midori traveler's notebook

Last week, I had a chance to go to Hong Kong. It was for academic conference, but I managed to visit Log-On, a famous lifestyle and stationery store. I went crazy when I saw various Midori Traveler's Note items. I bought the Traveler's Notebook set. I get the black leather cover (passport size) because I'm very comfortable with this size. It's just a slightly smaller than A6, about the same with pocket moleskine. For me, the regular size of Traveler's Notebook is kinda strange. Anyway.. I also bought a plastic pocket, a the grid notebook refill, a set of rubber bands, a charm (Braniff logo) and some sticky notes. The passport size notebook cover cost me HK$ 300 (about Rp. 550K) and the refill note etc cost around HK$ 25 - 80 (around Rp. 50K - 150K). By the way, I also got my notebook personalized with my name embossed on the front cover. Nice.

hello july

Well,
I'm preparing myself to be a student (again). This time for higher degree. I hope everything will be okay. Anyway, it's now quite near-end of ramadan (fasting month), and I kinda need a mood booster.

So I just overspent on Pan Am series of Midori Traveler's Notebook. I know I'm late. Waay too late. I used to have a kinda defense mechanism that I won't need it at all. It's not my thing. It's not THAT cool. But apparently, after months and months away, I couldn't get it out of my mind. I went crazy to get almost all of the complete collection. The blue leather cover, the notebook refill, the stickers, and the pen.

Yes, I had to get it. So it's done. And I have no money left. How will I survive for this month? I don't know. I'm scared.

Well,
Let's see how will I be able to manage this blog again.
