You go to a shop and you spend about an hour finding your perfect notebook. It must be high quality. You never go anywhere without it. You put in it random lists, pictures, facts, quotes, mathematic problems, doodles, plot ideas, reminders, calenders, tables, profound thoughts, jokes, puns, whatever. LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR - it is NOT a diary OR a journal and should not be treated as such. It works amazingly. You call it the notebook and the number one rule is that you NEVER, EVER, EVER let ANYONE read it. You can show them a specific page, but you can't just hand it to them and let them flick through it. You should always follow this rule or when you write in it you become self conscious. The notebook should always remain completely uncensored. Also, you never erase anything or rip out pages.

The thing is, I hate math, but 1) my dad, mom, and younger brother love it AND are good at it 2)I hate it, but I'm always at the top of my class, so there's a plus....you should see MY math notebook...it has lots of Twilight things in it, funny enough...

Well, sometimes. Writing is fun, too, but I like to know where my writing notes are, and few get put in my math homework. I love to write, but English homework isn't as fun as math homework because English teachers either make you write non-fiction or poetry. Those are worse than math. Math is understandable I tell you. It has rhyme and reason. Poetry doesn't (many argue otherwise), and non-fiction is (boring, yes, and structured strictly)self-explanatory. Give me free rein on a fiction story any day and I can do that (unless I'm in a coma). NaNoWriMo!! Math is fun! Well, sometimes.

Accounting and math have more writing notes than actual notes. I think that all that is needed is the basic math: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. I am a business major and should be studying for that math exam tonight. That’s funny because that’s what my notebooks look like. Accounting and math have more writing notes than actual notes.
