Now everyone is looking at his kids. Cass and Tim are tiny at 5’ 5 and 5' 7. Damian is still a kid and he's also small. Dick is bigger, but picking him up wouldn't require that much muscle. Maybe Duke, who is still growing but looks like he could be about Bruce's height when he's fully grown? Maybe him?

track the weather for a month/season/year/whatever. you could do this in the same grid style as a classic mood tracker

write a challenge for yourself

page where you add a doodle everyday

cut up some old sheet music and glue it in

go on a walk, press a bunch of herbs, glue them in. write what you saw around you while collecting each one

a "recipe for me" as if you're a baked good (3 cups confidence, dash of anxiety, etc)

give each close friend a page to fill however they choose

watercolour pallet for different moods

"outfit of the day"; sketch the fit and talk about how it makes you feel

write a playlist for your life right now

brainstorm a list of easy new things to do

Journal Ideas: “About My Life” Pages

“Get to know me” Page

We are constantly changing! This goes for our values, our personalities, our interests… who are you in this current moment?

Take a picture! This is a great memory to have of what you looked like at this time!

What are your favorite songs, bands, artists, books, shows, movies, etc.

List your favorite things about yourself. Talents, skills, character, style, accomplishments, etc.

List what you struggle with the most. (How do you plan on overcoming it?)

Take all sorts of personality quizzes and record your results (16 personalities quiz, alignment test)

Questions: What are your current interests? Have you been really into gardening? Ocean life? Knitting? Space? Ramble about it! What are your current values? Ideals?

“My Bedroom” Page

For many of us, this is room that we spend most of our time in. It’s also a place that will undergo many changes throughout the year. Record what it looks at the moment!

Take a picture! Or make a drawing!

List your favorite items, the most important items, the items with the most sentimental value…

Questions: What does the decor say about you? What does the room itself say about you? Is it messy? Neat? Do you share it with someone?

“My Favorite Place(s)” Page

Sometimes, being in one place often can make us feel caged, or make us feel uninspired. Where do you go to think? To find motivation? To de-stress/recharge?

Include pictures or sketches

Souvenirs! If it’s in nature press some leaves or flowers. If it’s a commercial place, save a receipt! If it’s a library… don’t commit theft 😅 (maybe a bookmark or brochure?)

Describe it using your five senses: sight, touch, sound, smell… taste?

Questions: How often do you visit, do you wish to visit more often? When do you find yourself seeking this place ? How did you come about it? How do you feel when you’re here?

I tried to make these mostly positive, but life isn't always positive.

Once they've seen you do full-force into self-destruct, they always look at you with a sense of wariness and like you're not the person they thought you were

if you say your attraction to this person is strictly aesthetic - then that's all you need. you do not need to fit any sort of criteria. you don't even need to label it at all.

your feelings cannot be proved wrong- the only person who can decide what you're feeling is you, even if the attraction you feel doesn't fit the definition of whatever word you choose.

if your relationship involves much physical touch, what would you call it? a sexual relationship? romantic? sensual? that's fully up to you- you can call it any word you like, regardless of what happens in the relationship.

this goes for others relationships too. if someone calls their relationship nonsexual or nonromantic, then you don't get to decide whether or not that's 'correct', regardless of what happens in the relationship.

⬇️what I understand

I have gone through tons of different study methods throughout my 17 years of lifetime here are some that worked best for me and for many people i know-

THE FEYMAN TECHNIQUE Why this technique? This helps to understand a topic in great depth and helps one to know where they are lacking. How to- 1. Choose a topic which you want to learn. 2. Pretend to teach it to a beginner which helps you to breakdown complex material to easy steps. 3. Pay attention to areas where you struggle to explain. Go back to your study material to review and fill in the information. 4. Repeat it until you can explain the topic with ease.

BLURTING METHOD Why this technique? A revision technique used for active recall to improve memory. How to- 1. Study the notes of the particular chapter/topic 2. Make a list of active recall questions while studying 3. Take a blank paper and write everything you know about the topic without looking at your notes 4. Check your notes to see if you missed anything.

MIND MAPPING Why this technique? Helps to visualise a topic which leads to better understanding . How to- 1. Start with a topic in the centre of page 2. Branch out with major titles 3. Creat a sub branch for each major title 4. Keep doing this to expand your mind map.

Remember it’s not about quantity it’s about quality.

Don’t try mugging, it is the worst way to ever study.
