I really enjoy nature and a nice stroll through the woods. Where I live we have a lot of spruce rather than birches but at my grandparents house there is a big forest with birches and bushes. I was a kid who loved to play in the woods and spent a lot of time outside. My grandparents forest amazed me because of all the light coming through the treetops.

The birches themselves seemed a bit dark and depressing because of the lack of color, so I decided to put in some color, by adding some leaves that are orange that have not yet fallen from the trees.

So I think I don't really have to explain why I chose this design for October. I love Pumpkins, I love candy and I love cute ghost doodles, so this was a no brainer.

As I said in my last post: I don't have enough orange and brown tones so October just comes in the classic bright orange which is actually not so bad. Still, maybe I'm getting some new colors after Christmas.

Anyway I decided to draw about something I think everyone pictures thinking about Fall. I did some branches with leaves on them, but not in a very conventional color.

It just started out with me drawing the branches when I realised that I have no brown and orange tones that really fitted my idea. Then I decided to take some colors I really like and just make the best of it.

To be honest I never really managed to keep plants alive.... It's sad but true. I still need to learn how to properly water them and stuff but it's getting better and I just love how much plants can affect the look of a room.

Somehow, those colors gives me the feeling of cooling me down a little. I know it doesn't make sense but that's just how I feel :D

Thanks for nominating me 🥰 so I guess some things were already very obvious but who cares lol.

1. I'm german, so my mother tongue isn't english. (Pls have mercy on meee ... I make mistakes very often and I sometimes do not realize it at all)

That's also why some of my bullet journal entries are german (oh wonder)

2. I just recently started to write my very own fiction. (Can we get a applaaaaaus it only took me 3 years yeeeaaah) I also write it in English over there, even though; my mind is telling me noooo, but my body, my bloody ist telling me yeeeeEEeeeEeEs.

If you want to check it out go to @sukihimura (I'm disgusting using this for self promo, yet here we are ✨)

3. In my free time I really love singing and I spend most of the time looking up lyrics of all kind of songs and having my own f***ng concerts while cooking, taking a shower, drawing, whatever you can imagine.

My neighbors probably do not appreciate. But I don't care. They have annoying children.

I like the combination of green and red, which always gives me a summer vibe. These two colors just go so well together. I also loved how the rest of June turned out.

Watermelons are one of the best things summer has to offer and the taste just reminds me of a nice hot day outside and swimming in a lake. It's just refreshing!

I'm still not a 100% sure if I consider this cover done or not but this is a problem I can fix later. ☺️ rn I am focusing on getting my bujo done, so I can already start using it in November when I start university.

Ok so listen up I have exactly in mind what's gonna happen:

13- Sai, because my boy slim af. I can imagine him avoiding getting thing from a vending machine at all .... so,... (And his slim hands would probably get it out, ngl)

12- Sasuke, sweets? Yes. Embarrass yourself because you wanna eat 'em? No, forget it.

11- Shikamaru, probably because he wouldn't care it's annoying to type in the number in the first place. That's a problem he's not gonna be confronted with. Not coming near that thing.

10- Neji, he would go for a snack but ugh, if it gets stuck it gets stuck .... It's DESTINY. Not trying to do something about it.

9- Tenten, frick this machine! Prepare for Tenten to slice it open or turning it into dust. She is not using her hands to deal with this problem. She has her jutsu, very helpful.

8- Sakura, this lady is brutal and we know it the vending machine is not going to survive her anger. Probably like above (hehe) she's going to end up turning it into dust. Snacks flying around (Choji, Kiba and Naruto appreciate)

7- Shino, My boy does not like sweets as much. But if he gets something and it gets stuck ... no problem at all get some bugs and it's out. Very helpful. But without the bugs I think he could be clumsy and have some problems getting his snack out of the machine.

6- Ino, so basically it's the same as with Sai. She probably would get something from a vending machine, but would be to embarrassed to do something about something getting stuck. She knows she would not get it out of there. But if she is angry... Oh boy be prepared seeing her shoulders deep in the vending machine having a FIGHT with it.

5- Hinata, we know she's into sweets. Ramen eating queen and snack destroyer. If she throws her money in there, the machine is going to give her snacks¿? She would be very secret about it and act normal if someone passes by, but she is desperate getting it out of there. (If someone sees her she is RED, and I mean TOMATO KINDA RED, don't disturb her!!)

4- Lee, he wants his protein bar. Like come on he's has another training session with Gai in 10 minutes. He's going to take it as a challenge, but in the end if he gets stuck, (what he most likely will) it's gonna be with his leg.

3- Choji, my chonky man. He loves this machine providing snacks everytime he passes by. They have an emotional bonding ngl. So, if his snack gets stuck he is gonna comfort the machine and is going to politely ask if it's ok if he tries getting it out. (#HandsToBig) Poor guy ist going to get stuck. He's not gonna be mad about it. Nice guy 10/10.

Now... listen to me ... It's difficult to choose a number 1, that's why Naruto and Kiba share the 1st place. In the end, they both going to end up stuck.

1- Naruto, Ramen eating King and snack vacuum. He is straight up dumb about solving this problem. He is going to end up with half of his body in the vending machine crying for help. He is not going to get it without help.

1- Kiba, listen to me: Dog man hungry, dog man food. So Kiba is desperate about getting his snack. In the end he is gonna end up with his head in the machine trying to catch his food that he's pushing with his hand. So same as with Naruto.

(They are probably end up in the machine completely, waiting for the next person to free them(

This design was quite spontaneous. I just felt like drawing it without any planning or sketching in advance.

It's really not my favorite design but it reminds me a lot of summer slowly approaching. We have a lot of lavender in our garden and I just love the smell.

Here are some examples for the weekly overviews I did so far.

I'm not just following one particular design but try out different ones. Not only is it fun to discover new ways to design a page but it also keeps me motivated to work on my journal.

I'm very excited to work with some new stuff I bought. Soon I'm starting university so it comes in handy to have some new stuff to organize my notes.

One of my absolute favorite designs.

I love cherry blossoms and for me it's a symbol of spring and beauty. I also designed the whole month to be in this pink blossom style. It's always a lot of fun drawing these branches because you can just randomly doodle 'em and they turn out beautiful.

Next up is March. (In English this time... Don't ask why)

I am not really sure what I did with february tho.

It's defenitely not my favorite cover but I still like the purple theme. Especially how the weekly overview turned out.

My January cover.

Since I am a capricorn (I don't really believe in star signs but i love the asthetic of it) I chose this kind of star themed look. I always try to have a good composition of colors to give a page a certain tone.

This is the first look inside my journal.

I chose a simple design for my calendar this year. The little doodles represent the covers i did for every month.
