April bullet journal setup / Changing things and starting over

You might be wondering why I am starting fresh with a bullet journal at the beginning of April and I have a reason I swear. It’s coffee. How’s that? Well I took my bullet journal with me in the kitchen to write something while drinking coffee. I touched the cup with my hand and it went all over my bujo. So here is a new one and it’s new spread haha.

PIN ME FOR LATER

THE FIRST PAGE AND MY YEAR OVERVIEW

With the beginning of my new bullet journal I have decided to stop drawing things and start making more easy compact spreads. That’s the reason why the first page only indicates the year we are in in letters. Also, the little black heart is a sticker I have found a long time ago.

After this first page, I separated the pages into 3 parts that hold the calendar for each month until December.

BLOG RELATED PAGES

The next 2 pages are dedicated to my blog. This was a spread that existed in my old bullet journal too. On the left I am going to write any posts ideas that I have and on the right I am going to write any collaboration / earning that I will have from my blog.

APRIL CALENDAR

This one stayed the same. Really simple and effective as always. I chose the yellow color for this month as it is representative for April. You can check this link if you don’t know what color to pic for every month in your bullet journal.

APRIL HABIT TRACKER

This one is a new one. As you can see, I decided to skin the drawings I used to make left to the calendar and tried this little habit tracker instead. The meaning of the little drawings are (from top to bottom: workout; healthy eating; intermittent fasting; meditation )

THIS MONTH / BRAIN DUMP

This one is also new. I wanted to have some place to write the important things for that month as well as my expenses. I also decided to have a place for the books I have read that month and a free place for any upcoming thought.

The “brain dump” page I want to use to write any thought I have in this new month. Mini experiences or things that might happen in April. Something like a mini diary page.

DAILY SPREAD

This one got a new look too. I don’t know yet how this is going to work but I have decided to only draw it for the first week and then continue doing it for every new week just to see how things progress. This gives me more space for everything that I have to do.
