Hello, 2020!

Happy New Year, my friends! I hope you welcomed 2020 with happy hearts and merry bellies. 

I am always excited to welcome a new year because a new year means new planners and journals.

This year I have three: a 2020 Essentials Planner, a TN-sized fauxbonichi from Mommy Lhey Designs that was part of my #EatPlanLove2019 loot bag, and a Belle de Jour 2020 Power Planner (Leather edition).

I customized my 2020 Essentials Planner with travel tickets. :)

I love its minimalist interface that lets me customize every page however which way I want it. Aside from using it to jot down my to do's for the week, I also write here anything I need to note. Everything goes, and there really is no specific category for its contents.

As for my Traveler's Notebook-sized fauxbonichi, I don't have anything written on it yet but I was already able to set it up. I am planning to use it as a diary/ journal where I can record my thoughts and feelings.

Pretty, yes? It's a watercolor painting by my friend Meream, in the cover of a TN-sized insert. Visit her work here and here.

Lastly, I will be using my Belle de Jour 2020 Power Planner for day-to-day planning and work schedule.

There is value in putting pen to paper, and I proved that once again when I was preparing my 2020 Planner's Dream Board. I printed out photos from my El Nido trip to include in my Dream Board, and what do you know, I got amazing news even before I glued the photos!

You can view the rest of its inside pages here.

There is value in writing things down, and every year I list down my goals here on the blog and on my journal. For 2020, I would like for my Word of the Year to be FOCUS. I intend to give undivided attention to whatever I am doing or whoever I am with in the moment, and just be present.

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* Happy New Year, everyone! *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

May 2020 be bright and bold and colorful!
