Buy a Moleskine notebook

That i will get one for this summer. Im going to be traveling ALOT and i really want to be able to remember everything. Sometimes words dont do an experience justice, so ill bring my camera as well.
I want to remember these things for the rest of my life!

And finally, here it is! :D~

I like it. I have already filled 2 and a half pages.

Does it make sense to pay 12 dollars for something that I can pay 2 dollars for?
Here are my rationalizations:
I can reward myself for 3 smoke free days (using the $ I would have spent on cigarettes)

People say (other people who need to rationalize) that you are more likely to take care of and use a quality notebook than a cheap one.

ugh, a moleskine would be so trendy and hipster…things I generally try to avoid, but darnit, I want one.

I just hope they aren’t made in China. I think they’re European- I’ll have to double check.

in fact

Yeah it’s weird…how can a simple black notebook be addictive? But they are!

I have 4 Moleskine journals in all – 2 which are new and 1 being currently in use. They are amazing.

I also love the smaller ones – I carry one in my bag/purse everytime I go out of state or overseas traveling. Very useful!

I already have a Moleskine address book. I love the classy style and simplicity of these things.

great to get creative juices flowing, i already have two entries! so far, i love it!

I have a few… and oh, how I love them. They sell them at most Barnes & Noble or Borders shops in the US, for those of you who can’t find them. Much cheaper than ordering online.

It’s a bit odd, but this is turning out to be a bit of a nightmare. I’ve looked all over Manchester and can’t find anywhere that sells them.

There’s plenty of websites that sell them (even amazon) but that just feels wrong for some reason. A few mouse clicks and it shows up in a few days? It seems to cheapen the experience and reduce the moleskine to a mere object.

Or perhaps I’m getting a bit too caught up in the hype? yeah. probably. :)
