2nd journal from the left and straight on till morning

So I finished my first journal!

And immediately went out and bought three new ones to fill, because who wouldn't amirite?

It was pretty exciting to finished my first journal, I was kinda worried that I would loose interest and definitely didnt think it would be finished by summer, so its kinda cool to think I'm almost halfway through my second one.

This journal is a little more scrappy and personal but not in a secret way, I wouldn't actually be annoyed if someone looked through it, in retrospect the first one was a little bit try-hard. I've taken it with me more, just when I'm out and about to fill in with thoughts, or really short stories or drawing practice. I've also been having a bit more fun with it, there are some jokey pages and I really like to go back to old drawings and add colour and other decoration to them for the hell of it.

A letter to July, the month, and a sketch from Rookie

I did the page on the right first and filled in
the blank page with directions I needed to
remember while in London

Colour chart of my new crayons and
musings on London with a sketch of my
hotel window

Titled ~ Things I Saw In Rokit Vintage
That Made Me Want To Have More Money
To Buy Them

Basically drawings of pretty stuff I
wanted to get at Rokit

Fun Rookie stuff

Fashion design and the list of people
I wanted to see at Edinbrugh Fringe

Sassy little V&A page and drawings of
my butt in my new dungarees

A collage that shows my love for the
adorkable Matthew Beard and an ode
to Matthew Hitt.
I love a good Matthew

Stupid little drawings and a page on
glitter and origami foxes

Marker drawing of me and a short story
about someone who doesn't like school but
doesn't know why.

On the right, my feelings on catwalk
shows and a not very good drawing
of me listening to a song by Brothers

I'm really stoked to keep going with my journals, it was super fun to get back into them today, I wanna keep going for a long time, see how many journals I will have finished in a years time, or by the end of art foundation.
