so along with my hipster PDA, i’ve been a big fan of Moleskine notebooks over the years.

i’ve used all sorts of sizes and styles.

however, the smaller hardbacks like this always seem to capture my imagination.  i’ve got 8 previous ones filled up with notes, stories, rants, poetry, etc over the last 5 or so years.  not too shabby considering they are about 200 pages.

i really got into the Moleskines while teaching 8th grade.  there was something cathartic to writing in them.

i’m back to using them heavily now.  missed them.  don’t know why i ever stopped using them, really… but it’s always great to look back months and years ago and see what was going through my head and heart.
