To Keep Me Sane & Organised

I'm a little obsessed with books. 

Collecting actual books, filling journals, writing lists, scribbling away in them...

These are the little books I keep around and make sure I have every year so that I stay my (very) organised self and happy. Yes, it's a strange to some, but it works. A organised life keeps my brain clear and a stress-free.

BLOG BOOK 

New blog = New book. This is the space where I jot down ideas and plan posts, who to contact and when to post. At least it gets me on a plan to regularly post and is a necessity to bloggers, I believe.

LIST BOOK

This book honestly saved me last year. All the random To-Do lists, make up hauls, timetables, what to pack for trips away or plans for incredibly busy days go in here. It's probably my favourite book. It's very small and thin and easy to fling into some bag and whip out in shops. Definitely a must-have if you love being organised!

DIARY

An obvious need. This will be for assignments, tests and reminders. Everything academic!

I don't know how people get by without one. I treat everyday like a check list and try get through as much as possible while being able to plan ahead for future tests.

JOURNAL

For my everyday thoughts and scribbles and doodles. I have been keeping journals since I was 13 years old and it has probably been more beneficial than anything else. Firstly, It's so fun to look back and read what I used to think and see how much I've grown since then. Secondly, I get to vent and clear my mind of things that bug me or share thoughts and ideas that should be stored. Moleskine, as you can tell, is my choice of journal.

A BOOK

*insert any good book here* This is just the one I'm reading at the moment. This is where the "sane" bit comes in. A book is a hug for the soul and treat for your imagination. Pick up the hobby and get lost. It'll do you some good. 

Thank you trees for granting me happiness.
