omgz, a theme a day journal with secretterrabite!

For this swap, you'll need a journal. Any type will do, as long as it's not super small. Let's say anything above 6 x 8. You may also make your own journals, if you would like.

There will be 31 themes for this swap. You don't have to do them in any order. However, try to only do one a day. Please date your entries. You do not have to do them back to back. Also, You can add more themes if you'd like.

This journal can be hand written or typed and made into a journal. There will be pages that require you to make things (though you dont need amazing artistic or crafting abilities!).

I will give you a month and a half to do the swap, this way, you don't have to write every day. You can start right away, as this is not profile specific.

If you have any questions, please email me.

The Themes:

a. Please write a short into about you and your life. This will let your partner get to know you a little better. You can include photos of you and your life on the CD.

b. Daydream and doodle on an entire page of the journal. Don't worry about making it pretty.. Just doodle anything! Use up the entire page.
