[goosemods]

Welcome to the new home of the OOC chatter post, in our brand new community dedicated to all of your OOC shitposting needs! We're going to start off very rules and moderation lite and see how things go.

1) You can post and comment here with any journal you own, i.e. CDJs, character journals from any game, etc. You don't need to join the comm in order to comment, but you can if you want.

2) We will do our best to continue putting up new chatter posts here whenever the old ones get close to filling up.

3) If for whatever reason, you'd like to make a new post in campers, you can!

And also: Please put a subject line in your comments to help people sort through conversations!

Re: bullet journals

[survivalof]

I tried this for like a month MAYBE but I ended up hating it. That said, I am terrible about keeping up with any kind of list (ask me how many grocery lists on how many scraps of paper I have, and I still won't take any of them with me) or planners (my elementary school made us use planners and I just stayed in constant trouble for not filling mine out), so I don't know WHY I thought this was an activity for me. Other than it's pretty.

I've considered some day trying to do like a visual journal kinda thing, but that would be journaling after the fact, not trying to keep up with stuff?

Aka I am no help, carry on.

lmfao i remember school planners and i also didn't ever use mine. i'm hoping like the making the journal pretty and what not part is what'll keep me interested, but who knows.

I THINK part of what might help, if you really want that pretty aesthetic, is to like... do quick pretty? Like stamps, stickers, washi tape? Because I had it in my head I was going to ~draw~ everything (partially because I am cheap af and didn't want to by supplies more than like pen and markers) and, even when I told myself I was going to keep it simple, it was still taking me way too long to do each page, and I got burned out super fast (and it still didn't even look pretty, so).

i'm so uncreative i'll probably copy shit i find online lmao that SHOULD help.. maybe.. possibly. i feel like i'm gonna fall down the washi tape rabbit hole and have 500 gel pens too, though
