@Mariya Rahman Yeah. It was on and off at first; I only documented when something "noteworthy" happened. but then in 2019, I decided to journal every day. it can be work to do that, especially when I'm traveling, but it's been worth it. Especially over the last 2 years. I really want to look back and know what I've been doing and thinking through this major lifetime event.

Yes! A youtuber finally says you can journal in a composition notebook! I watched a ton of journaling videos and I haven’t seen anyone use a composition notebook. Whereas I’ve been journaling for almost seven years and the majority of what I’ve used has been compositions! I love your videos Carrie!

My first journal was a composition book. Though it was a wide riled book, it cost about $2.00 for almost 200 pages. I like composition books because the year can bo written on the front cover. At the beginning of the school year, they sometimes are discounted like 3 for $4.00 or something. A4 sized sketch books are great too.

Carrie just feels more comfortable with using Spirale notebooks and hardcover journals. I mean, that’s all I’ve ever used when I’ve journaled.

55 seconds: that is my favorite type of journal to write it because it reminds me of a real book and I have to say The Diary Of Anne Frank got me started. As to writing down the time with the date, I laughed because I was doing that for almost three years now and for a year I have also been writing down the day and night temperatures for future references.

I have been journaling basically since I was in third grade when I first got a journal for Christmas. I use to write stories in them but since high school, I started keeping a journal for my thoughts and feelings. I am now in my early to mid-20s and I think keeping a journal by my side helps a lot. Where do you keep all of your finished journals? I don't know where to keep all of my finished journals!

That’s so awesome that you’ve been journaling for so long and that you’ve kept up with it!! I have my journals stacked in a really big drawer of mine. I’m debating on bringing them to college with me because they do take up space (I’ve already talked to my roommate about it and she’s fine with it!). I would probably keep them in a closet or under my bed to save space in the dorm. I never like to leave them right out in the open just for some peace of mind

I just randomly started to journal and I haven't regretted any second of it. I don't usually write about my day but mostly my feelings. It's nice to just vomit 4 pages of writing instead of overthinking about it for days. The part I enjoy the most about journaling is re-reading the things I wrote. It's really useful when you have pages of feelings to read when you start overthinking again and you're ok right after!

honestly i started journaling in grade one as well! I got inspired to start it up from books i read like dear dumb diary, dork diaries, etc. when i first was planning on getting into it i hyped it up and my friends wanted to as well so we all took our ten dollar bills to the school book fair and got ourselves each a puppy diary with a lock and key and all. I took so much inspiration of formatting from the books and that format has still stuck with me.That was the beginning of my experiences. Every year I keep a journal or two and a year later i look back at all of them, wanting to burn them cuz they're so embarrassing but i still kept them becuase i knew i would hate myself as an adult if i did. Psa to anyone with old journals or sketchbooks or any embarrassing things you had as a child: dont burn them! They may be embarrassing now but in your adulthood youll look back and laugh, or they will take you to a place of nostalgia you cant get back.

This was two years ago but I can’t stop watching your contacts because it’s just teaching me about so many things and I just finished writing something in my journal that is really important to me and is sort of a lot more pressure off my shoulders to just let it go out of my mind I had so many thoughts that are just on my mind and it feels was so good she just let them off of my mind

Thank you! I'm 50, and my mom said that I should start a journal, and I am so glad she did, because my life is not what I want it to be, and I think this will build momentum in my life. Thank you again!

I have been journaling since 3rd grade and now I'm in 5th grade it's been a pretty fun experience, iam totally in love with it and Iam think to strat daily journaling 💜

I’ve been journaling since I was 18 (shortly before going into my freshman year of college). I’m 24 now. My entries are a lot like yours (self-reflection, how my day went, “brain dumps”, etc.) and I’ve dappled with bullet-journaling but it never stuck. I also like to type longer essays, and sometimes if I don’t have a notebook on me I’ll write it down on loose-leaf and glue it into whatever journal I am working on. As of today, I have 5 full journals!

I ALSO sometimes do bullited lists when I journal because I find it easier, more convenient, and very helpful.

Ive been journaling since 2020, i have about 5 journals. I draw pictures in the diary of a wimpy kid style. The books i use are the wimpy kid blank journal.I recently started year 7 so it is special to look back at my old journals because they are drom when i was in primary school. Im hoping i have journals for the rest of my life

This helped a lot! I remember when I was in 1st grade and I was journaling, a I wish I never used a yellow crayon ;-;

This are the type of journal I was lookin for ages!

I’m 34. My oldest journal is from 1998 when I was 10. Lol. It’s goofy! I wrote a lot more when I was younger and I just wrote. Nothing fancy. In my teens, I used LiveJournal but printed everything before closed them and still have them. I quit doing either by the time I was 18ish but I’m getting back into it and I’m using it as a creative outlet too. Loving markers and stickers and all that.

Hi ! I've been watching your journal videos for 3 days, I'm actually enjoying those ! Your way to journaling is how I feel about it. When I was young, a friend offer me my first journal. I've never been constant on writting every day, but I wrote when I need it. This journal is not finished but one year ago I wrote the last entry. I've actually a bullet journal since september 2017. At the beggining I just wrote list, but now I'm writting e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g that is in my mind. I write to do list for the day, then once the day is off, I write about my day, and the next morning I write my dreams of the night. I'm affraid to write a lot of things because I will finish my journal in a month ! But I'm ok with it. This is what I need now, may be the next month will not be the same or it will x). Big kiss from a little french girl. I'm sorry for my bad english but I like to practice by watching journal videos. :3

I've always loved art I've drawn since I was 4 I'm so good and put it in my creative book and put pictures to recognise all my old stuff

I love to write what I’m thinking, whatever narrative is going on inside my head. It’s like I’m transferring the very essence of my thoughts from the ethers of my mind onto the paper in my journal; transforming them from an intangible construct in my head into inked words on a page that I can physically see and read. I even feel a sense of mental clarity afterword, as if each thought I write leaves my mind space to take shape with the stokes of my pen in my journal. The only real comparison I can think of that can adequately describe this process is the scenes in the Harry Potter books involving the magical item known as the pensieve.
