An addendum to my last post:

Please, please feel free to evangelise your favourite type of notebook*, brand of pen, intricately crafted bullet journal method, complex note-taking and revision technique, anything that makes life/study easier for you!


*I probably won't be adopting a new notebook for this semester, but there's always next semester ;)

My current method for daily planner stuff is cutting recycle paper with a blank side into roughly 4.25 x 5.5 inch sheets, dating them, then stamping or stenciling checkboxes in 2 or 3 clusters.

Notes, I use a lined pad and I really want a self-inking, self-updating date and time stamp to replicate Notepad's behavior with the F5 key.

In Word, I use the multi level organization headers, especially after I learned that you can drag and drop to shuffle the order.

I take pictures of the paper notes, but that's a vaguely terrible archive system.

An automatic date/time stamp sounds like the kind of project some enterprising maker should really be working on! Sure, it would be complicated, but that's half the fun. (Looks like they exist, but not in a format that would be convenient for journalling.)

Is this the Word automatically generated contents page? You can reorder those? :O

There's a panel that turns on and off under the View tab, and that's the one. So useful.
