What a bullet journal is

 In my last post, I said that I got a bullet journal. Some of you do not know what a bullet journal is so here I am to teach it to you! Basically, a bullet journal is a homemade planner. The journals themselves are no different from normal notebooks except for the fact they have dots in them to help you draw things with straight lines. People make their own monthly planners where they use it just like a calendar! Only, the planner isn't pre-made, you do it yourself. Here are some things that could be in a bullet journal along with some planners:

-A future log (Think of what you see on the back of a calendar. Just the name of the month with tiny little numbers representing the days of that month.)

 

-A habit tracker (You write down what habits you want to get into during the month and cross of the progress you've made them here.)

-Sleep tracker (A tracker to regulate how many hours of sleep you get)

-Mood tracker (A fun little picture or checklist you draw to check off how you feel each day of the month)

-Quotes (Fun quotes to keep you positive with little pictures that fill up the pages you can't do anything with)

-Goal tracker (I didn't do this in my bullet journal, but this would be the place where you write goals for the month. Think of the habit tracker just with goals.) 

-Doodles (Doodles here and there on pages that are already taken up can be really cute. Just simple doodles make the page really pop out!)

-Weekly planner (This is more of what bullet journals are known for, planning every day along with the other days in the week on two pages)

Monthly planner- (This looks a lot like a calendar but instead you are the one who creates it.)

Index- (This is exactly what this sounds like- a page where you log each and every page that is written in your bullet journal)

Another cool thing about bullet journals is that there is markers that don't bleed through the pages! Here's a tip about bullet journals- For short, people call bullet journals bujos. This is a super fun hobby to under take! I am so excited to progress on this bullet journal! They usually last up to six months but the one I am starting on only goes from September to December. Are you int rested in doing this? The cool thing is, bullet journals are actually pretty cheap! I found mine for 7.99 on amazon and the pens were only about 16 dollars. It would be SO cool if you did this! Now, I would like to let everyone know that I didn't just stumble across this new hobby while I was on YouTube, my cousin was the one who introduced to me to it. I wouldn't even be writing this post write now if it weren't for her!

 Anyway, one of the great things I love about bullet journaling  is that you can do whatever you want in it! The ideas above are just something of the things I have heard of but you can do whatever you want in your own bullet journal! If it doesn't look perfect, that's OK. Not-so-great bullet journal pages actually turn out to be really cool-looking! If you're looking for cute bullet journal ideas, just go on pintrest and search up 'Bullet journal ideas' I found TONS of the ideas I used on pintrest. I used my mom's account though. Well, thank you so much for reading this post and I hope that you will maybe get into this??? Bye everybody! Remember: Stay positive!
