Journaling Café: Journal Pages

It’s journaling hour here in my little Digiscrap Corner, but today, I got something special for you. Something a little out of the ordinary. But don’t worry (for those journalers among you), you’ll still get a ton of inspiration out of what I’m going to share with you. Have you ever heard of “Grace is Overrated”? It’s a website by some awesome gal who came up with an amazing idea of creating journaling pages. Something like this:  You can easily find her pages on her website (for download and print, in colored/embellished versions, or simple and plain). And what’s best of all, you can use her pages as inspiration for your websites. I for one, took inspiration from the prompts in the middle section of the page above, the section called “Moving ever forward.” And see what I did with it on one of my scrapbook pages … Anyhow, if you’ve never heard of Overrated Grace, then could be time for you to discover some gems!

Deserted Campus

Many of my colleagues dread the winter break, because it seems that this town turns into a ghost town, especially right around Spring Festival. As soon as they can, they flee this campus and our town, touring through Asia, and trying to get as far away from here as they can. I actually don’t mind a deserted campus, because it seems to me that this is the only time of the year, when this place isn’t actually overcrowded. You see, our school is growing in terms of people, but hardly growing in terms of space, which means that every year, the campus gets more populated and quiet corners more rare. Except for the winter break. Now quiet corners are everywhere, and to me that’s a rather pleasant sight!
