how to fill an empty notebook

Hey, guys! Here are 20 ways of filling your empty notebooks. If you’re like me and have tons of books that can’t be spоiled, just keep rеading. This post can be useful for you (or can be not, who knows). Well, let’s get started!

Bullet journal

I bet you know abot it. Bujo is one of the easiest ways of tracking your time, habbits, etc. It’s also the way of creativity. As for me, bullet journal is not only a system to make an efficient schedule. It’s a way more. I make my own system that works for me based on bujo. For example, during the summer i don’t make each day as i do during my semester, i write only a week and tasks that i have this week with dates and time. As i don’t have a lot of events this system is perfect for me.

Diary

This one is not about schedules. If you have enough time, you can spend it on it. Write down:

your feelings

healthy changes

your opinion

what you’ve done today

actually whatever you want

Ideas

I do have such notebook and can say that it’s the best invention in the history. Seriously. I used to forget sth like what i want to give as a bday present or what i want to make to decorate my room. But now i just write it down and remember. Some sections that you might like:

presents

social networks post ideas

room decor

health tips (exercises, recipes, etc)

bujo (spread)

sketchbook ideas

Bullet journal collections

Yes, you can have it separated from your bujo. It’s useful for those who have little bujos and don’t have enough place. So having bujo’s collections is comfortable sometimes. Write TV shows you watch, books you’d like to read/already read, expenses, goals for year/semester/month/week/life… Just, as i said before, whatever.

Wishlist

This notebook helps you to set your goals, make a budget and track your wishes. When you have some, you write them down, kinda anolyse them and learn what you should do. For example, i want to go to GB next summer. I should work really hard this school year to have time next summer. According to this i make my study plan and so on.

Budget planner

Yes, a part of it is in your wishlist and one part is in your bujo collections. But here you can write the complete version of your budget plan. Here you can write: 

your everyday expenses

big unplanned expenses

expenses you should save money for

summary

Travel book

If you travel a lot, it’s definitely for you. Pics from you trip, your emotions, tickets, anything that will remind you of the atmosphere of the place. Also it’s a good planner for yor excursions.

Thankful for book

There you write everything you’re thankful for. I write sth everyday so now it’s kind if a habbit. I see that not only bad things have a place in my life. Every moment of your life is worth living.

Writing book

You’re a writer? You need practice. Write about the weather, describe the people, tell a fairy tale. Put down the ideas, sentences, characters for you stories.

Sketchbook

Should i explain?

Study planner

I mean it can be sth besides school, college, uni. It includes:

study plan for week/month

plan for one lesson

what you should concentrate on

lots of motivation (god you’ll need it)

Draft

Yes, your pretty notebook can be used as a draft for your school/college/uni. Here you’re not afraid to make a mistake.

Tracker

health

sport

food

mood

habbit

It becomes much easier to find out what you’d like to change in your life.

Recipes book

Well, it’s as clear as blue sky.

Dream book

Yes, in 2018 some people have dream books. In my opinion, it’s so cool to have one. You write what you dream/nightmare was about, the meaning of it and if the prediction came true.

Statistics

To sum everything up you need this notebook. You analyse (again) what you’ve done in different spheres of your life. When you see the revision of your life, it becomes easier to understand what you have to fix.

Review notebook

There you write your opinion on book/tv show/film/game/etc and some words about it. So you can train your writing skills and learn how to express your point of view.

Quote book

Mine is very big because i’m going to take social science exam in two years and for essay i will need a quote. It’s very useful for everyone as it enriches vocabulary.

Future me book

A message for yourself in the future. I’ve never had sth like this but i’d love to.

Stuff book

The most messy one. Here you can express yourself, make notes, draw, whatever. Everything and nothing at the same time.

a few tips for the new semester

after a pretty intense exam session and a few days of rest i am ready for the new semester, which for me starts tomorrow. here are some things i did to make its start a little smoother! they aren’t only applicable to semester start though, you can use them basically whenever

make sure you have all (or most of) your materials gathered - textbooks, any necessary handouts and printables, as well as stationery. as a stationery nerd i was sure i would have nothing to worry about, only to find out i ran out of whiteout tape. checking inventory won’t do any harm and can save some stress

test your connection - you can use an internet speedmeter or even do a video call with your friend to check where the data transfer is fastest. because of that method i moved my desk and suddenly my online class experience improved tenfold!!

try new routines - being inside so much has made my life pretty monotonous, so i decided to introduce some variety and change my routine. trying out new ones made me realise that i can actually be a morning person if i want to! now i wake up early and have more time for myself

state your goals - simply write them down or tell them to the mirror. put it out there in the universe and know what you want! they don’t have to be big goals, but know what you want to achieve in the upcoming weeks/months. (for me, i want to be able to place a coffee order in welsh confidently and do all my readings on time)

clear out your e-mail - oh, emails. the most dreaded thing at uni. i don’t know about you, but my faculty loves sending a bunch of unnecessary emails right before the new semester. to prepare for that, i deleted/opened all the earlier messages. that way i know exactly how many notifications are actually relevant and i don’t get overwhelmed by hundreds of unopened spam messages when the notifications are pinging.

i hope you have a great spring semester, regardless of the time it starts/started!!! remember to stay hydrated and look away from your screen every once in a while

random life tips

hello everyone!! since I’m not a pro at studying (I just do my best) I thought I would share with you some of my go-to tips to have a better day/week/month/life 😊

wake up early!! this may seem typical but I used to sleep in a lot and when I started waking up earlier I noticed a big change.

clean your face daily! every morning and night clean your face and moisturize. just create a skincare routine and stick to it! also, use a day per week when you have time to relax and put some masks and exfoliate your face and body.

this may seem stupid but dress clothes you like and put on some makeup! but most important when you feel like this is not your day. when we’re feeling bad or a little sad we usually throw on some sweatpants & a sweatshirt and don’t use make up and even though it may seem stupid, if you push yourself to wear your favorite outfit or put a little bit of makeup you will see yourself looking better and this will make you feel better during the day (I promise)!!!

eat breakfast! brain food guys!!! this is the most important meal of the day. as a Spanish phrase used A LOT by my mom says “eat breakfast like a king, have lunch like a prince and have dinner like a poor man” (desayuna como un rey, come como un príncipe y cena como un mendigo).

make to-do lists: yeah, make to-do list for everything you need them! this will help you to do everything you must do without leaving any task (which would happen to me when I didn’t write out what I needed to do)

shower every night! okay if you prefer taking a shower in the morning is up to you but showering at night relaxes you and helps you sleep better

talk to people everyday (even if it’s your parents) you need to talk guys and tell someone how you feel and what happened during the day (those days I don’t talk to my friends/family I feel super sad and I don’t know why?)

listen to music that makes you feel alive!! I have this playlist where I put every song that makes me feel something. I think music is so powerful and can help you change your mood in a few secs

go out to nature! since I live in a city it feels super great when I get to spend some time out in the woods or the beach – go running, swim, take a walk or just sit, breath fresh air and enjoy!

dance, dance, danceeeeeee!!! hahah it doesn’t matter if your dance moves are worse than a potato but dance, jump and let go!

treat yourself with your favorite meal every now and then. I love eating so whenever I get to eat my favorite food it’s a happy day for me hahah :’-)

talk to your reflection in the mirror. tell yourself how great is your hair today, how glowy is your skin and how beautiful are you! do it every day, it’ll help 😊

sleep enough hours! when I don’t sleep a healthy amount of hours I feel super tired and I get angry super easily, so sleep well and wake up to a beautiful day!

journal and write daily or when you feel like you need to! write what you feel, what happened in that day, write your goals, quotes to summarize the day, the dreams you had last night… I don’t know! just let your mind go and write and/or doodle I promise this helps :-) 

well I hope this helped at least some of you!! thank you if you’ve read this!! xx
