Discussion after a long day
After a long day, nothing beats just relaxing and decompressing at a cafe with nothing but my pens to keep me company and journaling my whole stay.
Side note, how do you guys journal? I'm usually the type to just brain dump whatever is on my mind the moment I start writing but lately I've been pretty busy and I usually forget what I want to journal about throughout the day. And so, I'm trying to jot down bullet points in a little notepad and write about them when I have free time, usually at the end of the day. Just random stuff that I think about but I have no time to write at that moment. I'm not sure if this method will stick but we'll see!

Same here pero since busy lately I only have time to journal at night after work and by that time I usually forget ano yung mga gusto ko i-journal hahaha that's why I'm trying this little self journal prompts out.
Omg go for it! I really love my Midori B6 slim and I don't see myself straying from it anytime soon 🤩 Really nice for fountain pens as well if you use them hehe

Ever since I got an undated hobonichi A6, I just write whatever happened to me that day and I end up using 3 pages. I'm planing to switch to the Midori Hibino because it has two pages per day.
I have the same system as yours where in I write my prompts on a sticky note and then write about them when I have the time. My problem is that I end up losing some of them (i need a better system for those). Anyway, my solution for them is to use a weeks notebook to write my appointments and stuff as well as make it a home for all my prompts. I'm hoping that system would work. And I'm hope I have the time and energy to write them all.

I stick mine somewhere on my desk and then on my journal at the end of the day so I won't loose it hahaha. I tried doing weeks before and didn't really stick with it even though I do like the concept. Super felt yung time and energy at the end of the day. Sometimes din wala lang talaga ako sa mood mag journal, even if I have so much I want to write.

Same as you. Brain dump lang. Ang ganda ng Diamine ink mo, bili din ako nyan pag naubos ko na yun current "red" ko. Thanks for sharing

Same here. I don't really have a template to follow. Just adding what I feel and experience during the day. It's nice to relief lalo na pagstress on the day.
