Y’all. So I decided in my last post that I would try to start posting more often. However, disaster struck, and my laptop up and DIED on me. The battery was completely shot, so we brought it to a computer fixing place, where it has been for the last 5 weeks. I hate using almost all other devices, but obviously had to some. However, I didn’t want to blog on anything but my computer, but it’s been so long since I’ve done a post, that I’m just going to do it.
So, even though this is (very) late, here is my October bullet journal set up!! This was so much fun to make, because I love autumn!
For the cover page, I simply made a very fun and autumnal collage. ❤
I really like this calendar page!
By now I’ve already read several of these, lol…. I left a page blank, because I always add more books later in the month. I actually already have… XD
I wanted to do a little bit more in the book/reading department this month, so I added a couple of extra trackers.
A bucket list that I have yet to fill out… 😉 Do y’all have any ideas for it?
Also, here’s a quick tip for finding photos to use in journaling/scrapbooking – save your old calendars, and cut out the little pictures in the back where it shows you what’s all in the calendar. 😀
A daily log, where I usually put my to-do lists. I think this page turned out so cute!
And that’s the last page! I’ve been particularly enjoying using this month’s set up. It’s very cozy and autumnal. 🧡 🍁🍂
Thank you all for reading, and hopefully I will get my computer back soon, so I can continue blogging and making videos more often. 😀
Hey everyone!! Wow, it’s been so long since I’ve posted… I’ve been busy, but I have several posts coming up soon, so keep a look out for those. Meanwhile, here is my bujo set much for August!
Woah, did I just say August?!?! Crazy!!!!! I always tend to picture August as nearing the last portion of the year.
Anyway, my theme this month is very different from last month’s – basically the complete opposite.
I decided to challenge myself to do an entire set up using ONLY the black and gray! Boy, it was a challenge though…. I always natural reach for all the colorful markers and pens! However, I really like how it turned out! I didn’t think I would love it, but I like how simple and minimalistic it is.
It also goes to show that you don’t need a whole bunch of supplies to bullet journal! I only used pencil, pen and one marker – that’s pretty much it.
I had a fun idea for the calendar, and that was to simply write the date vertically down the center of the page. Then. I can just write events/special days next to the date! Then I have a goals and plans page, which I haven’t filled out yet. XD
Habit tracker – I like how the header turned out!
Gratitude log and social tracker. 🙂
You guys are probably tired of me saying this is my favorite page, but… it just is, and I have to say it. I’m so excited for the books I’m reading this month! There are a lot on here that I’ve been looking forward to for quite a long time. I already started Once I Knew, and it’s amazing!!!!!❤️ 💔
Lastly is the daily log, and it turned out a bit of a mess. The dots looked weird to me, so I tried making them smaller which helped, but I got tired of drawing them so I gave up on them on the second page. 😂 It may not be the prettiest, but it’s functional, and that’s all I really need. 😉
That’s all I did for this set up! I didn’t go all out, and only did a few pages, but I think it turned out nice. 🙂
I hope everyone has an amazing month! Hopefully I will be posting a July recap in a few days. 😀
IT’S SUMMER!! We’re also halfway through 2022… Isn’t that just so crazy?!
Nevertheless, I’m really excited about this next month! 1) SUMMER! Yay! 2) My mom and I have a trip planned, so I’m SUPER excited about that! You’ll definitely be seeing more about that after it happens. 😀
Anyway, let’s get on to my July bullet journal set up! 😀 The theme is… summer colors!
I started with a calendar, which I haven’t done in quite a long time. In fact, I don’t think that I’ve done a full sized calendar is close to a year. But I thought that I would actually use it this month, so I made one, and I love it! The designs were so fun and simple to make. 😀
This page is filled with several random trackers. 🙂
I did the books page a tiny bit different than usual – instead of drawing all the tiny boxes, I just wrote the numbers without them. It’s crazy how much time that saved, haha!
I love how the hand-lettering for July turned out on this page!!! I may have done too much confetti in the corner though, because it’s taking up a lot of space, lol..!
Next, I did a spread dedicated to our trip in a few weeks. A packing list, and a page to write down some of my highlights from the trip. Ahh, I’m so excited!!!
Lastly, I had so much fun putting together a summer bucket list. I thought of so many things that I want to do, and goals I want to complete over the next few months. 😀 I’m going to include it for you all, and hopefully you all can get some inspiration from it!

Gracious, we’re almost halfway through this year!! 😲 The month of May seemed to fly by particularly fast. It was a good month, and hopefully I’ll remember to post a recap later!
My bujo theme for June is….
🍉 Watermelon!! 🍉
I wanted to do something summer-y, even though it’s not quite summer yet. 😀
I managed to fit what I usually have in 3 pages, on 1. I actually really like how it turned out! It’s much more compact, and saves space. Besides, why do I really need an entire page to write 30 things I’m thankful for? 😂
If you’re confused about how my mood tracker is supposed to work-each day I will draw seeds on them, and the more seeds I draw, the better the day was. 😂 Although I just can’t keep from thinking of the blank watermelons as tiny, red and pink pizzas… Haha!!!
I made a highlights page, where I will just write down some of the things that particularly stood out to me in the month, and on the next page and did a social and workout tracker. I had a little bit of extra space on the bottom of the page, so I used that to include a Bible verse. 😄
My book tracking page. The blank spot on the top of the second page is because I always end up reading more books than I originally wrote down, and I want to have some space to add those in. I’m excited for this month’s books!!
Lastly, I did my daily log, where I usually put todo lists and the like. I think the watermelon font I used is so fun!
Happy June everyone! I hope you have an amazing month!! ❤️
I don’t know if anyone noticed, but I took a needed break from bullet journaling in April. I tried to put something together, but it just wasn’t working out and was getting stressful, so I just decided to skip a month. 🙂 But now I’m back, with my set up for May! The theme is…
🌸 Spring flowers!! 🌸
I didn’t feel up to doing anything super artistic on the cover page, so I decided to make a collage with some Spring-y photos and quotes I got printed recently. I think it turned out really pretty!
I did an activity tracker (which I probably should have called a workout tracker) and a sleep tracker, both of which I hadn’t done in a while. I decided that since I did nothing in April, I wanted to do extra in May, so. 😂 😁
There are several different trackers here, including a gratitude tracker, social tracker, and a little section for goals and rewards.
My favorite spread, the book tracker of course. I’m really excited about the books I’m reading this month. As you can see, I’ve already read quite a bit…. 😂 (And by the time I’m writing this I’ve already finished a couple of them….) XD
I really like how this set up turned out. My favorite thing about it is probably all of the pretty colors! I’m really excited to be getting back into bullet journaling. 😀
If you guys have any themes that you’d like to see me do in the future, please let me know in the comments. I’d love to see your ideas!!
I know that I didn’t really do anything fancy in my bullet journal last time, ditching the theme, and just doing whatever. But I’m back this month with actual cohesive and consistent theme, and I happen to love how it turned out. 😄 😁
The theme for this month is something that is very near and dear to my heart, and was suggested to me by a friend, who is even nearer, and dearer to my heart. (Hi Kyra!) XD 😁 💕
Books!!!
I’ve been wanting to do this theme, probably since I started bullet journaling almost two years ago, but the thought of so many drawing books was a bit daunting, so I put it off for forever…. But, it didn’t end up being nearly as hard as I thought it would, and I’m really happy with how the whole thing turned out. 😀
Alrighty, so the cover page is super simple. I draw the outline of an open books, did up a a small calendar, and wrote in a bookish quote. The typewriter font was super fun and cute I think, so I kind of made my main font and used it as often as I could throughout the set up. I think it fits well with the book theme!
I love the mood tracker… And the book quote…! XD
Super simple habit tracker. This is like, my go-to set up for this, and I like how it works. I love the color theme a lot, although some of them are so dark that it’s a bit hard to read the words over them. XD That’s ok though.
Again, love the colors here!! I accidentally messed up the quote a bit, but oh well. 🤣
I think you guys have heard me say that book page is my absolute favorite page ever, so I’ll refrain. Or maybe I won’t. This is my absolute favorite page ever!!! 😂 Since the whole theme is books, I added an extra page dedicated to reading. 🙂
Also, I just love that little shelf of books I drew at the bottom of the second page. 😍 It’s pretty cute, if I may say so myself… 📚
After doing it for January, I decided that I liked the free style daily log. I decorated the corners, and then I can just write to-do lists however and wherever I want on there. I find it also conserves space, so that’s good too. It’s also way funner to design!
And there you have it! This set up was surprisingly easy to do, and I just love it! 😍
Love,
Rosy ❤️ 📚

My January 2022 Bullet Journal Set Up
Ok, so to be honest, I wasn’t feeling very inspired this month. I may be a little bit burned out from spending so much time bullet journaling every single month in 2021. Half of me wanted to take a break for January, but since it’s the first month of the year, it feels kind of sad to do that. Normally I’d want to be extra for January, but this time, I ended up just doing something super simple. I think it’ll be good to get a break though, and hopefully I’m start back up as normal in February or March! (And I’ll probably end up skipping a month this year too, so. )
Alright, the theme for January is…. *GASP* I didn’t do a theme! As I said before, i was feeling un-inspired, and didn’t have clue what theme I wanted to do. So, I decided that I was just going to do whatever I wanted, and also not worry so much about making everything perfect. So if they don’t seem as nice or well thought out as normal, that’s why. 😉 And yeah, let’s just get into it!
The first thing I did, was a sunset circle kind of thing in the middle of the page. However, due to my apparent and obvious lack of colored pencil blended abilities, I absolutely hated, and didn’t have a clue what to do with it. So I walked away for awhile, and came back to it a bit later when I was feeling less frustrated. I decided to do a zen tangle all around the edges of the page, and after that was done, I liked it much better!! Other than the terrible hand-lettering of the word “January”, I think it’s pretty good, haha!
In my habit tracker, I accidentally made two spots bigger than the rest, which caused great distress for a few minutes. I just went with it though, and you can hardly see it now 😉
The mood tracker is a… you know, I’m not sure what it is. A page full of geometric shapes. 😂 Maybe it’s a stained glass window.
I like the theme of this page!
As awhiles, my favorite page! Here’s a glimpses of some of the books I’m planning on reading this month. (I’ve already finished that last one, which I’m reading out loud to my siblings!)
For my daily log, I did something super simple and just did a pretty design at the top. I didn’t even section of portions for days – I figured I’d just write down the date wherever I was at on the page. I think it’s working pretty well!
I think this is so pretty!! 😀 ❤️
As you can see, I didn’t do as many pages as I usually do, and that’s ok. I think it’ll be good to have a tiny break, and get re-motivated. Whatever the case, I’m really excited to see what January, and 2022 holds!! 😀
Love,
Rosy ❄️ 💕
What are some of your New Year’s Resolutions? What are you looking forward to in 2022? What are you reading this month?
Making this December spread was a lot of fun, and really got me into the Christmas spirit. I’m really excited to use it this coming month!!
The theme for December, of course, is everything Christmas. Red and green, candy canes and other Christmas-y stuff abound! 😀 🎄
I quite like how the cover page turned out! 😀
I used a candy cane lettering for some of the headers, and drew some fun Christmas lights for the mood tracker. It will be fun to see the different colors at the end of the month!
The Bible and books I’m planning on reading this month, as well as a small social media tracker for my blog and youtube posts. 🙂
A sleep tracker and daily highlights page. The black dotted lines on the sleep tracker is my ideal sleeping schedule. It will be good to see the difference between that, and how much I really end up sleeping by the end of December.
This was a fun spread!! I made up a bucket list of several of the Christmas or winter-y things I want to do this month. I still have a couple empty spots – do you guys have any more ideas? And the next page is a few of my favorite Christmas songs. 🙂
And lastly, my daily log! I love the colors here!
I enjoyed making this, and I’m so excited to get into December and Christmas season! It’s definitely one of my favorite times of the year. 🙂
Love,
Rosy ❤️ 🎄
What are you most looking forward to in December? What’s on your Christmas bucket list?
Hey guys! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT’S NOVEMBER?!?!?! (Just about) It’s so crazy!!! This year seems to be going by insanely fast. XD
I did the November set up in a hurry, because I didn’t start until yesterday, and really wanted to get this posted today at the latest. Plus, I’m really sick, so that was a little bit difficult. XD So if the set up seems a bit rushed and not as well done as normal, that’s why. 😉
My theme for November is….. Tea and coffee! I chose this theme because I love hot drinks during fall, and I wanted to choose something that I loved for my birthday month. 😀 ☕️ Now on to the cover page!
I put off doing this page till the very end, because I really wasn’t sure what to do. I was sick, and I wasn’t feeling very artsy…! In the end I drew a simple tea cup, and colored that in with watercolor. I really like how it turned out though!
My mood tracker turned out a little wonky in my opinion, as I wasn’t really paying attention to keeping all the tea bags the same size…. Oh well, I really like the next page, so that makes up for the chaos on the other side, haha! Also, I realized just now that I haven’t yet colored in the mug, and chosen colors for the mood tracker. Oh well, y’all get the idea! 😉
A really simple thankful log and sleep tracker. 🙂
Bible and book reading, and a social media tracker. 🙂 I’ve written in some of what I’m planning on reading. I’m really looking forward to reading November’s books!!!!
Next, I did up a few for fun, fall pages. 😀 These are some of the things on my Autumn bucket list, which I hope to accomplish most of during November. Hopefully I’ll post about completing them later in the month! 😀
This next page is quite boring so far. We’ll see if I can color-fy it later. Anyway, something fun I love doing sometimes is celebrating random, fun national holidays. These are all real holidays, and though I’m sure I won’t be able to observe them every day, it’ll be fun to do something when I can. And hmm, maybe I could post about doing that sometime…. Would you guys be interested?
And lastly, my weekly log, which is really simple, but I really like how it looks. 🙂
And there you have it! Despite the huge rush, I do like how it turned out. I’m sooo excited for November! 😀
Love,
Rosy ☕️ ❤️
Which page do you like best? What are you looking forward to in November?
IT’S FALL!!! I’ve been looking forward to autumn for a while, and I’m so excited it’s finally here! Autumn is one of my favorite seasons. 🙂 🍁 🍂 😄 YAY for fall!!
So of course, my theme for October is… Autumn! 😀
The cover page is a lot more complicated than I normally make, but I really love how it turned out!! It’s soo fall-y! XD 😀
Next we have a quote made (Which I love!!), and A Line a Day. 🙂
Habit and Mood Tracker. 🙂
Sleep Tracker, Bible Reading Tracker and my social tracker. 🙂
So far I have only a couple of books written down, but don’t worry – the entire page will fill up before long. 😁 For now, here’s just the corner of the page that I have. XD
And lastly, here’s my daily log, which I think turned out really nice and atumn-y. 😄 🍂
And there we have it! This is one of my favorite set ups I’ve ever done. 🍁 Did I mention I love Autumn? I love coziness, reading books and drinking tea, all the pretty colors… I’m really looking forward to doing all the autumn-y things, and checking off my bucket list (which I hope to post later!)
Anyway, we have a two week trip coming up the day after tomorrow (which I’m SO excited about!), so I have to go continue getting ready. So I won’t be posting for a couple of weeks and my September Recap may be a few days late, but I’ll be back soon, hopefully with some fall posts! 😀
Love,
Rosy ❤️ 🍁
P.S. Even though this was posted today, I actually wrote it on September 22, at 4:30 PM. XD So when you read this, assuming you read it shortly after being posted, we’ll probably be on our trip and having an amazing time. 🙂 Consequently, I may not be on the computer to moderate and answer comments, but I will soon. Have a great day!! ❤
What’s your favorite season? Do you prefer “Fall” or “Autumn”?
