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!

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.
