I’m so glad you’re interested in seeing it! I was almost considering not filming it but I’ll try to this weekend bc of your comment ❤️

Thank you for your message!!! I can report that I JUST finished the interview and I did surprisingly well?!?!?! I don’t even know who I am!!! I’m so happy now!!

No it didn’t since the cover for this md paper a6 is this cardboard sort of material! All MD notebooks are pretty minimal and have that exposed spine and cardboard covers!

Aww thank you hahahaha 😭 I went back and tried to fix it a bit by adding more stamp lines LOL idk if it helped but u can see what I did when I film my next vid

That is such a good idea omg, I should treat myself to some KBBQ and açai bowl after! Already looking forward to it 😂 The Knox planner is really nice!! What do you plan to use it for? I have the hobo a6 weekly supplement in it and it’s a bit too big but planning to buy the sterling ink pocket vertical weekly to put in it next year :) let me know if you end up ordering it and in what colour/size!!!

Oh and good luck in your interviews too!!! Hoping you can stay positive throughout the process and hope you get a good result! ❤️

@catspocketnote I highly recommend you do that! I had an interview on Monday (I ended up not getting it), but that did not stop me from remembering that day fondly because I went with my bf to our favorite sushi place 🥰 I want to use it like my main planner! I have a a6 hobonichi planner as my journal and a hobonichi weeks as my planner but even though I love the weeks, the size is not my cup of tea so I was just looking for another system and I came across your video 😁 I think is a brilliant idea to put the weekly supplement even though it is a tight fit! I think I want to try printing my own inserts 🫣

Oh I’d be soo keen to see your final setup! making my own inserts intimidates me and I don’t own a printer (yet) but it would be fantastic for making something tailored that works for your life. Also! I’m considering getting the hobonichi a6 for a memory keeper in 2025 😂 it would be so awesome if we ended up with the same / similar planner lineup - think we might both be pocket size notebooks enthusiasts

/btw question, what are your recommendations on starting a journal for memories like you? Like I have 1000 journals but they are all so messy and I don’t know..I would love advice and if it’s a good thing cause the idea looks cool:))

Omg don’t even talk to me about other people’s expectations, I so get you, it makes it worse for me when I know someone is expecting more from me or says I have potential that I’m not meeting ;____; In terms of a memory keeping journal, I only just started this notebook as a trial for memory keeping! But I did a lot of research into the right planner size (passport, a6, b6, a5) and style (plain, lined, grid, weekly, daily, undated) and right now I’m figuring out what I want the notebook to do (whether I prefer memory keeping everything I did every day or only journal about certain memories). I’m hoping I can use this trial blank notebook as a practice to making nice spreads and to see whether I want to buy a dated daily journal (hobonichi a6) next year or an undated journal for only special moments :) I’ll keep you updated on how the memory keeping journey goes, I plan to make a video on it when I start buying next year’s journals!

Thank you so much!! This means so much to me you have no idea 😭😭😭

Aww thank you!! I love neat tidy notes I’m so glad you appreciated them xD

First interviews can be intimidating. I used to struggle with the same self doubts when I started out. You have a great mindset on how whatever happens, this is a good experience to help you learn and grow. It's okay to make mistakes because that is ultimately how we learn important information. Good luck! Although, it sounds like you're well prepared.

Thank you for the kind words ❤️ I wish I could’ve come off more positive in the video but I was just feeling a tad overwhelmed 😅 I will move forward no matter what and learn from tomorrow’s interview :) thanks for your belief in my preparation, I hope I live up to it!!

Thank you for the tips!! I’m going to try them literally in todays spread about a house warming I hosted, going to use my new washi tapes like how you suggested :)

Yes I am! Hahahaha they just have the cutest little things xD

Thank you !!! ❤️

Thank you!! :) happy to share more Aussie stationary stores!! I feel like bookbinders have a pretty big selection of Japanese stationary. I also like Milligram, bunbougu and minimaru :)

Thank you for supporting reading content!! 😭😭 I would love to do more but apart from the struggle of trying to read more daily I also feel like it gets less interest, but I’ll keep at it because I love to share it and it’s meaningful to me :)) thanks for watching btw!

Freaking out that it’s tomorrow 😂 thank you so much for the well wishes!

It went well!! I’m proud of myself for the time I got but lowkey think I maybe could go faster… it’s funny leading up to the marathon and during the marathon I kept telling myself this was the only one I would do, and now I’m already thinking of doing another! When was the Adelaide marathon? And how did he find it?

@@catspocketnote 25th August. He's been doing them for years.

He’s my inspiration haha doing them for years is insane

Awww thank you so much and welcome to my channel :) I’m so glad yt helps me find other cozy loving people!

Awwww thank you for your well wishes!!! I’ll do my best! ❤ 😊

Aww thank you for watching and liking the book review!! Honestly I didn’t know if it would be too boring to watch but I’m so glad you liked it plus the vlog ❤️ I’ll try film some more vlogs to add into my videos! Daily vlogs might be difficult to do right now, but I’ll keep it in mind :)

Thank you for this comment!! I really enjoyed making this video so this means a lot :)

Yeah it’s the nicest one around where I am :) thanks for commenting!

You've reminded me of my first attempt at a travel journal (in a regular size TN) and I totally cracked under the pressure to make nice looking pages and stopped about 3 days in. You're right this binder method really helped with that perfectionism since I just hole punched things in without too much thought on where it should go on a page. I still got some paralysis from some of the spreads where I had to use stickers but I'm slowly getting past it ^_^ Hope you try this method out next time you travel journal and lmk if it works out :)

@@catspocketnote Definitely, will implement your methods in my future trips. ☺️

Oh I 100% get how you feel about 'tarnishing' a notebook. But I can honestly say it's really worthwhile journalling about those topics and not just journalling for happy memory keeping. I had to remind myself that all my thoughts and feelings (even the negative ones) are valuable and deserve the space they take up in my notebooks. Your worry about others reading your negative words is a genuine concern too, i think it comes from internal 'shame' but you should give yourself the grace to have those 'shameful' thoughts and the space to let them out in order to work through them... sorry this ended up sounding like a self-help post lol

Thank you for your message ❤ hope you enjoyed the video :)

That's a good point, I will measure my current hobonichi a6 weekly supplement columns and compare with the sterling ink passport tn size columns. Standard tn size would make use of my brown tn cover that's currently gathering dust in my drawer...i will consider that as an option though since I really love that cover. Thanks for sharing! gave me some ideas

Just checked and the columns seem to be the same size actually, 2cm wide. It’s tiny but I carry my planner around to work and want it to be portable above everything else!

Oh I had no idea time blocking was encouraged for ADHD! Let me know how it works for you :) it really helps me understand what’s coming up in the day especially since my rings lie flat and I leave it on my desk to refer to throughout the day

Thanks jasmine ❤ your encouragement means a lot, really!

Oh I love the set up you landed with, I’m 85% sure I will buy a sterling ink next year too and can’t wait to try it for the first time. Thank you for watching and your encouragement :) I’ll upload the next one soon hopefully tomorrow!

Awww you are sooooo kind! Thank you 😭 made my day! I will upload my next one soon :)

@@catspocketnote I am excited for your next video. ☺️

Just uploaded!! Thank you for your patience ^__^
