The Creative Journals and Planners PH Mini-meet and my First Pop-up Booth

-
Last March 24 was the first Creative Journals and Planners PH (CPJPH) meet up. It was held in Bo's Coffee, Eastwood City.

As a small shop starting out, I wanted to try doing a pop-up booth in a small event so I sponsored lootbag content and snagged me a selling spot for the event.

I wasn't able to take a photo of my setup but I did learn a lot from this experience on how I can make my setup better.

What I did though was make sure I had varying height  displays to make it more appealing, I also had a tall-ish chalkboard sign.


It was a big help that I was in the table where the watercolor workshop was done! I was able to absorb what was being discussed and got to try doing some leaves using that magical triangle brush! You can see my chalkboard display too! Lol!

Being in the central table is super fun! Aside from getting to participate in the workshop, I chatted up a lot of people! It's a big win for me because I can't move around so much with my big, pregnant belly, and I do love socializing when I'm out of the house :)


The CPJPH was super duper fun! I went to my sister's condo at around 530 pm (the event finished at 5pm), and just went back at around 7pm to meet my friends for dinner, half of the attendees were still there planning, stamping, basically just continuing the meet up, like it didn't end a few hours ago! Lol!

I got home at around 11pm, and I was so tired and happy! I even got to take home freebies from planner friends.

Here's a video with these items up-close!




Meeting with friends in a planner meet is always fun! You get to catch up with each other and swap stuff with each other :)

An attempt for Bathroom Sessions

Okay, I haven't thought of a nice title for my guitar sessions and this first 1 isn't at the bathroom, it's in my lil bro's room. This is just an attempt so it's not a full song or anything. Overjoyed as popularized by Stevie Wonder Chords: Intro: C B7 Bb7M B7 C B7 Bb7M A Stanza: D Bm Em - A Overtime, I've been building my castle of love D Bm E - F# Just for two, though you never knew you were the reason B F# I've gone much too far for you now to say Bm E A That I've got to throw my castle away D Bm Em - A Over dreams, I have

Teacher! Teacher!

I've been a teacher for 2 weeks and 2 days now. I can say that being a teacher is equally hard and satisfying. My experience is not as tough as most teachers though. For starters, I only have 9 students, sometimes 3. I don't need to bring test papers home just so I could return them on time. I don't need to make a lesson plan. HAHAHAHAHA *insert triumphant laugh here* One of the joys of being a teacher is seeing that your students are able to understand what you are saying. It's like saying "Oh Yeah! I can teach! I can teach!" IT FEELS GOOD. DAMN GOOD :) Now I know why smart students are teachers' favorites. These smart students give the teacher a sense of accomplishment. They get the lesson. They are able to do it by themselves! YESSSS! It's kinda scary though, being a teacher. I mean, yeah I teach them everything I know and have learned but a person retains only a certain percentage of knowledge from school. So that fraction of knowledge that I learn

Free Printable: Customizable A5 Vertical Week on 2 Pages for Happy Planner or Ring Binder

I'm the type of person where pre-made planners do not work. I need my space to be fluid enough to cater to my needs, and that varies by so much. I think the reason is because I use my planners for everything, and the content varies per day; so naturally, my to do list, notes and journal entries won't fit the regular pages of a planner. I started my online business this March and I find myself needing a dedicated planner for my business. It doesn't take too much space in my bullet journal, mostly just to do items and ideas to note of, but I think I'd rather that these things be in a separate planner where I can detail and schedule them properly. Since I'm new to this business thing, I need more structure in my planning. I don't want to devote the extra time of making my weekly layouts by hand so I figured I'd need a regular planner.  I know it's easier (and probably cheaper) to just buy a planner from the bookstore since most of them are on sale n
