Can I just first establish that I'm super excited for August! I'm allowing myself essentially a month of "vacation" which I haven't had since I was, well... under 13 years old thats for sure! Not a full month to be completely honest, since I do have to start my new job late August etc., but regardless. Anyways, I made an attempt at Bullet Journaling earlier this year, but needless to say that due to the beginning of 2017 being extremely busy, I failed. I used a somewhat watered down version of bullet journalling all of July to mark my work hours down and to try and get the hang of it. So here is my setup for August (inspiration credits will be linked somewhere) alongside a little explanation at what this month will include! I'm just a rookie and I'm hoping I'll get better and better at this as the year comes to an end. It's all a matter of the hours you put in, as it is with all skills.

Prepping for Amsterdam!

I will be sharing more tips and stuff I've noticed next month and will hopefully upload the monthly setup earlier than I did this month as well.

I will be travelling back to the UK in the beginning of the month, this time through London with my parents. According to the original plan they were going to escort me all the way back to Dundee, but we agreed that there was no point in them paying extra for a six hour train-ride I could easily take by myself. So, we will adventure London together for a few days and I will travel to Dundee by myself. I can't be the only one who loves taking the train?

After that, I will be going to Amsterdam with a friend of mine for a few days. Super excited for that one. I've never been to Amsterdam before, yet I can already tell I will most definitely fall in love with the city. I will update you on that after the actual trip itself alongside some photos. As you can tell I will be using the Bullet Journal to plan the trip to get the most out of the days we will be staying there.

After Amsterdam I will start my new job essentially, hopefully continue volunteering, and get ready to start the new semester. Apologies that my posts have been a little dry lately, I will try to incorporate a little more thought into the next few! Meanwhile, you should totally subscribe to me via email ;)
