I have just added another bon mot to the commonplace section of my notebook.

This weeks Macro Monday theme is "Back to school". When I was a kid, I always enjoyed going back to school every September. There were some years that the first day of school landed on the same day as my birthday (Sept. 5th) which wasn't always so nice lol.
One of my favourite new school supplies was getting packs of lined paper. I always started the new school year off with writing neatly on fresh pages of crisp white paper but by the end of the school year my writing always got sloppier. Haha! But I always had good intentions every start of the school year to put forward my best effort and to do really well...starting with good writing and note taking skills. :D
HMM everyone!
Slow weekend. Finally took the time to re-arrange my Traveler's Notebook. I charged the GR and got it ready for some action. After the frenzy of the first months and the (failed) attempt on my 365 GR project I stopped using it. Time to go back to it. I feel it's the right time.
A selection of the notebooks I have kept. Front and center is the one that rides around in my purse to collect thoughts and ideas, but there are personal journals, class notebooks, a work notebook, a home-maintenance log and an old Wiktionary notebook in here, too.

By the way, I didn't do this little drawing in the corner of the page. The notebook came this way!
Fungus Workshop Leather Craft
I learned leather craft from a few books but I felt kind of lonely just doing things I like all by myself. Thanks to Bubi Au Yeung, a figurine artist, who told me about Fungus Workshop, so I signed up for a beginner's class, two lessons passed and I got to know stuffs I didn't learn from books, plus knowing these passionate people who enjoy life and craft genuinely, which is kind of rare in a city like Hong Kong.
Each classmate choose what he/she would like to do from a bunch of samples. I chose to do something in the line of stationery (later I will do a camera/laptop messenger bag). Their template was a notebook cover, but I decided to make it a GTD index card holder. After finishing it, I decided to add a notebook for note taking and an antique key to nostalgize the whole thing.
For all leather projects I did, improvisation in the last minute seems to add beautiful touches to a plain project. As you can see, the enclosure here doesn't wrap the back of the cover to the front, instead it leaves the back wide open so I can dangle the whole notebook or even hook it up to my messenger bag.
Instead of a Moleskine notebook, I put a Rhodia notebook inside just because of its bright orange color, to lighten up a bit. However, I hate the fact that the PU cover of Rhodia discolored after just 6 months from my acquisition of it. In addition, it just doesn't lie flat like a Moleskine does when opened. Anyhow, the discoloration did added the raw and battered look I like.
For those of you who are in Hong Kong and hunger for leather craft, I highly recommend Fungus Workshop. Hoiming and Baldwin, Grace and Philip, all four are friendly souls you can chat with and learn from. I am so happy Hong Kong is catching up with Japan and Taiwan in leather crafting. Keep it up Fungus!

Hacking GTD Tabs And Index Cards Into Traveler's Notebook
The 5th anniversary edition Traveler's Notebook is way too attractive not to get. But how am I gonna carry everything in it including my GTD index cards which I normally put into my mind.Depositor? Well first, if you don't know how to put 4 notebooks into the leather cover, check out this previous post.
To put the 4 stacks of GTD index cards (next actions, project, waiting for and someday) into the notebook, first you use 2 pieces of thick paper cut to the size of the notebook refill cover, then insert them to one of the elastic bands just like you normally would do with a notebook refill. This will give you 4 pages/placeholders for the index cards. You can make the index cards more accessible by reducing the width of each page, the first page being the narrowest and so forth.
The rest is just easy, using binder clips to clip each stack of index cards onto the corresponding pages. If you are like me looking for more stylish way to use the clips, check out my previous post about how to make these Leather GTD Tabs.
Perhaps you've noticed an extra notebook on top of my Traveler's Notebook in the first image. It is a Moleskine weekly diary I need constant access to, I customized to make it likable together with Traveler's Notebook. Next year however, I don't need to do that anymore coz Midori is going to release a weekly refill in the format I like most - weekly diary on the left page, note space on the right! Can't wait for the 2012 weekly diary coming out, which will be around September 2011.

As one of my first mesh creations, the LI on these is fairly high, not really recommended for keeping out permanently.
These are couple of my favorite things in my room, part of my travel souvenirs, among other things.
