Work Planner 2024 - Jan to May Monthly Spread

Using a book planner is a habit that i picked up since i was 15 to keep track of work to be done & deadlines... it was even identified as an item that has the greatest impact on me in a blog challenge i did 12 years ago...


ex-big boss gifted us at least 3 notebooks in the last few years so i used one of them as my work planner this year...


< a Mon to Fri only monthly view >


< a one for all, all for one weekly view >


also in this work planner are this & that & these & those about work... and this art scheme of work is one that i refer to the most... 

as can seen... a work planner is really just a work planner for me... record work info & work deadlines... period!!!... so boring, so un-artsy for an art cher seh!!! 😒😒😒



chanced upon this video from my favourite art cher and decided to include something similar into my next work planner... i really should be doing a little more artsy sketch &/or doodling given my profession...😅😅😅


one video led to another video, one idea led to another idea... 心痒痒 + 手痒痒 so made good use of these 3 marking days to beautify this notebook that i received as cher's day prezzie this year into Work Planner 2024... 


was surprised to learn that there's something super duper big about using a planner called Bullet Journaling aka Bujo developed by Ryder Carroll in 2013... According to him, bullet journaling method is an analog system to track the past, organize the present & plan for the future. It has its own suggested structure, a book and even an online course on it. 


way too structured + too tedious for me... but i'm super thankful to the gazillion creative individuals who created and shared elaborated versions of their bullet journals online and who inspired me to create my own version of work planner with a fun fun activity to keep me entertained every month... 😍😍😍


< January   一月 >

activity of the month is to design 一个 tattoo that represents 蔡家... it is something that i have been thinking of getting for the last 1 or 2 years 了... i like line tattoo, i like minimalist tattoo, our family chat group name is 🐭🐔🐴🐶🐷 based on our zodiac, 一线 (one line) animal drawing is in my P1 art curriculum... want to combine all these elements together and hopefully doodle out a design that will become permanent on me in 2024... 😍😍😍

 < February   二月 >

two is a pair... shall do still-life sketch of things which i have / see in pairs in this month... top on my list are my Chanel earrings... 😂😂😂


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


< March   三月 >

three's a crowd... three sounds like tree so i googled 'tree bullet journal idea' and a tree theme mood tracker caught my attention... inspired by it and modified it into a healthy habit tracker that tracks my daily steps and veg consumptions in March... 

clocking steps has became a permanent lifestyle change since Oct 2021 based on the 21/90 rule that states that it takes 21 days to make a habit and 90 days for it to become a permanent lifestyle change... hopefully this veg consumption tracker can encourage and motivate me to eat more veg daily... my body needs the iron in spinach, broccoli & string beans!!! 😂😂😂


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


< April   四月 >

四叶草s are rare to find & lucky to have... so April shall be a month of gratitude where i jot down people &/or things that i'm lucky to have in my life... 😍😍😍


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


< May   五月 >

May captured painful memories in 2018 and in 2023... thankfully, it's also a month of many happy memories & celebrations; mother's day & hatchdays of angela, snowy, mx, michelle, julia & cherandy...  

yet to decide what portrait style would i have of them though... totally 不信任 my human drawing skill... 😰😰😰... worse comes to worst, take pic, print pic, paste pic... wahahaha... 


That's all for now... decorating Work Planner 2024 is gonna keep me very engaged & entertained for the next few weeks... 😍😍😍
