BuJo is becoming more and more popular currently because of all the customization elements you can add to it. It is the ultimate way that you can plan out your schedule and track all sorts of different aspects of your life. From health and mood trackers, to weekly spreads, to your bucket list and favorite quotes, there are endless possibilities to logging your life in a bullet journal of your own.

Let's start with what you need...a journal, some funky pens and so much more! Here are the supplies that I got for my bujo.

Leuchttrum 1917 journal.
A variety of pens.
Washi tape, stickers.
Stencils.
Post-its/dividers.
Follow IG accounts for inspiration @bullet.jornals, @bulletjournal.idea

I recently started a #bujo of my own on January 1^st, 2018. So far, I have found that the best way to get your creative juices flowing is to research different layouts, fonts, and planning spreads before you permanently draw them into your journal.

As an art major, I have found doodling particularly frustrating. I know…weird right? Bullet journaling gives you the perfect amount of creative freedom to make your journal as elaborate or plain as you want.

This year, I wanted to try to create something that I would have forever- a cross between a diary and a scrapbook- that is customized for me, by me.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
