bamboo tutorial!

here’s the long-awaited bamboo tutorial!! so sorry it’s taken me this long to get it here; i’ve been really busy with schools w/ finals and ap exams but here it is!!!

step 1:

on the left- take your favorite green colored marker and make little lines with gaps in between them. on the right- draw long, skinny boxes

step 2:

on the left- take the tip of your marker and make little Vs on different parts of the bamboo. you can also make a sprout by drawing a line and then adding the Vs. on the right- draw ovals the same width of your bamboo. these ovals should be pretty small and spaced about the same distance away from each other. make sure to stagger them tho if you have multiple stalks (??) of bamboo so it doesn’t look all the same

step 3:

on the left- take a white gel pen (this is optional) and just add some highlights along some of the bamboo. this gives it some more ~detail.~ on the right- basically do the same exact thing as step two for the left side but with your marker or fineliner. you’re making little leaves that look like Vs. you can also add some sprouts :)

bonus step: (not pictured)

with either one, you can add little leaves floating around the bamboo to look as if some of the leaves are blowing in the wind 

i hope you all liked this tutorial!! if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!!

Today was well erm an extremely shitty day- the day started off well, did some grammar ex and newsletter discussion in eng and went through tys tutorial in bio. I only had 2 classes today so I went to the library to get some work done and guess which dumbass left her mildliners in the library ,ME. Had an extreme mental breakdown coz of that and genuinely didn't feel like doing work ,so watched skz code(ep 16&17) and binge-read the song of Achilles.

Revised wave properties chap in physics while listening to Taylor Swift and did essay plan for my lang essay which I have yet to do( the deadline is on Thursday T-T) and finished off by doing some probability qs. Lmao, I procrastinated A LOT today but, oh well at least got some work done.

Could studyblogging jumpstart your personal grimoire?

A witch should be a lifelong learner. To practice effective magic, you must grow in new directions at a constant pace. A witch should approach magic with a sense of devotion to their own growth.

I’ve practiced magic and divination for two decades now. The most solid advice I can give? Start journaling. Start keeping a notebook. Start studying.

Witches who keep a notebook record their research and ideas about the Craft. This helps them build a wide repository of knowledge, right there when they need it.

The format and content of my notebooks changed a lot over the years. But they all helped me become the witch I am today. I devoted the bulk of these notebooks to my journey in magic, techniques to try, and lessons learned.

There are few people who haven’t studied. In school, we pore over geometry and classic literature in hot pursuit of elusive high marks. We spent time learning about our interests. Whether that’s witchcraft, philosophy, or astronomy, notes are helpful.

Everyone learns in a different fashion. Still, studying and learning about the world remains with us from our first breath, to the last. My Craft took leaps forward when this dawned on me. I’d always enjoyed school. I realized that I could apply the same study techniques to witchcraft and the occult. 

What’s studyblogging?!

As a regular user of both Tumblr and Instagram, I soon came across the studyblogging trend. 

Caitlyn Tiffany of The Verge describes the studyblogging phenomenon as “a beautiful, stressful wonderland.” An apt description! But what is a studyblog? 

Studyblogging hashtags like #studyblr and #studygram  are popular (on Tumblr and Instagram, respectively).  

For someone just coming across the phenomenon, though? It can be difficult to penetrate this strange world. Expect calligraphic chaos, a plethora of highlighters, and fine-tuned aesthetics. 

Studyblogging focuses on the quest for knowledge. In practice, studyblogs share tips and handwritten notes on various subjects. Studybloggers encourage each other to be the best learners they can be. 

The photos of notes, assignments, and other tasks make up the bulk of the phenomenon. Studyblogs often feature photos of elaborate calligraphy and heavy illustration in note form.

Expect to see self-made diagrams of mitochondria. Essay outlines on postcolonial theory with nigh-perfect bubble lettering. Vast, illustrated mind-maps of Shakespearean themes. It's a big community, and there's room for a lot. Room for witches? I think so!

Studyblogging for Witches

In witchcraft, our grimoires function much like a non-magical student's study notes. The content, and some of the form, may differ, but the principles are the same.

The quest for an aesthetically-pleasing grimoire stymies many a beginner (and not-so-beginner) witch. The wise remind us that our grimoires needn’t be complex. Functionality is more important than aesthetics in most cases. 

That said, there is something worthwhile about keeping a grimoire that suits you. A  grimoire can speak to your soul, both by way of aesthetic appeal and your own abilities. For some of us, this might mean a lavishly-illustrated tome. Others might find minimalist styles more resonating. It varies.

The truth is that yes, your grimoire needn’t look a certain way or be perfect. Still, a level of aesthetic appeal can help with information retention. It can also boost your magical productivity. Humans respond in an intuitive fashion to that which they consider beautiful.

Aesthetics can help to put you into a liminal state. Liminality can be a powerful tool in self-improvement. This, in turn, is useful not only for normal studying, but also for the Craft itself. 

If you see art as part of your life path, you might find that approaching your grimoire as a work of art helpful. Part of this means realizing that it won’t be perfect, but also always striving to learn and grow.

Studyblogging, as a community, showcases a lot of excellent notebook and journal-keeping techniques. Studybloggers often provide tutorials and guides to effective learning methods. 

This is, of course, all while celebrating the joy of learning itself. Traditional studying methods can apply to magical topics. I have found that the techniques of the studyblogger can help with keeping a useful grimoire.

Ask your intuition if studyblogging is right for you!

Will studyblogging help you? For some students, lurking or keeping a studyblog inspires and motivates them. It also increases accountability. By posting their goals and progress, studybloggers have an impetus to progress. 

In a way, it’s a bit like livestreaming a video game - it makes the experience more challenging, and also more exciting. The difference, of course, is that, in this case, your game is learning!

And the notes? Many find the calligraphy, fancy scripts, and illustration soothing. It can be a way of making otherwise impenetrable subjects more captivating.

Without a doubt, aesthetic presentation improves information retention for some people. Humans have a positive response to beautiful imagery. 

Some folks find the gorgeous landscape of studygram and studyblr overwhelming and anxiety-inducing. Gorgeous calligraphy notes, after all, aren't easy for most people. 

For some, posting about your studies on a blog might only increase worry. We're all different, and studyblog techniques are hardly universal in form.

You should use your intuition to decide whether to dip into this community. Ask yourself whether an audience will help your quest for deeper knowledge. 

Will you feel empowered, or nervous about it? If you struggle with comparing yourself to others, you might find studyblogging discouraging. 

I myself am somewhat of a perfectionist. For me, though, the artistic aspects of note taking and information illustration soothe me. Studyblogging suits me, but will it help you?

You should tailor your learning experience to your own strengths. If that means studyblogging won’t help you, be honest with yourself and don’t chase the anxiety of it all. Find another method of learning. 

Browse some existing studyblogs - I recommend EmmaStudies and StudyQuill. Ask yourself how it makes you feel. Do the images and writing seems inspirational? 

Would you enjoy sharing your work with the world? Studyblogging might become an ally on your magical path!

Taking the Plunge

So, how do you start a studyblog? How do you get involved in the community?

The most popular studyblogging platforms are Instagram and Tumblr. Instagram lends itself to posting tons of pictures and very short-form posts. Tumblr favors longer prose. 

When I started studyblogging, I created both a studyblr and a studygram. I recommend starting a new account on the site of your preference for studyblogging.  

Follow some existing studybloggers as a way of introducing yourself to the community! Also, follow the hashtags #studyblr and #studygram, to start.

What to study?

Studyblogging features students focused on all kinds of topics. I’ve been studyblogging for over a year. In case you’re wondering, it's rare for someone to complain about my witchy take on studyblogging. 

You’ll find the studyblogging community very welcoming in most cases. But what will you study? I always recommend witches focus on only one or two things they’d most like to learn at a time.

Studyblogging lends itself well to in-depth topical research. This can mean learning the signs and language of astrology or the basics of gemstone magic.

Topics like shadow work or personal Tarot readings might be a bit too personal to blog about. Those might be better suited to normal, private journaling rather than a blog. My own studyblogging tends to focus on my writing preparation, astrology, and Tarot. 

Though I’ve been reading for over twenty years, there is always something new to learn about Tarot. Astrology, like Tarot, is a lifelong discipline. Though I’ve only recently made my first steps into it, there is much to learn. My writing, especially the book I’m working on, has its own notebook.

Possible topics include, but are in no way limited to:

Crystals and gemstones

Astrology

Spellcraft

Mythology and legends

Magical history

Energy work techniques

Seasonal and Lunar cycles

Herbology

Tarot, Lenormand, or oracle deck divination!

It is important to choose topics that interest you in a personal way. At the same time, try not to get distracted. Witchcraft includes many paths of study. Try not to jump from topic to topic - finish what you start!

Supplies

If you’re in school, you may already have a lot of the tools necessary for studying. If not, you can get them for an affordable price in most cases.

Paper matters!  You'll want a notebook or loose leaf binder paper. For hardbound notebooks, you can’t go wrong with a Leuchtturm 1917.  That popular notebook boasts dot grid paper, includes page numbers and a place for an index. 

Seeking something more aesthetic? Check out the Paperblanks series from Peter Pauper Press. You might also like the notebooks you can order from Citrus Bookbindery. For me, a binder (I use A5 size) works best, because I can add and remove pages as necessary. 

You can find some great guides out there about organizing grimoires. Much of that advice applies here. Your notebooks will soon fill the role of a grimoire.  They will contain your notes, research, and more.

It is usually best to have one notebook (or binder) for each subject you’re studying. As you move forward, you’ll have a collection of grimoire notebooks on different topics.

You’ll also need pens or pencils. Really, you only need one. If you feel like getting fancy, you can get multicolored fineliners. I prefer Sakura Micron pens. They use waterproof micropigments that don't bleed when you highlight over your writing.

Highlighters are fun! These add color to your notes and help emphasize the important things. If you want nice highlighters, I recommend Mildliners. Any highlighters will do, though - choose colors that appeal to you. I recommend several different colors, because that allows you to color-code your notes.

Plan!

Plan out, at least in a rough fashion, how you’d like to organize your  notes. This can be rather freeform, or complex, depending on your preference. 

When I began my astrology journey, I knew what sections I would include in my stars grimoire. I also created a rough map of the path I’d take in my research. 

I began with the simple Zodiac signs. I then moved forward through the planets, houses, aspects and transits. My organization, loose though it was, benefited from my use of a binder which allowed me to add and remove pages. 

No matter the notebook, it is important to have, somewhere, a rough idea of where you’re going.

You will also find it important to set attainable, realistic, and measurable goals. For me, this was things like memorizing the astrological house system. I set the goal of reading my astrology textbooks completely and summarizing them. This kind of goal leads to personal accountability.

I also created a set of astrological flashcards for my Tarot-related work. It can be motivational to post your goals on your studyblog in some form. Then, you can provide your followers with regular updates on your progress.

Start posting!

Once you feel ready, go ahead and introduce yourself to the studyblogging community! An introductory post, explaining who you are, your goals, and methods, will help others get to know you. 

I recommend tagging your posts with studyblogging hashtags (mentioned above). Also include some witchcraft-related tags! This will help you connect with other witches who might be helpful on your journey.

Don’t be shy when it comes to posting photographs (taken with a phone or other camera) of your notes! You might not feel that your notes are as neat or pretty as other bloggers. Regardless, they’re unique and might resonate with others!

If you’re taking notes about a very personal topic, like shadow work, you might want to forgo the pictures. Some bloggers obfuscate or blur potentially sensitive parts of their notes. You’ll likely find nothing but encouragement for sharing your research topics, though!

Some studybloggers will also photograph their study space. Some of us even use photos of fun things like their breakfast or pets to illustrate their updates. If pictures don’t suit you, post regular bits about your life and your progress towards your goals. 

Get to know other bloggers! This is important, whether they’re witches or from the studyblogging community. Both can be helpful! 

Watch or read some of the tutorials you’ll find in the studyblogging community. These focus on things like calligraphy, organization, and memory techniques. 

While your notes needn’t have fancy headings, calligraphy can be fun to learn. I don’t currently use calligraphy in my notes, but am learning it on the side, so to speak. 

I find it relaxing, and you might enjoy it too. If not, don't feel bad - not everyone uses fancy handwriting, and that's okay!

Moving Forward

If, after a few weeks, you find yourself really vibing with studyblogging, stick with it! Most witches would agree that there’s no real wrong way to be a witch. To me, though, there are wrong (and right) ways for you yourself to learn and grow in your craft. 

You need to find what works for you, what adheres to your soul and keeps you connected. If studyblogging ends up helping you, and I hope it will, keep going! 

After a while you might find yourself ready to move onto another topic. We all end up “graduating” forward onto other subjects. You’ll quickly find that your grimoires will be an invaluable record. 

They will contain not just your gathered information, but also your intuition, insight, and more. Cherish your notebooks - they will come to reflect your essence!

Having fruit by your desk while you study is such a good idea! I always get bored and wanna snack on the nearest thing so it might as well be fruit!

A few issues I have with aesthetic studytubers:

1. Why are all of them in STEM disciplines? There’s nothing wrong with STEM disciplines, like we need nurses and astrophysicists, but why are all these aesthetically driven people in STEM disciplines? Like, would it hurt at least one of them to be in the humanities or education? Is there a link between aesthetic students and STEM disciplines? Like they don’t have the individual creativity to create organically, but they have some instinct to be creative so they funnel it into their notes?

2. Why does everyone use the same aesthetics? You know the one: pastel mildliners, the exact brush lettering calligraphy. Or the pastel block letters with the black cursive writing in the foreground. Now, I’m not very artistic, and my handwriting can be accurately described as chickenscratch, but wouldn’t you want your work to be uniquely yours?

3. “Pretty notes.” I don’t want to learn how to take pretty notes, I want to learn how to take notes fullstop. I don’t have the energy to take regular notes that aren’t me just copying the lecturers notes in full, I don’t care to make them pretty. You watch these videos - this where the problem with me being a humanities student whilst all of them are STEM students really comes out - and it’s a tutorial on how to take the exact same ‘pretty’ physics, psychology & calculus notes, not history or literature. I’m not going to need to label out a diagram of the cerebral...thing... I need to know how to summarise the jist of a historian’s argument. Or fucking graph paper. I haven’t needed graph paper since I was in TAFE. Bush was still in office the last time I used graph paper. “Oh, get this really cute mechanical pencil because it’s great for writing equations” I don’t need to write equations, I need a mechanical pencil that isn’t going to cause a blister on my right ring finger when I spend a good chunk of a week summarising the philosophical rambles of Immanuel Fucking Kant.

Also, fuck Peter L. Berger and his theory of the ‘Sacred Canopy.’ Fucking the heretic imperative.

Maybe that’s why it’s all pastel mildliners and brush lettering for these people. They will never know the pain of modernity and Berger’s sacred canopy...

Hi! I’m Oswie and because I’ve reached 200 followers (thanks, guys!) I’m going to write a tutorial on how I take my photos. I’ll be using this app call VSCO, you can find it here for Android and iOS.

First of all we need to take a photo of your notes! I’ll be using this photo of my last Spanish History notes. If you can, use natural light, but you can be like me and use your reading lamp lol

Load your photo in the app (you can use it to take the photo as well) and select it. Press edit!

Now it’s time to do the magic. First of all I like to use the filter HB1 for all my photos, so let’s select it.

Now, we’re going to edit the photo. Let’s increase a bit the exposure and the contrast.

I like to sharp the pic too and then increase the shadows save

Finally, if you want, you can decolor the picture too

And that’s all! Here you have the before and the after!

I hope this was useful! Thanks again for 200 followers and study hard! Follow me in my studygram for more photos!

Materials You’ll Need

A Notebook

A Writing Utensil

That’s it. That is, ultimately, all you will need for this. However, I am a stationary nerd, so I’m also going to show you some cheap stuff you can buy to make a pretty Book of Shadows. I personally went to Michael’s for some of these items.

List of all these items:

Artist’s Loft Dotted Paper Journal | $9.99 | Buy here

Artist’s Loft Silver Permanent Marker | $1.49 | Buy here

Sakura Gelly Roll 08 White Pen | $1.99 | Buy the 05 size here

G2 Pilot Metallic Ink Pens | $8.99 | Buy here

Remember, you do not need any of these materials to make a Book of Shadows. To me, they just make it more fun! I also have some supplies I have purchased earlier this year for other purposes, but will be using them in this tutorial. Here is a list of those and their retail prices on Amazon.

Zebra Mildliners 15 ct | $16.77 | Buy here

Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens 4 ct | $14.99 | Buy here

Staedler Pigment Liners 4 ct | $24.12 for 2 pack | Buy here

Step 1: Decide on the Cover

For me, this was the hardest step. I had to decide what I wanted the cover to look like! Originally I drew a sigil with my silver marker, but decided against it. It left an imprint on the cover, but I think it still looks good. I then drew a Waning Crescent Moon on the cover, since the Moon means a lot to me, and because I work with the Norse God of the Moon, Mani. I also drew the moon phases on the spine, and wrote the runes Othala and Kenaz twice. This is because Othala means something similar to Home, and Kenaz is the rune for Loki, one of the Gods I work with. 

Now for your cover, you absolutely do not have to put anything! Or you could put everything! One option I considered was purchasing some label stickers so I could place one on the cover and title it “Book of Shadows,” but did not like any of the choices I had. Below are some decorating ideas!

Draw a sigil

Draw a Pentagram or Pentacle

Write a charm for protection

Title it, plain and simple

Decorate with stickers!

Doodle witchy things

etc etc!

Step 2: Check Out Your Journal’s Features

Above, you can see the index / table of contents as well as the Bullet Journal key, as this was made more for Bullet Journals. There is 1 front and back page for the index, and the front of another page, with the key on the back. Should you not have an index in your Book of Shadows, I highly recommend making one using two front and back pages. You can find some great videos on youtube that go over how to make them for Bullet Journals. Find one that suits you!

Here you can see the page numbers and the average page style! As it is a dotted journal, this will be very useful for both drawing and writing in straight lines. And because it’s already numbered, we don’t have to worry about writing them in.

And the last part is this pocket folder for carrying scraps of papers! There are also 3 test pages for pens, just like there was 3 pages for the index, but I forgot to take photos of them. These are to see how your pens will work before you use them seriously in your journal, to make sure they don’t bleed or smudge.

Step 3: The Reference Section

I decided for my Book of Shadows I wanted to make a Reference Section. This is, essentially, the part of the book that will hold anything I will refer back to frequently while working on my craft and my practice, such as Holidays, Moon Phases, Correspondences, etc. You technically don’t need to do this, but it is incredibly helpful to know which section is which, and what it will contain. Below is a step-by-step photo process of how I created my title page for this section, as well as a reference I added to remember how to split up my pages easily.

And that’s it for setting up! Thank you for joining me in this part, I hope it was useful to you, and I hope that you’ll continue to enjoy this series!

hi emma! i’m the lazy bujo anon. i’ve decided i’m going to start bullet journaling in 2019! do you have any recommendations for stationery for someone who’s just starting calligraphy and bullet journaling? thank you so much! ♡

Hello again!! Ooo, good luck with everything! When I was bullet journaling, I used the Pilot G2 in 0.38 and Zebra mildliners. Sometimes I’d use the Muji Gel Pens for some colour but not too much! I haven’t really done any calligraphy so don’t have personally preferences - I couldn’t justify money on fancy pens when I don’t really think I’d put the time in to learn :’-) However, a lot of people recommend Crayola Super Tips, Tombow Brush Pens, or Pentel Brush Pens. I have this ‘Lettering and Calligraphy’ Pinterest Board which has lots of tutorials, advice posts, and printables in there which can help! xx

90 Days of Productivity: Day oops/90

Day... 53, I think.

Well, some weeks you kind of just fall off the bandwagon and that’s okay. Here’s a reintroduction in the form of a minor-to-moderate explosion in a mildliner factory, aka my record of which topics have come up in which papers. I’ve kept a couple blank as papers I’d like to try as unseen mock exams - the ones with the stars indicate how many actually have answers, or will be covered in a tutorial. 

Exams are really starting to loom now, but with only one more problem sheet to go I’m feeling okay about starting phase 1 of revision over the next week or so!

Today was really nice and productive - I had two lectures, went for a run, did all my laundry and filled in some forms I’d been putting off, as well as going through all those past papers and starting revision plans for the next two weeks. Let’s go!

All about my bujo!

Told ya’ll I’d be back! >:)

I’ve been currently using the leuchtturm 1917 A6 hardcover squared notebook in the color anthracite! It is very small and I am able to just throw it in any bag and take it on the go! I have also added my favorite spread at the moment as well as a recipe page for some overnight oats! :p (very yummy btw)

A few people have sent me messages asking me to share a few of my favorite things so I decided to take pictures of them as well! Most of my washi tape and stickers are bought from ali-express! They take a while to get sent to my house but I believe it’s worth it. If you don’t mind waiting of course! 🤗 The pancakes are my favorite stickers at the moment and obviously I am obsessing over the no-face washi! 

LAST BUT NOT LEAST, would it even be a bullet journal post without mildliner’s?! I understand why people are so obsessed with them because I have been loving them ever since I bought them. I have to say the grey color has to be my favorite one! 

If any of you would like links to where these specific items are from, as well as the recipe for the oats in greater detail if you can’t see the recipe as well from here or a tutorial, let me know! I would be more than happy to do that! I will also be sharing my current spread for the month of April as well as some new stickers that should be arriving next week! Stay tuned love bugs! xx

Q&A Part I

1. What’s your go to pen? 

Either a **Muji 0.5 Gel **or the PaperMate RT300 Inkjoy

The Muji is mainly for note condensing / fancy work and everyday use, and then the PaperMate is for journalling and exams.

2. Do you like using colour in your notes or black and white? 

For lecture notes, I type and it’s a mix of colours; black for general notes and text, red for cases and judgements and blue for legislation and statutes.

For condensed handwritten notes it’s all done in black and then I’ll highlight with **Mildliners. **I find that switching between different coloured pens wastes way too much time.

3. Studying with friends or alone? 

Both. I love both, to be honest. The majority of the time I spend working alone, but once or twice a week I meet with close friends to go over stuff we didn’t understand and collaboratively do our tutorial prep.

4. What do you do as a study break? 

Usually just browse twitter/tumblr, grab a snack, watch a short youtube. Though sometimes, if I’m feeling a little more creative I’ll read or write a few pages of a novel.

5. Favourite area of your school/college to work? 

None. I don’t like working on my campus - I much prefer to either work in my flat or go to starbucks / a cafe. But the flat is the best because I have as much space as I want, I can talk out loud, I can eat, I have snacks and (most importantly) I can use the loo without having to pack all my stuff away.

introduction

hi guys! so junior college in singapore is kinda like high school. we enter junior college for 2 years (unless you retain) then we take a major exam called the A level examinations. there’s some things that you should do in class, at home and also how to manage stress etc. my subject combination is HELm so if it doesn’t apply to ur combination then, sorry.

what you need

• notebooks/loose leaf for each subject notes

• binders for the loose leaf

• an everything notebook all lecture/tutorial notes go here and when you go home, review the notes and add it to your subj notebook/binders

• a bujo/planner to write down all assignments, homework and tests

• mildliners they add colour to your notes, if you prefer other markers/highlighters those are fine too

in school

1. lectures

• copy down lecture slides you’ll have less of a tendency to fall asleep or to talk to your friends because you’d want to capture everything

2. tutorials

• do all your tutorial homework because it’ll allow you to practise the content you learnt in lectures

• write down any important things your teacher says in an everything notebook so you can go home and review it

at home

• do all homework once you get it, or it really piles up and creates stress

• sleep enough

• don’t watch tv excessively (netflix, youtube, etc.)

• spend time with family because at the end of the day, that’s what rlly matters

reminders

• try to go for at least one/two social events a week

• join a cca that you actually enjoy or life in jc slowly becomes meaningless

• drink enough water because it affects you more than you actually realise
