i have goal of trying to make my buju a little bit more artsy this year, cause until now it's been strictly practical ... because i can't draw. and i wanna learn to draw, at least some simple things
but yeah, i'm literally dependent on my buju, cause it's the only calendar i use. without it i would have been a mess

thank you! it's my first time watching them cause i wanted to read all the books first, and though i've enjoyed them so far, i must admit that i enjoyed the books more

Nice : D yea I get that, even thought practical is great it's always nice to make it a little bit more, like you said, artsy. I'm not creative at all so I just take inspiration from many many different spreads 
Hope you manage to reach your goal!!!! 

The movies leave out a lot of important and less important plot that would've made them more true to the books, so I agree with you!! I'm gonna read the books again soon, it's been too long 
Are you gonna watch the hp return to hogwarts on January 1st? :'D

yes, definitely! but as this is my fifth year using a buju, i thought it was about time to challenge myself a bit, ahah. i also really wanna learn calligraphy properly, so what batter way to improve than to practice weekly in my journal? 

exactly. like it's understandable that they have to leave some stuff out, like all movies have to, but i just thought they left out some important details, which was kinda disappointing... also, is it only me or is every room in the wizarding world way too cluttered? all the mess is giving me a headache, my eyes just don't know where to focus, lmao
i'm planning on that, yes, so gotta finish all the films by then!!

Fifth year!!! that's so cool : D weekly writings will definitely help improve : D I find watching pictures with different calligraphy styles to help a lot, just by copying it and then tracing it many times to familiarise yourself with the movements!! where do you get your bujo equipment from btw? : D

yes of course, but many important details that were left out made the context of some things difficult to grasp )): haha I haven't really thought about it but yea I guess they are very cluttered!! I have to watch the movies again and focus on that in particular 8') 
yes hope you manage to finish!!! :'D I can't wait aaaa

yes, that and watching youtube tutorials help a lot!
a bit everywhere tbh, just ordered a bunch of new tombows from penstore.no or something, idk if they're good cause i haven't ordered from there before but at least they had single tombow brush pens to a fair price 

exactly, like i've had to explain some things to my mum as she hasn't read the books and sometimes the films just skip past a lot.. we're on the fifth film already, so we should be good, ahah. and i'm also very excited!!
