I thought I was the only one who had endless journals for different topics! I always feel so guilty when I get a new one... but I'm addicted to journals!
😊😊
Me too...I always find super cute notebooks though
Same
They always trick us w those pretty covers and stuff.. almost gets me every time...
Me too
Youre so organized! I literally just dump everything in one book 😂
loser me too😁 though I've a separate one for monthly review
but that works too, if you consistently use it for everything you won't loose a thought either :-)
haha I used to do that before too! some of my notebook pages are still random :P
I have a cheap little black notebook that I use for absolutely everything and I love it to pieces although I really could do with separating stuff out for organisations sake xD
Same!
Who else has a collection of notebooks, but is too scared to write in it and mess it up 😂
you can't mess up your own ideas and thoughts, just let it flow. The more you let yourself go, the easier it will become through time and experience. Don't let your fears win, you can do it.
Yesssss I do that I have like a box of notepads lol
Me
i have like 4 journals and i'm scared of writing in them cause i might mess up or something same sis 😂
Me! 🙋🏻♀️ i get one for a purpose, then worry that i may stop half way through and change my mind or just that i won’t finish it or follow through.
I love how your journals are simple, just a pen and without all those fancy writing and over decorated journals I usually see online and demotivate me because I feel like I 'll never have a journal that beautiful. I mean, your journals look just like mine (and all of us, mortals) and I love that :)
Beatriz Ramos so true. I think it's a waste of time prettifying journals but then maybe because I'm not creative
Idk man... this demotivates me too. Her handwriting is way too neat and there's so much written!! If I tried to write all that on one page in a single sitting my hand would cramp up really bad, plus it would look awful, with weird sizing and it would take me forever.
Yeah if u decorate ur journals so fancy u'll focus more on the decorations but not the things on ur mind that ur actually writing down
Oh I know. I used to decorate my journals with lots of colors and they looked decent but once I'd hop on Pinterest I'd feel discouraged and less satisfied with what I'd created. I got over it and eventually enjoyed simpler set ups more but I can definitely relate
This has 666 likes i cant do this
1. Stream of consciousness - morning pages
2. Bedside journal - braindump before bed
3. Monthly highlights
4. Gratitude, Joy, and Success journal
5. Current me Vs future me
6. Doodles and sketches
7. Poetry, songwriting, chord progressions, melodies
8. Travel journal
9. Note taking for online classes and tutorials
10. Planning and scheming
11. Free form art
Thanks that really saved my time!
So useful thanks 💐
thank you!
I was gonna do this but thx for doing it for me 😂😂
Well, thank you for writing all these things in here....you really helped me A lot ..
If I had this many notebooks, I would need one more just to keep track which is which :D
😂😂😂😂
Ghadir! !!!Bts!!!! Bts? Army?
Ghadir! !!!Bts!!!! Army!!
cham yadgar BTS is irrelevant in this.
Ineffable // but that commenter was an army though? geez, it's just an observation s/he made, no need for hostility :/
I always had tons of notebooks but never ended using up all of them! Maybe I'll start journaling- I hear it's really helpful
it is!!
Journals are a blessing for my anxiety.🙏🏼💜
Such a pretty, useful and inspiring video - thank you! I have 4 different journals: travel memories (+ shoe boxes full of tickets, city maps and flyers from everywhere I have been), to do's and operative stuff, creative journal, learning journal.
nice!! I also keep a shoebox of tickets & things too :)
I have this problem where I keep buying pretty notebooks because I promise myself that I'm actually gonna use it but I end up not using it because it's too pretty! >.< I really love the idea of the gratitude, joy, and success journal though, so I'm gonna start doing that
Michelle Anne You and I are in the same ⛵ 😄
Hahaha same here! :D
Michelle Anne Army 🌸
i admire the way you write spontaneously, and the layouts are kept simple and effortless, so you could really focus on the flow of thoughts instead. on most days, my journal is a mess of thoughts, art, to-do's, vents, and plans 😂 maybe i should separate them as well. thanks 💕
that's okay too! :) whatever works best for you
jolina ! I agree! I never know how I have to start in my new notebook and it needs to be right from the first page 😂
lmao if i did stream of consciousness journalling it'd just be profanity after profanity
lmao.same
😂😂 let it all out girl
kaitlyn s k y thats the same thing i was thinking 😂😂
kaitlyn s k y LOL.
kaitlyn s k y What does profanity mean??
This was such a unique video idea! I need to organize my journals and scrap notes better! 😆
Ava Elizabeth Wouldn't call it unique. Videos like this are a trend right now :D
Rayowag Oh cool! It's the first one I've seen :)
😊
Ava Elizabeth oh. My. God👳👳👳👳👳
1.) stream of consciousness (0:14)
- every morning you just write what goes in your head; don’t filter it
2.) bedside journal (0:33)
- brain dump emotions, ideas, etc before you go to bed
3.) monthly highlights (0:47)
- a recap of each month; people that i saw, places i went
4.) gratitude/joy/success journal (1:01)
- at least once a week; small victories, etc
5.) current me vs future (1:16)
- on one side you draw yourself as you are now, your traits, things like that; on the other side you draw an idealized version of yourself, who you want to be
6.) doodles & sketches (1:35)
- self explanatory
7.) poetry & songwriting (1:46)
- chord progressions, ideas i got from melodies
8.) travel journal (2:06)
- you can keep things like receipts you got when you went to another country, all the cities u’ve visited when you went to that country
9.) notes for learning
- when you take online tutorials
10.) planning & scheming (2:52)
- mind maps, any creative projects you have
11.) free form journal (3:35)
- random free forming art, throw up on the page, do anything
Who else when they start writing in a notebook they use some nice handwriting but at the end it’s a total hot mess
Lol yes
Did you steal my school books? 😂
Mines the other way round I’ll start a notebook and write something trash and draw bad lol then I regret it late
my writing changes per day even though people might see it like it's the EXACT SAME
so... for me.. it's always a mess :)
My obsession with collecting notebooks lead to me designing my own collection 😅 If you haven't seen the Pastel Notebooks by Lavendaire, check them out here! → lavendaire.com/notebooks
My favorite way to use them is for my daily morning pages. What's your favorite way to journal?
I just make mine like a chapter book. 😂
I like using it for monthly highlights!
how are there only two replies?

I'm thinking of putting all these ideas in one notebook😂
That's honestly what I did, I would just write or draw whatever I wanted too in that notebook without having seperate ones or having to be neat, it's so much fun

What pens do you use?
Can I just say, you have an adorable voice. Thanks for these ideas; specifically LOVED the idea of drawing who you are and who you want to be along with journaling.
:) thanks!
I have a evening journaling for gratitude/appreciation, my regular journal for all my thoughts, emotions, q&a, and conscious stream of writing and then I have my bullet journal for all my ideas, to-do lists, memories, goals, affirmations. Love how you are so organized!
i like the simplicity of your system! :)

Understandable
If i did a stream of consciousness journal I'd be ranting about chicken nuggets every day
OMG MOOD
Laney Smith okay tho same
This is beautiful
With me it should all be abou why I have to get up so early and I can’t eat chocolate the whole day :/
My daughter is going to start a "dream" journal
Bunbun Bun why is dream in quotations
why is dream in quotations?
sharkboy and lavagirl omg
Why is dream in quotations?
This concerns me
I love how your journal is not filled with pretty doodles and stickers. It's really just you writing what comes to your mind which I love because I'm the type of person who loves to brain dump everything and the fact that I stumbled upon a RUclipsr who does exactly that is what I need in my life! Thank you Aileen! You're the reason why I got back into journaling.
I love the monthly highlights, current me vs. future me, & travel journal ideas. I might try these.
I love this video 💕its the only journal video I've seen with actual creative and different ideas from all the basic ideas of what to do with a journal that I've watched on RUclips
glad you liked it!
Love your channel ! This video was very helpful & will definitely try these out ! Love ya 💜 💜
Love this and the idea of separate books, it's essential. Currently, I have one for introspection, content creation, exercise routines and random thoughts. You inspire me to write more and create the travel journal for future reference!
Thank you for sharing this video. I've been stuck in a journal slump and when you mentioned the night journal it inspired me to get started again
ah thank youu this is what i needed
Interesting. You are really good at drawing and painting.
Please make a content about colouring therapy. Now it is on trend. I tried it and I could feel something relaxing about it. Please try that.
Keep on your good work Aileen Xu.
color therapy would be a great topic!
:) thanks! I haven't checked out color therapy, I'll look into it
rathi venkatesh I have done art therapy before and it was very healing ! Sounds similar and curious about colour therapy
I love how direct and fast you are, no annoying intro with a hello sweeties, no rants...
omg, so many to write & draw on different journals! you're very creative and well-organized too. I only keep 1 journal & 1 sketchbook at the time.
I have a burn book lol

ugh i wish i had one :'o
I really needed this! I have an obsession with buying notebooks and most of them don’t usually end up being used. This is a huge help!
I am in love with how organized you are 😍 this is amazing. 💕👍🏻
I love the idea of journaling! It creates such a nice kind of a souvenir from your younger self to your older self. So people can always come back to a certain point of their lives and remember what was like to be there. I regret I didn't start journaling earlier.
I am so sad because youtube recommended me this awesome video after 3 years 🙁🙁🙁
1:42 "Random doodles" manages to flip to the most amazing picture in the entire book...
XD really like it tho
I don't know why but that was just such a satisfying video! I always carry a notebook to jot down anything and everything. I have a grateful journal, a planner, an academic notebook, and a list book! so good!
Just bought some notebooks and this video helped me a lot with what i will be writing/drawing in them! Thank you for sharing!
i have like 27268 empty notebooks on my shelf and keep buying more and more. nice video
This might sound strange but the second I heard your voice I subscribed. It's so calming!
I like how you just get right into the video. Much appreciated!
I love collecting notebooks. Just did a short video on this 👌🏼 Love your ideas.
thanks for sharing !! you are such an inspiration
Wow i love 💞
U are such an inspiration and I really wanna thank you for making these videos. U are one of the most helpful RUclipsrs I know
It's the video I was searching for! Thnx. It's marvelous!
I love your Artist of Life journal for looking back to see what I have achieved month by month. Also the exercise to review 2016 was great. I was thinking it was a bit of a nothingness year but, when I reflected on each area of my life, a lot of great things had happened. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to AoL 2018 :-)
so glad you like it!!
You're so creative with your notebooks.
i love this video lavandaire! thanks for sharing. i usually think there is suppose to be 'one journal' that you do but i like the way you organize your thoughts! maybe i will expand.
This is AMAZING! I always have so many notebooks and never know what to do with them so these are great ideas. Thank you do much for sharing this inspiration. 🙌🏼
This is awesome , just as you are. I have a question, where do you keep those journals?
Thumbs up! Nice Note books!
I love this! It's been hard to spread my mind out across a variety of different things. Gonna try to stick to paper now. Something about it is so therapeutic
You seriously write so neatly i luv it so much!
I love these ideas! but Im not one that can have a ton of journals. Gonna see how i can incorporate everything into one book heh!
I love this idea, although I can never stay organised enough to have one journal for each thing 🌸
I needed this! Way too many nice notebooks and no ideas anymore. Thank you❤️
Finally some NEW ideas!!! Thank you!!
These are such good ideas Aileen! I am going to start filling in my notebooks and journals with these ideas.
Hi! Could you please tell where did you get these journals? They are all so cute💕💕
I know I know
I am late and i found you when I had no absolute idea how to fill up my journal. Seriously, I had no idea how to make it interesting.
I found you and love your ideas, it's really interesting and unique. I love the first idea.
And one more thing I want to point out is your voice is so soothing ,❤
Have lovely day/night.
current me vs. future me was a little like some things I'd seen before, but it was different, too. such an awesome idea
i feel like i seriously need to start doing things like this. my head is such a mess. LOL ! maybe this is why i stress out easily and cant fall asleep xD thanks for sharing :)
WHO CAN RELATE?
me: haah, i filled my notebok at lassssssstttttttttttt
also meh: omg i got nothing to write onn!!!!!!!!!!!!!
love this video, it makes me wanna fill up all the spare notebooks I have right now! + it has such calming and soothing vibes
If it's not on paper...it will never get done! 😀
We need to remind ourselves daily of our goals..otherwise we float through life!...✏📝➡🏆= ✔...thanks for the advice!
Ayo it's been 3 yrs u there
I’m very late but this was super inspiring
Love this. ✨so inspiring. Makes me wanna write in my journals again.
I always get ideas from you so thank youuuu! I think I'm going to keep a monthly happiness journal, I have written about the past months too so I can start from January :)
does anyone know the song used? it sounds like a version of The Avatar's Love.. i'm so curious to know what it is!
here's the song: soundcloud.com/thisisakay/iroh
thank you!! seeing that it is inspired by Avatar and i was still able to pick it up this many years later.. my younger self would be so proud lol
huniverse yes!! i recognized the song too!
huniverse I immediately recognized it! Reminds me of Katara ...
YASSS
*me: has 10 notebooks and i’ve still not written anything in those 10 notebooks*
*also me: BUYS ANOTHER NOTEBOOK*
I did write some feelings and ideas sometimes in a diary but I never thaught we could organise our life events like this ,so amazingly !! Thannku so much !♥
Mind. Blown. Seriously love this so much. Just discovered your channel and your podcast!
Best video RUclips has ever seen. I found it extremely inspiring. I want to ask you something: what do you think I should do as I am constantly writing, am obsessed with beautiful journals of all kinds and own many of them, BUT have recently adopted a bad habit of writing nearly everything down on my phone's notepad🙄 It really sucks but it feels like my mind just forgot how important and awesome it is to keep your writings and plans organized in actual notebooks, and I can't seem to remind it of it. It's frankly like I'm trying to quit smoking, I know I should start carrying notebooks with me again, I know it's important, yet I just can't. This might sound odd to someone who doesn't connect to writing as much but it's really an issue for me. Please help😶😄
I also keep a TON of notes on my phone too! It's not a bad thing. If you want to journal on paper more, make time to do it in the morning or evening. And keep a journal at your desk so you can write down ideas when you want. Anyway, don't let it get you down. It should be fun & peaceful. Good luck!
Lavendaire Thank you☺️💛💛
me: **buys a really cute and nice notebook**
also me: **doesnt use it because i dont wanna mess if up**
Thank you for this video! I have plenty of ideas now for filling up my new emty notebook!
I have watch alot of videos on how to fill your notebooks. Your ideas are the best ever!! Thankyou.
Wow
You have a lot of journals. How you use them all, all the time?
no i only use about 3-4 at a time: my morning & evening journals, my learning notes, and my planning + scheming one. The others I will only use randomly when I feel like it. Some of these are old (2012-2015) and completely filled up so obviously I don't use them anymore :)
Yes, I saw some are old, I don't know how you can constantly use journals? In my journals I write a few pages and then I don't feel motivated to write daily. I don't know how you do it :)
My morning one would just be
(Date)
(Title)
I’m tired. I want to go back to sleep. I love breakfast. Ugh I have to get ready.
Same i have no time in the morning when I have school but it's super refreshing to do on weekend mornings with a cup of tea :)
This is the best,you made me so happy,your the one who made me use my millions of notebook cause i keep on buying notebooks with no reason!!!!thx😚😙🤗
Oh my gosh, I don't even think I have time to write so many things in so many journals with so little time. I really admire how you or other people manage to do it.❤️
can you do a video where you ralk about your study abroad in Italy??
your phone case is so cute. where is it from?
sanrio!
Such brilliant ideas and journal practices. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you so much Aileen, you have a soothing voice and I am learning and growing from you, I appreciate you good luck
Is that Avatar the last Airbender/The Legend of Korra music I hear???
Annie Grace EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING😂😂
Annie Grace That was my first mind😂
Where do you keep the journals?! I'm sure they are tucked away neatly. :)
yes i keep them on my bookshelf & some in a drawer by my bed
want to start journaling but did not know how to start and stay organized and this definitely helped me a lot! Thank you very much!
Love how organized you are, Aileen!! :)
How do y'all have so many blank notebooks while when somebody buys me about a dozen notebooks, they're all filled with drawings within a week
