh how I'd LOVE for a PEEK inside them. For inspiration for all. Hint Hint!
