Bullet Journaling: A Guide

I’ve decided to make a little guide for anyone who might be thinking about starting a bujo but doesn’t know where to begin. 

What is a bullet journal and why should you have one?

It can work as a mix of a to-do-list, planner, diary, art journal, notebook, tracker etc.

you can use it as a planner for your work/school life, personal life or a mix of both

Tbh it can be anything you want, that’s what so nice about a bujo, some things may work for you and some things might not!

Use it to have some quality time with yourself, relaxing, being creative, getting your shit together. I think everyone has different reasons for having one. I do it because it helps me relax, makes me remember all I have to do and then it’s also a way for me to stay a little creative when I don’t normally have time to paint and draw so much.

  What do you need to start a bullet journal?

You might have seen a lot of extremely beautiful pictures floating around the internet with expensive notebooks and fancy pens, but you don’t need anything like that at all. This is what I think you need:

Some kind of notebook. It doesn’t really matter which one, some people like Lechtturm or Moleskine, but any notebook you have lying around will work just fine. (Maybe just don’t get one with 300 pages as it will seem overwhelming to have to finish it)

Pay attention to if it has blank, lined, gritted or dotted pages tho! For a journal focusing mostly on art, I would recommend blank pages, and for writing a lined. If you want your journal to have perfectly straight lines, a gritted journal will probably work the best. If you want something in between or don’t really know exactly what you want, I think you should choose the dotted one (that’s also what I use).

Some kind of pens and pencils. Just pay attention to if they will bleed through your pages!

Optional: Scraps of paper, colored tape (washi tape), (polaroid) pictures, old tickets, stickers, watercolors, pressed flowers, cute wrapping paper or literally anything you have lying around or anything you think look cute! 

Practical things like glue, a ruler, a scissor

What should/could you put in your bullet journal?

I will give you a lot of ideas to spreads etc but don’t make them just because. Some things will work for you and a lot of things probably won’t. It can be tiring to make a lot of pages with things that don’t help you at all. Your bujo shouldn’t feel like a burden, so if you find a spread not working for you, then simply drop it :) 

*Start off with an intro page, maybe write your name, phone number and email in case it gets lost. Your bujo can quickly become one of your most beloved things so be careful!

*Make a key page with what symbols will you be using for tasks, completed tasks, events, birthdays, appointments etc.

*Maybe make an index. Some people like using it, but I abandoned mine pretty quickly, so again, that’s up to you.

*Yearly overview

*Monthly overview

*Weekly spreads. Most people include these pages and they might be the ones you will use the most with daily to-do-lists and the like.

*You can let your spreads be inspired by lots of different things as colors, seasons, holidays, the movie you just watched, an album, a place, a smell, a feeling, outer space, a person etc. Also don’t be afraid to play with different shapes and textures.

Page over your contacts, and important birthdays

*Habit tracker page (you can track sleep, water, exercise, spendings, medication, yoga etc) This can also easily be incorporated in your weekly spreads.

*Since we are close to the new year, you can do resolutions for the year.

Monthly/weekly/daily goals

*Memory pages. These could include a spread from new years, Christmas or a café trip with a good friend.

*Travel logs. You can write it like a diary or just glue in tickets and draw something.

*Gratitude log. Write 1-3 things every day that you are grateful for.

*Movies/series to watch

Books to read

*Book reviews

Music to listen to

*Favourite songs

Bucket list

*Paint test pages

*Brain dump pages

School assignments overview

*Grade tracker

*Exam planner

Class schedule

Favourite lyrics

*Favourite quotes

Gift ideas

*Christmas gifts planner

Wishlist. Update it whenever something pops into your mind so you will have some wishes when people ask you.

Dream log

Passwords for different websites

Countdown page

*Mood tracker

*Random doodle page

Highlights of 2018

Un-do list (bad habits)

Handwriting practice

*Different writing challenges like 6-word stories or a sentence a day.

Playlists for different moods

List of your favourite things

Savings tracker

Your budget

+ literally a thousand more!

*The ones I’ve tried

General tips

When you start your journal it can be very hard to be satisfied with it right away and you might be tempted to rip out pages. If you think this will happen, I suggest numbering your pages from the start. I would recommend not ripping anything out anyway because when you’re 50 pages in, it’s fun to see how much it has changed over time.

if you want your bujo to be a little artsy, I would recommend always outlining with a pencil before you start using your pens.

If you don’t feel like an index will work but you still want it to be organized, you can color code it with tape on the side of the paper. Ex. you can use your red flower tape every time you start a new month.

about:

-born on January 1st, i’m a capricorn sun, gemini moon, and virgo rising. -i speak English, Spanish, and have been learning French since high school. -i love coffee and tea equally! -i’m a dog person, mostly because i’m allergic to cats :( -slytherin house, though i’ve been showing a lot of ravenclaw traits lately… -intj-a -i love reading fiction and YA, film and digital photography, playing my nintendo ds (mostly animal crossing), watching tv shows (the office, buffy, himym, dexter, friends, twin peaks), film and movies in general, crafting (sewing, bullet journaling, making zines, stickers, pins). i have a hard time trying to do everything always! -currently listening to lots of mitski, king princess, 90s girl punk, florence, lana.

my school:

-i attend Florida International University -i transferred from Miami Dade College, where I first did Architecture, then switched to Chemistry -now i am majoring in Geoscience, minoring in French Language, getting a certificate in Women and Gender Studies and hopefully will be able to take some theater classes as well -my plan is to graduate next Fall, 2019 and attend graduate school to work on my phD in Hydrogeology, concentrating on water management. -i wish I could study more subjects like more physics, english, art, etc. but my university restricts the amount of credits a student can take before charging double per credit :( (i think this is all of florida though)

Bullet Journaling 101: My Story, Flipthrough, Tips and Resources

A bullet journal is a system of organization created by Ryder Carroll that “aims to track the past, organize the present and plan for the future”. It’s a diary, journal and planner all in one: an amalgamation of all the facets of a person’s life in a series of different bullet points. Several YouTubers and bloggers have attributed their newfound sense of productivity and success to this and attested that it has helped tremendously in reordering their priorities.

And just like everyone else who seemed tempted by the idea, I’ve been wanting to join the whole movement. In fact, I’ve been watching flipthrough videos since last year, with my “bujo inspo” YouTube playlist amassing a grand total of 109 videos as of press time. I’ve followed a lot of Instagram accounts who’ve made a living out of this practice, and even put a short-lived Pinterest account (for the third time since the ninth grade – I don’t know why it can’t stick with me) in the hopes of gaining inspiration to get started. But, none of those worked in helping my intimidation die down.

I have been exposed to a great number of bullet journal spreads that are so aesthetically pleasing and color-coordinated that they seem almost unrealistic. I lacked the skills and resources required to start. Not enough Tombow brush pens or collaging skills in my arsenal, I thought, which would just lead to a decline in my journal’s appeal. At this juncture, I would like to point out that a bullet journal’s main priority must be functionality. Yes, it can also serve as a great medium for artistic expression but this must not hinder it from serving its true purpose: to get its owner’s life together.

Anyway, dumaldal na naman si Angel. Wala talagang kupas.

If it’s of any interest to you, I use a Leuchtturm 1917 ruled notebook in the color purple, which I got for half its original price at my local National Bookstore. I was initially supposed to go for the dotted version, as it is more popular in the bujo community. Turns out I forgot to check the label before paying for it, and only found out I had bought the wrong version when I had got home. I don’t have any regrets though: I find it easier to write on lined pages, and they don’t really change its effectivity.

I have a black Pilot G-Tec in 0.4mm thickness for writing, as I feel my handwriting looks best when I use this pen. Alongside these are my Dong-A fineliners—which are a great alternative to the much pricier Steadtlers—and my pride and joy, my Stabilo pastel highlighters. I have a black Artline Stix brush pen, which I use for my headings, and a normal pencil for making rough drafts of spreads. I also keep a thin pad of Post-it notes that I replenish weekly on the front page, where I write down any ideas that pop in my head that I’d later on put in its respective spread. I’m trying to keep my set-up as minimal and low-maintenance as possible, but with a pop of color here and there so it won’t end up being too bland and boring.

But contrary to popular belief, there is no fixed set of materials that one must purchase to start a bullet journal. In fact, there doesn’t even need to be any purchasing at all: you can start with something as simple as an old notebook lying around your bedroom floor, and the regular pen that you use for school. Colored markers and washi tapes and any other art supplies are purely optional.

Now that we’ve got that out of the way, here’s a peek into what’s actually inside my bullet journal:

Key: Consists of a series of symbols that mean to organize entries into different categories. I have tasks—which can be subdivided into those that are complete, have been migrated or scheduled on another date—events and notes, which can be further emphasized by an asterisk that means they are a priority.

About Me: A short page on the side complete with my basic information. I don’t intend on sharing this with anyone else after this post, but I like keeping this as it feels like a standard way of starting a journal.

Index: Serves as a table of contents. It’s incredibly helpful when it comes to locating spreads, but it cannot fulfill its purpose if one is not consistent in supplying the information it needs. I like to jot the page number and a short description of what’s written on it in the index immediately after I fill out another spread so I don’t forget.

Future Log: My next six months at a glance. This is where I write all major activities and events. I’ve considered putting in birthdays of people who are important to me as well, but I feel like they’d take way too much space so I’ll work on assembling a separate spread to keep track of them.

Collections: Just a few pages to jot down some books I need to read, movies to see, posts to write for this blog and places to go. If ever you have any recommendations, you can shoot me a message here on Tumblr or any of my social media accounts.

(Half) Year in Pixels + Habit Tracker: Admittedly my favorite spread so far. Although I did have to make the grids manually because I’m using a lined notebook, I am very satisfied with how this came out. On the far left side, I’ll be tracking my mood by coloring in squares according to how I felt during the day: purple if great, red if good, orange if it was smack dab in the middle, blue if it was an off day and green if terrible.

For the remainder of the spread, I’ll be monitoring my progress in developing five habits of my choice and checking the corresponding box if I was able to do it on that specific day. The ones I’ve chosen to focus on are drinking eight glasses of water a day, eating only one cup of rice for lunch and dinner, not lurking on anyone’s accounts during my free time to avoid counterproductivity, saying only kind words towards others and using social media for only an hour a day.

Monthly Spreads: Pretty self-explanatory. This is the one I’ve made for November 2017, and I feel like this is the layout I’ll be sticking to. On the left-hand page, I have all the days of the month written vertically with an important task or event beside it. You might have noticed that these are the exact same items under my Future Log, and think that the whole practice of bullet journaling can get quite repetitive but I find it better to write the same things over and over again so they stick to my head.

To the right, I have an expenses tracker, where I write everything I’ve bought for the month. I was supposed to add a box to indicate my savings goal, but I’ll get around to that eventually. I also have a sleep tracker, which I will be doing in the form of a line graph, and my five main goals to give me a sense of direction.

Grades Tracker – 3rd Quarter: Where I write down all the marks I’ve gotten in all my subjects. I write down HW for homework, PT for performance task, Q for quiz and SW for seatwork, then my score but I haven’t been able to do the latter yet since none of our class activities have been graded yet. I’m aiming to become at least a Merit Card Awardee by the end of the school year, so this tool will be extremely helpful in ensuring that everything I do is a step in the right direction.

I have a page that shows my class schedule for this semester and two weekly spreads but the former is too private to divulge and the latter is still under construction, so I decided not to include any pictures of them. Besides, I don’t think any of them would be of much interest to you. Do note that this serves mainly as a source of inspiration. Your bullet journal does not have to follow this format. Since it’s highly flexible and customizable, revolves around you, you wants and your needs, you call the shots at the end of the day and are given full authority to change things up to your liking.

If, by any chance, this post has made you consider converting to this system, congratulations. You’re making a great decision, and I can’t wait for you to see your life get whipped back into shape. I’ve only been bullet journaling for two weeks tops, but I can honestly say that I’m never looking back. As mentioned in my previous blog post, it has given me a newfound sense of order in and control over my life, and keeps motivated to do the tasks required of me. Literally my favorite feeling in the world right now is getting to cross out everything I needed to do for the day.

Below are some resources that I found could be helpful for any bullet journal beginner. There’s honestly much more where that came from, and you can always message me for them:

Weekly Spreads: A Guide and Inspiration Post

This post is for you who have just started a bullet journal or consider starting one, and have no idea how to get a weekly spread to work. And, this post is for you who have had a bullet journal for ages and feel empty for ideas for next weeks spread.

This was initially just supposed to be spread and decoration ideas, but here’s just a little guide anyway:

How does a weekly spread work/Why even have one?

Compared to a monthly spread, this is where you write smaller daily tasks, weekly goals etc, that’s too specific for the monthly calendar.

You can make it fill out a whole spread or just one page per week, this depends on how much you want to write down every day, and how much you want to decorate it.

You can make it as artsy as you want and as simple as you want. (this guide is aimed at pretty artsy weekly spreads)

The main idea is to help you plan your week, get things done, get an overview etc. 

I use my bullet journal as a diary too, and therefore I make space to both tasks and writing in my weekly spreads, but you don’t have to do that.

How I make my weekly spreads

first, I choose a theme. It’s often inspired by something happening in my life atm, something I’ve seen, read, experienced etc. You don’t have to choose a theme or even a colour if you just want your weekly spreads to be functional (!!!). I choose a theme bc, one, it makes it easier to fill out an entire spread, two, it’s pretty, three, it’s fun. You can see a lot of spread ideas if you scroll a bit :)

Then, I work with that specific theme. Think of this as a brainstorm-thing. I find a quote/a couple quotes that match the theme, think of drawings that could fit, find washi tape/stickers in the right colours, and everything else I want to be incorporated into the spread. If you scroll a bit more, u can see ideas to what these things might be :)

Now, I sit down at my desk, find everything I need, make a cup of coffee and start the music! With all the things I need, I begin to plan how the layout should be. I sketch it all out with a pencil first. If you don’t know how to layout I suggest just trying something out and searching for inspiration online (there’s so much!!) If you scroll to the end of this post, I will also tag some Tumblr folks you could check out. I could begin talking about layout myself, but I think that will need a post for itself (this is long enough as it is).

When I have decorated the spread the way I want to, I fill it up with the tasks and events I’ll have to remember, and then it’s all set!

studyblr tag xoxo

@pinetreestudies tagged me and idk why there are 15 questions but hey I’m down!

rules: answer these 10 questions and then tag 10 more ppl to answer them!

tagging: @jennystudy / @thekingsstudy / @bujo-rd / @pumpkinstudylatte / @aestudier / @athenus / @piiess / @equaticns / @sapphiccstudies / @donutdesk

1. What is your degree/favourite subject?

I am majoring in Anthropology with a minor in Spanish!

2. Where are you from?

USA!

3. What motivates you to study?

A crazy combination of ambition, spite, and characters such as Rory Gilmore and Elle Woods.

4. What do you love about yourself?

I’m not willing to compromise my morals to get ahead.

5. What time do you do your best studying?

Early in the morning and late at night! I like waking up early best.

6. What is your favourite tv show?

Currently Gilmore Girls!! I’m on Season 2 and Rory is incredible inspiring, but so is Paris.

7. Best self care tip for exam season?

Don’t cram. Plan out small study sessions and make them larger as the deadline approaches. But please do your brain a favor and don’t cram.

8. Do you listen to music when you study?

Yep! I gotta have something with words on in the background. Upbeat tempos especially motivate me.

9. What is your favourite book?

This is incredibly difficult, but I love The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde.

10. Where do you do your best studying?

A library or quiet study hall! My mind views certain places in a certain light, so if I’m in a “work only” zone then I’m less likely to get distracted.

11. What do you get complimented on often?

Recently I’ve been complimented a lot on how conscientious I am of others’ feelings, but in general people always point out my intelligence. Which is nice, but I don’t succeed just because I’m smart--I have to work hard.

12. Where would you like to live in the future?

Somewhere abroad, preferably in Catalonia or Argentina, but right now I’d love to live in Boston.

13. How long have you been active on your studyblr?

April 2017 was when I started!

14. Favourite way to spend study breaks?

Stretching -- don’t forget little stretches like those for your hands and arms !! -- and having a small snack.

15. What is your favourite study snack?

I consume popcorn, chex mix, tea, and chips/salsa like a vacuum cleaner.
