Ever since I was about 8 years old, I have been collecting all sorts of small notepads. My Mom says I am obsessed with them and she recently found a box I packed before moving out from my house in Mexico FULL of small notepads in all colors and designs. I normally take really good care of my belongings so even if these notepads are many years old, they are still in top condition, the funny thing is, not a single page has been used.
Today I realized my Mom was right, I am indeed obsessed with buying small notepads but the curious thing is that even if I am a grown up now, I still have a thing for childish looking ones. I always think to myself; "I could really use this one! Bring it in my purse everywhere I go and write everything that comes to mind!". I can tell you that has never happened, but maybe, just maybe, this is the notepad that will finally get me to write on it, I mean, its pink and its has hearts on it! How can I resist? :)
Desde que era chiquita me da por coleccionar libretitas. Mi mama dice que estoy obsesionada y hace poco encontro una caja de las que empaque antes de venirme a Europa, llena de libretitas de todos tamaños colores y diseños. Normalmente cuido muchísimo mis cosas, así que aunque estas libretas tienen años y años, siguen como nuevas, lo mas curioso es que en ninguna he escrito, todas las paginas están en blanco.
Hoy me di cuenta que mi mama tiene razón, ciertamente estoy obsesionada por comprar libretas pero lo que mas me llama la atención es que a pesar de que ya no soy una niña, las libretas que mas me gustan son las que se ven mas infantiles (No me refiero a ninguna con la cara de Bob Esponja, no me vayas a mal interpretar :P).
Siempre me digo a mi misma: "En esta libreta si voy a escribir, es mas, la voy a meter a mi bolsa y la voy a llevar a todos lados, nunca sabes cuando te va a llegar la inspiración y necesites escribir".

haha I have the same obsession! But with a tiny problem... I usually right like one or two pages of each!! Crazy! =P
I understand your obsession! Sometimes when things look so pretty, I get this urge to buy it then later think "what am i going to do with this?" haha :))

Aww I love cute little notepads too! The one in the picture is adorable :)

It is so cute! I always fall for cute notepads, but never actually use them once I buy them!
I'm obsessed with them too. That pink one is so cute.
I do the exact same thing - I can't stop buying pretty notepads but all of their pages are empty!!

I think I share this obsession. I can keep myself from buying the booklets now, but especially really soft paper (think moleskine`s) really attracts me ;) .
I just learned that always just buying notepads that I won`t ever use won`t do my wallet any good.
this is so cute! i like the little heart on them :)

Sounds familiar! I have the same obsession, but I did write in them (only a few pages) and then they are just lying in my drawer (for a long time)! So we're having the same 'problem' here! Yours is lovely :) May many thoughts be written in it!

:))) I know what you mean, I still have all my pinkish notepads in a drawer...And every year I plan to do something with them, but I never got round to that.And I can't really use then know, because everyone else on my research is sooo serious and boring:(
Me too!This one is especially nice :)

Same here! :) This must be a girls thing because I have quite a collection too ;) **
Having childish habbits let us be just for a little more children..!!so go for it my girl!!

I've been buying these notepads since I was little, too, and never wrote anything inside.
This year I bought a new one, and, now, after 20 days, I realized I started to write little things inside... Since I have few little project going on (connected to my work, my hobbies, my travel plans), I find myself quite often to write inside little ideas that jump into my mind while on train or somewhere not close to my computer! And-yes, it's pink and too sweet! (and I am 24 year old and working full time serious job!), but I have a big le sac where I can hide it from my bussine colleagues (mostly men)!
So, perhaps, who knows, this pink beauty will maybe actually be useful one day!
soo pretty :)
Oh the Book is really lovely! It looks so cute!

Haha wat grappig, die "obsessie."
Ik vind deze ontzettend schattig, heel veel succes met al je notities opschrijven haha!
I had/have the very same obsession! I think it was a little girl thing, and it carried through to our adulthood!
I have the same obsession but I never keep one for a longtime because I don't write so many thing and it's not practical, but I still buy it.. lol

I'm always buying things I never use, but that's not the case with notebooks. I always need them wherever I go, but I never seem to have one with me...
http://borrowedwardrobe.blogspot.com
I like collection small notepads too!! hahaha
http://www.martasfashiondiary.com/
Si te sirve de ayuda, yo la llevo en el bolso, para apuntar detalles de la gente que me llaman la atención, un pantalón, una camisa, un trend, como una clase de"coolhunter notebook", me sirven de mucha ayuda en las clases, y sobretodo si me viene algún diseño a la cabeza(soy diseñadora),puedo esbozar por encima, antes que se me olvide, y cuando llegue a casa, plasmarlo en el Dina 3. ;-)
Espero que te ayude

I'm a notepad nerd too. I would buy notepads and journals. I wrote in every single one of them, but never completed each page. Then I would just buy another one and repeat. I bought mine because my journalism professor taught us to always keep a notepad in hand in case a story broke. :) And I love writing utensils and notepads.
I too carry a notebook with me everywhere in case I think of something or see something that I want to remember later (because if I don't write it down, I'll forget LOL) My notebook isn't as cute as yours, though :)
So cute!
very cute!!!

You can never have enough notepads haha :) I do the same thing! This notepad is such a lovely one <3
I have the same "problem". From a year ago, I told my self that I wouldn't buy anything that I know have tons at home that I can use.
I own tons of pens, pencils, notebooks, and jelwery, that most I dont use because I dont want to damage it!

I was the same, as I child I would buy notepads, and agends, but never use them lol. But now I can't live whithout them both!
And now I'm on the hunt for a 2012 agenda!
you're not alone- I have the same obsession :)
I totally understand as I have the same obsession myself! I collect notebooks especially pink, red and orange ones and I never use them. Everytime I say to myself ''I'll buy this and I'll certainly use it this time.''
Me encanta tu blog!! eres todo una innspiracion para las mexicanas!

I share the same obsession. When I see a pretty little notepad I just have to have it. But never write anything. It's funny :)
A mí las libretitas, boligrafos y demás me encantan!
Siempre que veo alguno que me gusta por determinada cosa me lo tengo que comprar!
Un besote guapa!

ME TOO DEAR!! In the exactly same way!! Ahahahah I'm glade there's someone else with this obsession!! :D <3
I have the same kind of obsession! I kept buying little notepads and books just because they were cute, but I kept them in boxes unused. I don't buy that much anymore but I can't help it whenever I see the cute little things.
Same here haha, they´re soo cute!
http://i-have-no-inspiration.blogspot.com/
Tienes un serio problemita hahaha, mi hermana mayor es igual, pero con las hojas de las libretas, esas que tienen algún diseño bonito en algún lado. Está bellisima esa la de la foto. Parece de Agatha Ruiz de la Prada junto al lapicero, quizás te gusten sus diseños porque son así, coloridos e infantiles. Xoxo
That's exactly what i do! But I'm trying really hard to not to leave them "untouched" from my pen. :D
I totally understand ypur pbsession girls.. For those who love beautiful notebooks, visit this page. You won't resit! But please, do use them, they are great at keeping our memories and thoughts!..

Yo tmb tengo la misma obsesión!
Amo las de Jordi Labanda, compro y compro cómo si no tuviera jajajaja
Colecciono millones de libretas! me encanta! Andy cuando vas a venir a Lima? Ojalá pronto. Mañana me voy a México! yupi!!!
www.carlasbreakfastime.com
Yo solia hacer las mias, compraba hojas de colores, las cortaba y pegaba, y las forraba con un material mas resistente xD
Esa libretita que pones me recuerda a Romero Brito, amo su estilo de diseños♥
I always say i'm going to do that too and i never do lol but hopefully that will change one day.
