Life Book (Lined Soft Cover Notebook)
My Life Book is a constant source of inspiration to me. I fill it with affirmations, wishes, dreams, goals, slips of memories like my airline ticket to Paris, Laduree condiments, Metro tickets, etc. Although I promised myself I wouldn't vent in it, I need an outlet and so it happens. That makes it even better once I conquer whatever it is that I'm venting, to look back and see how far I've come! It is simply a dream to write in. Once you find the right pen (which is totally your preference though the Uniball pens work awesomely) it is liken to the experience of reading novels with browning pages in the Strand!
Nikki Fierce Manual (London Guide Book)
I purchased this London Guide with intent to leg it and go mental in Covent Garden, Trafalgar square or whatever other equally thrilling place that captured my fancy. I love the philosophy of the book which is: 'For every traveller who has any taste of his own, the only useful guidebook will be the one which he himself has written' spoken by Aldous Huxley. It's awesome to think of only recording the aspects of a place that thrilled you. But, I picked it up from my shelf one day, needing a place to record chords that I've learned for the ukulele, thus, killing two birds with one stone. Here, I copy the chords of songs I love playing, and finger placement charts for easy memorization.
Book Journal (Moleskine Passions)
I've never had one book dedicated to reviewing and cataloging the novels I read, and I thought, why not start afresh with one? I started the year off with voracious novel reading and scribbling all sorts of random thoughts about them in my journal. It's been pretty fun! I've decided to create a section here at Forelsket based on the entries scribbled in this book. Thought it would be a fun take on book reviewing, so I can't wait to get started?
Do you have a Moleskine? If so what do you use it for? Even if you don't have one, how do you transform your notebooks into more of an experience?
