Though I wasn't able to finish a project that I can really brag about, I have always been fond of art materials such as colored and glitter pens, color pastel, stickers and other scrapbook materials and most of all, fancy notebooks and papers. I particularly love the hardbound diary-type notebooks and I still have quite a few notebooks of this type at home. A couple of these notebooks are half-filled with scribbles, rants and anything that’s going on my mind that time. However, writing became quite tedious, and besides, my enthusiasm decreases as time goes by thus explains the half-filled notebooks/journals. Aside from that, some of the notebooks are too beautiful to write on thus they are left sitting on the shelf with only a few pages used.
Just before the guy’s birthday, I went to the mall (with him) to look for a writing paper I can use for the birthday letter I want to give him. But since I was with him, I cannot risk buying a paper specifically for letters because I know he will know what I am up to. I went to the notebooks section and when I saw a bunch of notebooks with fancy cover with equally fancy pages, my heart jumped with joy. I knew right then that I need to get one of those and utilize the pages for the letter.
I wanted to get the hardbound notebooks but when I saw this mini-notebook, I fell in love with it - a Paris-inspired notebook. The cover and the pages depict Paris sights and spots and other things that have something to do with Paris. The pages, amazingly, have different designs - plain brown (recycled look) and pages printed with Eiffel tower, Paris map and many more. The cover (outer page) is wrapped in plastic too.
I used one of the pages for the birthday letter and thankfully, the guy liked it. He is a sucker for anything recycled and old by the way.
As of now, the pages are all blank and I don’t intend to write anything in it anytime soon. It’s too good to be used as “to do” notebook hence I am waiting for the right opportunity as to when I can use one of the pages again - when writing a letter for sure.
By the way, I got this notebook from SM Delgado Department Store school and office supplies section. Get yours now!
