WELCOME!

Welcome to my first blog! I have always enjoyed writing down my thoughts and feelings, to-do list. This involved keeping a personal diary or composition notebook in which I would cut out magazine pictures, and create collage or keep a notebook for collectives in which I would make a list of all the books I read to date or all the movies I watched. But as I got older and busy in life I didn’t get time to do all the stuff that I love. Little did I know that this would be something I would dive back into later in life.

I was first introduced to bullet journaling back when I was in senior high school by a famous Youtuber. This peaked my interest so I started looking up what Bullet journaling was. I was introduced to a world that I had long  forgotten but was very familiar with. At that time i did not have courage and time to start a bullet journal on my own.

I started my bullet journal journey in the first year of college. I got inspired by other bullet  journalists on Pinterest and Youtube and got the courage to start one of my own. I have been journaling now for two year straight  now  and it is something that I thoroughly enjoy and regret not starting earlier in my school life. Throughout this journey, bullet journal has helped me to stay grounded, focused, and mentally sound. I think we all tend to forget the benefit of going back to the old fashioned ways of writing things down on paper, saving memories, keeping daily logs in this digital world.

At the end of the day, when I sit down to write in my bullet journal it gives me a break from from the fast life we are living and from the pressure all around me. All in all bullet journal has given me the piece I lost in my childhood back and at the same time kept me on track of my life. 
When I began journaling, I was so intimidated and overwhelmed by the beautiful spreads created by the other artists. But as I started journaling I realised what makes bullet journaling special. The bullet journal is for you and your needs, it is how you make it and not how others, it depends on you to make it functional and according to your needs. Your bullet journal should represent you and you only. But I did not understand this out right in the starting. It took me six months to make it functional for me. But now I’m here to help you and make sure you don’t do the same mistakes I made.

I am always looking for a reason to be inspired and to share it with others. I hope that my blog does just this for you.
