some notebooks
Jun. 28th, 2024 03:17 pmsome of the notebooks i keep:
diary
i keep a diary in A5 notebooks with lined pages. i'm on my twenty-fourth diary right now.
Great Notebook of Lists
A4 notebook with squared paper, like the notebooks i used for mathematics in high school (in fact the first one was a leftover maths notebook). in these i keep all kinds of lists (TBRs, to do lists, ingredients, ideas...); doodles and sketches; poem drafts; other random notes. i fill up roughly one of these per year.
four-year journal
a much thicker A5 notebook with one page for each day of the year. on each page, i write a 3-5 line journal entry for the same date of four consecutive years. i started on 28 May 2021, so i have almost a year left. it was a cheap notebook and is kind of falling apart.
selection of poems
a notebook into which i copy poems (by other people) that i particularly like.
poëziealbum
notebook in which i ask friends to write down a poem (of their own or from another author), like a vriendenboekje.
Board notebook
my notebook from my year as the Treasurer of my literary student association. that means i'm mostly done with it now, but i still refer to it occasionally and recently took some notes for a proposal i'll submit at the next general assembly.
Editor in Chief's notebook
same idea as the above, but for notes regarding the association's magazine of which i'm currently one of the Editors in Chief.
