I think the fact that you organize your experiences, thoughts, and goals in specific journals is actually part of why you are moving forward to graduate school. It shows an arc of will and specificity of life as it’s lived which has brought you where you want to go, if that makes sense😊
honestly yes this makes a lot of sense.. I just realized I forgot to talk about my planning journal but that one its full with every step that needs to be taken in order for me to successfully get abroad to study. and before that there were pages dedicated to planning my application
Now that I have my journal foundation I won't be buying any more unless it's to replace one that's fully filled out. This is the first time I have a system that actually works for me and prevents unnecessary journal buying haha. But I agree with you
Fellow notebook addict. I have one for dreams, financial goals, daily observations, random ideas etc There is always a reason for another journal. The Klimt Journal is beautiful.
Been reading a lot of philosophy so my journal is chock full of words I don't understand....found it useful to set aside time to deep dive on these words so I can really get a better understanding of their usage and context. I enjoyed the video thanks Valentina.
That Klimt notebook is beautiful. I keep saying I'm going to try to journal but can never seem to make it a consistent habit. It was interesting to hear your perspective and your journey with it so far. :)
I feel silly because I’ve been journaling consistently now for like 10~ years and it has never once occurred to me I could have multiple journals at once 😅omg…gonna try this out. Thank you for sharing! :)
Im starting a journal too, i love this. It reminds me it is possible to have this as a habit. Because I keep buying journals and starting them but I don’t follow up 🤣 also such a relaxing vid!
different journals for different brain dumps?? 🤯🤯🤯 astounded by your compartmentalization! processing thoughts in this way, do you feel a greater sense of clarity vs having everything in one journal?
It happened so organically tbh.. once I started intuitively filling them out instead of being worried about rigid self-imposed rules, they actually became helpful!!
so so happy your love 100 Years, told ya so beautiful...will be sending you something tonight on your PayPal...as promised...been traveling this week....more later and yes, even greater in spanish....xx, bb
I really wish I could get into the habit of journaling but I just feel cringe towards myself idk why!! I’m also a perfectionist-ish so I feel like all my thoughts need to be neat
this was so me (hence the note I wrote myself in the first journal about letting go of the shame of writing). Thought are not neat, I recommend getting into the habit just jotting them down. That's kind of how I naturally developed a few different journals with different purposes
4:28 i saw that, and it's PAINFULLY on the nose to have a sexually awkward moment while holding a klimt journal! and partially because i'm flustered that was so on the nose, but mostly because i can't believe you called me "bro" earlier, i think we should all just admit the sour stomach feelings we've been exploring have secretly been about affection this whole time and start talking openly about our feelings like adults! i'll go first: i started watching you because i felt a pleasant emotional response when i saw you and listened to you, as happens often in online social connections, and now i think we should talk about how to manage, enjoy, and understand those nice responses in the context of an abstract community-because i think feelings of affection and connection are important to any community. do you agree? what would your terms be? do you want to hear "i'm here to understand my feelings and not be weird and literal and possessive"? do you want guidelines like "your idea of me is not me, so don't talk about me-talk about your ideas through art or labelled as your own ideas"? help me, and us, understand how to express ourselves in a way that supports you the person and therefore lets satisfying conversation and satisfying community emerge, please-because one more "bro" and i'm going to wilt like daisy told it's to be used as a prop in faust!
As a STL native (who went to Wash U not SLU), I imagine it would've been difficult to go to SLU if you didn't go to HS in STL. It's a very insular school in that regard. "Where'd you go to HS?" is probably the second question asked there. Although I am older than you, so I might be talking out of my ass about nowadays. (Wash U thankfully is not so insular given that students come from around the country.)
Wash U was the only school to reject me and the only school I really wanted to go to! I think I probably would have stayed in STL had I attended Wash U rather than SLU but that's just how it goes. I became very acquainted with the STL suburbs after those two years that's for damn sure haha. Thankfully I loved UIUC. It's so cool you lived my dream though
Funny thing, I was desperate to leave STL after HS, and I only went to Wash U because it was the best school I got into. But I ended up loving it. U of I definitely has benefits over WashU, and I'm glad you ended up loving it there!@@bookpogo

There's no way one can have too many journals. I am a sucker for that.

I hope it works for you! I admire the use of one journal at a time though
Im starting a journal too, i love this. It reminds me it is possible to have this as a habit. Because I keep buying journals and starting them but I don’t follow up 🤣 also such a relaxing vid!
that's so real haha. I have a fear of forgetting so as long as I have a journal and pen nearby I maintain the habit. and thank you!!
Dope vid! I just started looking a journaling 😼

🙈

So you are already a writer 😃😺 Keeping a diary is writing, and noted diarists have included Virginia Woolf, Samuel Pepys and Sean O'Casey 👍
I guess so!
My “journal ecosystem” is scraps of paper with scribbles on them strewn across my general area.
I do this too and then I shove them into journals
this video is a much needed affirmation (i have so many notebooks too!! i feel so seen 🫂)
:)

i'll go first: i started watching you because i felt a pleasant emotional response when i saw you and listened to you, as happens often in online social connections, and now i think we should talk about how to manage, enjoy, and understand those nice responses in the context of an abstract community-because i think feelings of affection and connection are important to any community.
do you agree? what would your terms be? do you want to hear "i'm here to understand my feelings and not be weird and literal and possessive"? do you want guidelines like "your idea of me is not me, so don't talk about me-talk about your ideas through art or labelled as your own ideas"?
help me, and us, understand how to express ourselves in a way that supports you the person and therefore lets satisfying conversation and satisfying community emerge, please-because one more "bro" and i'm going to wilt like daisy told it's to be used as a prop in faust!
12:15 me the first time i read metamorphosis
another valentina banger
w greasy hair and all haha. Thank you :)
Lol at keeping your journal far away
