On a shelf on my desk, I have a stack of notebooks and journals. They're all top secret and super important, and I can't show you what's inside.
Just kidding. Of course I'll show you!
The first book in the stack is
this little one. I use it to keep track the books I read, and I jot down a few thoughts about each book. I know there's other ways to do this (such as goodreads.com) but I love to have it down on paper, too.
I love this notebook - my sister got it for me in Paris. It took me a while to decide what to use it for, because I wanted to use it for something special. I eventually decided on using it for my favorite quotes. It's filling up quickly!
This is my travel diary. When I go on a trip to a different country, I write about all the different things I do and see each day, so I can remember it better afterwards. So far, it's got entries from two countries - Switzerland and Scotland.
So - Wreck This Journal. This book is crazy. Each page has a task to do - for instance, there's one that says "spill coffee on this page", and one that tells you to crack the spin of the book (oh the horror!). Everyone needs this book in their lives.
At present, this journal is 100% empty. It's always good to have a couple of those lying around.
Last but not least, there's My Future Listography. My sister gave this to me (she gives me the coolest stuff). I've mentioned before that I really love making lists - so this book is perfect. There's hundreds of lists to be made in here.
And that's it! Those are six books that I clutter up my desk with.
The three things that I hope you learned from this post are:

The three things that I hope you learned from this post are:
1. I don't have cool hand-writing, and it's a terrible pity.
2. I should have used the Paris notebook as my travel diary.
3. Whatever they may say, at least I'm good at scribbling.
Now tell me - what do you clutter up your desk with?
love,
Hannah
