What Acid got for me from Japan

1.jpg


When @acidyo was in his trip in Japan, he asked me what I want from there. I thought maybe I wanted something stationery since they have a lot of awesome stationery stuff. I didn't really need anything from there and I didn't want to buy a lot of stuff I didn't need so I just told him to not worry about it. When he got home, I was surprised he still got me some stuff. :D

Aside from the treats he got, here are the stationery items.

I am very particular about my planners since I need them to work for me otherwise it would be useless. I first thought of him checking the planners there since they have a lot, but then I remembered maybe it would not be a good idea cos it's not easy to find something that I like.

I usually just want the monthly and weekly pages and no other unnecessary stuff that's distracting.

First one is a planner for the year 2025. It has free stickers that are so cute lol I wish there was more. XD

On the first few pages, it has a monthly plan which is very useful to have an overview of the whole year. I had this in my bullet journal before too and it was helpful for me to keep track of events.

It also has a wish list which I also found very useful. :D

Then the monthly spread. It was just the perfect size and also has a daily overview on the left which is just what I need.

And it has the weekly pages as well! This is also very important for me to have since this is the system that has worked for me before. This will be my main planner I think, and I'm glad he chose the right one. XD Some planners don't have weekly and some are just dailies, which is why it's hard to find planners sometimes.

This one was quite confusing at first because of the word 'storage' but it makes sense. You can temporarily store important papers on the side like bills or receipt. Pretty cool. :D



DSCF4487.jpg

Then the monthly spread. I like the big space since it doesn't have a weekly spread. The rest of the pages are grid pages so it's a lot of pages for writing so maybe that would fit into content plans and ideas.

Next one is also a planner but with more relaxed pages. I think @acidyo got these to be safe cos he knows I'm very particular with my planners lol.

These are mostly the pages and it's not much so I don't know yet what to use this for. It's more like a journal imo and would be fun to print some photos to put in there. :D



DSCF4501.jpg

Next one is this sticker book. He didn't know what they were but he bought them cos they look cute. I had a guess what they were based on the cover but I wasn't sure since the text are all in Japanese.

So you take those sticker and decorate your stuff which was really cute. It reminded me of those paper dolls where you can change what they wear and stuff. I played those a lot back then. :D



DSCF4508.jpg

He also remembered I was playing that one cozy cafe game on my iPad that's why he got this as well. XD



DSCF4509.jpg

DSCF4511.jpg


He got this Pokemon coloring book as well. We now have a coloring book that has less details than what I have currently so we can do so with less worries. :D He really wants to use the Copics haha.



DSCF4513.jpg

If there are papers, of course there should be pens as well! Especially Japan has some of the best pens ever.



DSCF4514.jpg

One pen that I specifically requested was this Sarasa clip pen. @wittyzell gave me a pen through @judetheartiste and it was the BEST pen I've ever tried. A lot of pens are too runny, too 'dry', or would stop writing after dropping it once but this one is just my favorite. It writes so smooth and you'd know what I'm talking about once you try it.

I've never seen this pen being sold here yet, so I really wanted Acid to find this but it wasn't hard for him to find it. I guess it's a popular pen. :D



DSCF4517.jpg

Then he had this cat stickers as well which are really cute. He was saying all designs are unique and he wasn't wrong. XD



DSCF4522.jpg

And this tiny deer from Nara park. :D



Acid has been really thoughtful and he knows what I want even when I didn't know them myself. XD I like them all. As for the treats, we already ate them. They were mostly mochis and chocolates.

Thank you Acid!

That's so cool and so nice of your friend. It's kinda funny how when we're traveling, that's the only time we see those merch shops tho I don't think they market mainly for tourists. They are never in my city lol

Japan has the best stationery, you feel like you want to buy up the whole shop when you go in

Whenever I go to any Japanese dollar stores, they always have those products that you didn't know you need. 😂 Most especially for stationery. :D

So true. :D
I just searched on Shopee, and they have! Apparently you can get it from the Zebra official store. I didn't realize it was that brand but I just remembered I really like the ballpoint pens of Zebra back then so it makes sense. They are worth it imo, tho if you write a lot you might use it all up fast.

I have this daily habit of scrolling in pinterest and aside from poems and proses, stickers and stationaries are in my algorithm also. That is when I knew Japan has a lot of shops containing stationaries and I then started liking stickers. In fact, I have it all over my laptop and when I go to cafes with my friends they would ask why I have a lot of things in my laptop. LOL. That gifts are so cute and useful, especially your planner. I hope they will be filled of plans and success all throughout the pages. I envy a bit the pokemon drawing book because the only drawing books I have are those princess illustrations. Online shops are expensive also haha so I ask some from my aunties who travels a lot.

Oooh my algorithm was kinda like that too at some point just because I was looking for inspiration for bullet journals. Pinterest is pretty awesome although sometimes I wish the algorithm doesn't change that fast you know what I mean? I would search about something one time and the next time it's all I see. T_T

Thank you! I hope you can find Pokemon drawing/coloring books. It's not easy to find I think haha most of the coloring books are for kids. 😂

Yeah he's very thoughtful and attentive haha. He was quite nervous about the planners if he bought the right ones and was relieved that they are.

Collecting pens and notebooks feel so good hahah. No wonder you gave them, you know what's the best. Maybe if I go to Japan at some point too I won't be able to stop myself buying stationeries lol
