September Habit Tracker
In September I decided to try a habit tracker for the first time and it worked out pretty well. My goal was to track my journaling and blogging habits and except for my blogging and diary habit, I am pretty satisfied with how much time I spent journaling.
About my set up
I decided to go with five columns. One for each type of journal I am using at the moment, one for my Instagram and one for my blog. For October I also added a sixth column to track my studying habit since my exams are coming up again this month.
About each column
Bullet Journal: Of course I use my bullet journal every day, mostly for school, things I have to get done and stuff I should remember, but I don’t tick the box every day. If I spent more time then usual, for example, to set up a new spread, I will tick the box.
Art Journal: This column is pretty self-explanatory. Whenever I draw something into my art journal I will color the box. Sometimes if I spent a lot of time drawing something else, for example on other paper, I will color the box too. I definitely want to use my art journal more often again.
Diary: I will tick this bix whenever I write something in my diary. For some reason, I stopped writing at the end of the month and haven’t picked it up again. I don’t really have enough time for it at the moment and don’t really know what to write about. I will definitely work on journaling way more in my diary in October but I don’t want to force myself to write.
Instagram: Ever time I post a picture on Instagram I color in the Instagram box. As you can see I kind of ran out of things to post for a week because I was so busy. Luckily I have caught up again recently.
Blog: I really need to blog more but I really need more time and more Ideas. Maybe you could tell me in the comments what you would like to read in the future.
How was your September? Did you get to do anything exciting that month?

I Haven’t Written A Poem
I haven’t written a poem or story for a while now.
For some reason, I haven’t been in the right mood.
Maybe it’s because I have been too happy?
I haven’t had a reason to try escaping reality.
I didn’t need to escape into other worlds,
and pain is just so much easier to describe.
But who am I?
Complaining about being too happy.
I should be thankful,
but on the other half, I am human,
and humans never seem to be satisfied with what they have.

My Morning Plan
On Monday I will have to go back to school. I cannot believe that my six weeks of summer are already over. A lot of things happened. The strangest of all might be that I started getting up way earlier than I had to. I usually do not get out of bed before the last minute. I am even writing this early in the morning.
I really want to keep this habit of getting up way earlier than I have to. This is why I created a morning plan spread in my bullet journal. Other people might call it a morning routine but since it is not my routine yet I decided to call it a plan. My morning plan is supposed to help me with getting up as early as I want to and this is how it looks:
6:30 Get up
6:35-7:00 Journal/ Read/ Listen to music (get ready for the day)
7:00-7:15 Get dressed
7:15-7:30 Prepare lunch and eat breakfast (!don’t skip breakfast!)
7:35 Leave the house
This is what I want my mornings to look like in the future. I left a little bit space so I can experiment with how it is working. For example, I never need 15 minutes to get dressed, but it is a way to start.
Do you have a specific morning routine?

6 Reasons To Journal
I am a huge journaling addict. At the moment I have three different journals and I journal every day in at least one of them. There are so many reasons why I love journaling and why I think everybody should try it sometime.
- There are so many types of journals, whether they help you stay organized like a bullet journal, are a place for your creative outlet like an art journal, a place for your travel memories like a creative journal or just there to listen to your thoughts like a diary. There is a journal for everyone and every situation.
- There is no time limit. You can journal whenever and how often you want. You don’t have to do it on a daily or weekly basis you can do it whenever you feel like it.
- Your journal is always there to listen to you and nothing makes me feel better as writing down my thoughts and dealing with whatever is going on on paper.
- Your journal your rules. You can do whatever you want with your journal. You can drown or burn it, you could even eat it if you want to. You can make it look as pretty as possible or as ugly as possible. You decide if you want to share it or not and you decide what to put in it.
- There is no right or wrong. No matter what you do if helps you feel better and relaxed it is the right thing to do and even if it doesn’t help it is the right thing to at least try it out.
- Journaling helps you realize things you would never realize otherwise. While journaling I have learned so many things about myself and other people in my life I would never have realized without journaling.
Do you keep any kind of a journal? If yes what is your favorite thing about journaling?
