    THANK YOU everyone for your patience with this upload!❤️ 2022 has had a VERY rough ending for me because this past week was really crazy😩 But only 7.5 hours left until 2023 for the time zone I’m in! Maybe 2023 will start better than 2022 ended😅
    I was wanting to upload a “HOW TO JOURNAL” video tomorrow for the start of the New Year, but I haven’t been able to film it yet! I’m still planning on posting a video tomorrow at 12PM EST like usual (and hoping to get back to my normal uploading schedule), so I’ll post the “how to journal” video another time as soon as I can❤️

    I have so many journals, but what I recently created is a journal prompt journal. (sounds weird, yes, stay with me).
    So basically in my daily journal I write what I did that day, my thoughts, and stuff about the novels im planning to write. i almost never use journal prompts for that journal.
    but my journal prompt journal is specifically for journal prompts. i try to write in it almost daily, but instead of covering a bunch of subjects about my day, i just base the entry off a journal prompt. i’m gonna start it on january first and i’m super excited to do so!😊

    I write in a dialy journal which i prefer to call a diary. I have an obsession with writing diaries as well i have started simce i was in the 4th grade and now i am in the 8th grade. I love writing about my day and life and yes sometimes i han be 3 days late amd write about a specfic day of last week for example i am on thursday but i am still writing about monday and thats totally ok. You dont even have to write every day of your lofe its your book you can do whatever you want!! You can draw stick pictures use stickers make it yours!! But how i keep up with my diary is by using my phone notes every day i write down what happened in bulket points so that if i am kate to writing in my diary i can go back to my notes and copy everything down. Another tip is that if tour feeling unmotivated use pinterist i have a board where i save pictures of journals that look so cool to me even tho its not my way of journaling but it still inspires. Hope i made any sense and helped! Happy new year ❤️

    I start my 2nd journal today! I decorated the cover (back and front) yesterday 😊I decided this time I want to add color, decorations, stickers, sketches (because I want to get better at that), and photos. I look forward to writing reviews for every new movie/tv show I watch or book I read, and/or what I learned from them. I have to look for a new job this year, so I can't wait to write about my first day. My new journal is only 204 pages and I kinda want it to last all year so, on some days, I just might write one or more sentences of condensed thoughts or maybe a quote that really resonated with me. But I do want to journal daily. I'm going to write about any intense dreams I have, any milestones I've accomplished, or new people I meet/come across and what I like (or don't like) about them. Maybe I'll stick a weekly journal prompt in there also 🤔
    I decided one of my rules for journals is that I must have a journal with an index and numbered pages so I can keep track of significant topics and what page each month started so that I can find a date easier. The journal must have a blank (or nearly blank) cover so I can decorate it. It must have an elastic band to hold it together. And the paper must be at least 100gsm. I also like B5 sized journals. Amazon really helped with finding it.

    I don't have these problems like many other people have, such as finding a blank page hard to write on, or don't know where to begin, and being afraid of ruining the book and having everything perfect all the time... I don't know if it's just me, my autism, or a combination of both, but I have always been journaling and WANTING to put pen to paper and create things. Both writing stuff down and doodling and so on. I really cannot relate to all the struggles everyone else has with journaling... But nonetheless, I hope people start despite their struggles because journaling has so many benefits and when you get into it, it really is very fun! If you really want to, you can do it! Anyway, I really enjoyed the video even though I can't really relate to the topic :P I have just subscribed to you as well! Wish you all the best :)

    So maybe I'm just biased as a fountain pen collector, and maybe I just want to drag more people into the hobby, but I would suggest looking into "fountain pen friendly" notebooks/journals if you want something of quality. Brands that use high-quality paper are probably more likely to invest into proper binding and durability. These papers generally do a nicer job at preventing feathering, ghosting, and bleeding of inks as well.
    Some good papers are Rhodia, Clairefontaine, Tomoe River (one of the best for demonstrating ink properties, but is fairly transparent), Cosmo Air Light, some kinds of Muji paper (there's variability, from what I understand), Midori, Apica, Mnemosyne, and Regalia to name a few. I personally have only used Rhodia, Clairefontaine, and Apica, with Rhodia being my favorite.
    Thankfully there are plenty of resources (including here on UA-cam) that compare these papers, so you're sure to find something that suits your preferences :)
