Lessons from Keeping a Journal & The DayKeeper Giveaway

During this time of the year, most of us already have a journal in hand, ready to start the year. Β I can’t even believe some people go into great lengths to collect all sorts of journals?!!? Well, honestly, I can’t judge you because I also do the same thing with brushes, papers & illustration books. πŸ™‚

What probably attracts us to having a date book is that it helps us organize our life! πŸ™‚
Since we also have space to put events in it, we’re compelled to make new memories with friends and loved ones. Β There are so many journals in the market but I think, what sets The Daykeeper apart is its ability to inspire.

Lessons from a Journal

Personally, Kat San JuanΒ has inspired me to see more of the world. Β We met last year when she revealed to us that she was working on this personal project called The Daykeeper. Β It’s a compilation of her travel photos for the year but it’s also functions as a journal.

Daykeeper 2015 giveaway

This year, I again found myself caught up with so many tasks & found out that Kat was on a month-long trip to the U.S. to gather content for the second installment of The Daykeeper. Β “What am I doing with my life?”, I asked. Β I mean, work will go on forever and I can probably press the pause button and take time to live instead of being obsessed with making a living.

Daykeeper You Make Beautiful Things

The Daykeeper is also filled with little reassuring reminders. Β Just what we need to get through our day, week, month or year!

DayKeeper Giveaway

It’s also filled with Kat’s personal travel photos–a constant reminder for all of us to continue exploring our country and the world we live in. πŸ™‚

Daykeeper Travel Pages

Last October, before I left for Europe, Kat, Aleyn & I met up at this colorful cafe. Β She asked me if I could write some phrases on paper for the wrapper. Β I just thought I would be seeing three words on the cover. Β I made multiple versions of it and got quite shocked my entire handwriting ended up becoming the wrapper of the whole thing!Β Daykeeper with Calligraphy

Anyway, congratulations Kat on the success of the Day Keeper! Β  May you continue to inspire more people to travel, be more grateful, invest in memories and seek inspiration wherever they may find them! πŸ™‚

Thank you as well for setting aside for our blog what might already be the last copy of The Daykeeper 2015!

  1. I have always been obsessed with organizing and pretty-fying stuff in my room that it happens to be exploding with all sorts of DIY organizers. LOL. I like having planners too that isn’t all about scheduling our tasks but also inspiring us to carry on and see the world. It also looks like an awesome way to record memorable times. This Daykeeper would be amazing especially that one of my resolutions this year would be to travel more. πŸ™‚

    Anne’s Scribbles and Doodles

      1. OMG I feel so giddy hearing (reading?) that from you guys! Awww. I have always been a fan of your comics, crazy antics and art. That would be great. Someday I hope. πŸ˜€

  2. I love the idea of a planner that’s also a journal and I’m hoping to renew my love for journaling and recording memories this year.

    1. I really wish I could sit down and record everything offline. I miss having my photos printed and keeping tickets & tiny remembrances & such. <3 -T

  3. I love that aside from being a journal there are inspirational pictures and quotes that are absolutely beautiful based on the sneaks

  4. Aileen Barcarse

    i should win this beautiful planner because i want to give it to my sister who needs to be inspired this year πŸ™‚ with the travel photos inside, my sister will continue to explore the philippines and be motivated to try new things

  5. Betina DueΓ±as

    The Daykeeper date book is such a gorgeous piece of work! I love how it’s tailor made for DIY memory keeping, not only is it a pretty little thing to keep all your thoughts and photos, it also helps you keep organized and grounded for the year. I’ve been after one since I found out about it but I just didn’t have the money to get a copy. Hopefully this time I’ll be lucky haha! I want to win Daykeeper date book because I would love to have something to keep all my dreams and memories for the year ahead in one place! πŸ˜€

  6. I used to write a lot but words have been dwindling away from me these past few years. Maybe it’s busyness from everyday work, studies… Maybe it’s the lack of exposure to truly inspiring things, stories and works.. The way I’m keeping memories the past few years is via social media, yes thank you Timehop for the throwback posts. But I know in my heart that what I post online is not even a fifth of what my day was and what I was thinking about. I would like that to change. I hope to be inspired this year, to bring back that child in me that just wants to write about anything and everything starting with Dear Diary, Today I… And even though I wouldn’t win the Daykeeper (it would suck but that’s life I guess), this comment might just be that one step to that change. And for that, thank you! πŸ™‚

  7. Christine Pelayo

    I’m a planner kind of person, but starting this year I want to change, I want to write about the things happen without planning, the joy and sadness of the unexpected. I write everywhere. It would be nice to have the daykeeper, it’s something where I can express my feelings more and understand a little more of myself. Memories will be well kept and treasured with it. Thank you for this chance, more power! πŸ™‚

  8. I’m looking for a perfect journal for this year and Daykeeper journal is the perfect journal for my 2015 adventures!! <3

  9. The Daykeeper Journal is the perfect one for me, I think, because it’s the perfect avenue that creatives like me need to express themselves through whatever craft–be it writing, photography, visual art, or all three even–with the added functionality that keeps us grounded and organized. <3 This year, I'm trying to give more time for art and travel so it will be grand if I got to win The Daykeeper to put in my memories and adventures! Thanks for this giveaway! πŸ™‚

  10. sherry ann gole cruz

    i should win because i want to be updated and keep my schedule recorded, i always makes my journal as my diary too

    1. Cherrryyyyyyyy! Long time no seee!

      Anyway, enjoy your travels! <3

  12. I’m a tech event junkee and community manager. I travel to a lot of different places to attend events and conferences in my craft and often share it all with the geeks in my community when I come home. Having a journal this inspiring, won’t just keep everything in check, but it’ll remind me about all the other places I have yet to explore and to keep an open mind about the opportunities that await me this year πŸ™‚

  13. I’d love to win the daykeeper journal because with it’s the perfect journal for people who try to live creatively πŸ™‚ 2015 is the year where I hope to go on more creative experiments and adventures and the daykeeper is perfect for tracking down my day-to-day activities. πŸ™‚

  14. I came across the lovely daykeeper planner on Facebook, January of 2014. And from that time, I marveled at how wonderful it is to have all the things I like in one book. Planner-slash-journal-slash-devotional. Indeed, a complete package! But sadly, I wasn’t able to buy the planner last year because I don’t have the enough money to purchase one (since I’m still a student and I depend only on my allowance).So I decided to save, hoping that by 2015, I can already afford to buy a copy. Last December 7, 2014, I sent an email to their page yet until now I haven’t receive any feedback. I also tried to order from Urban Paper Boutique and Heima. Unfortunately, I was informed that it’s now out of stock. Poor me! Yet here I am trying my luck. I’m so thankful for this chance and I’m really really hoping I’ll be the one to have that last copy. πŸ™‚

    1. Hello Angelika!
      I saw all your messages. So sorry we have been swamped with work lately. But, but, buttttt, we’re picking the winners in a bit.
      Good luck! πŸ™‚

    I love this Planner so much! πŸ™‚ I think it’s an essential tool in chasing that I’ve been preparing for for almost 5 years :))

  16. I’ve always wanted to travel. And this planner will take me to places!!! Not literally of course, but still, I’ll get to see place! πŸ™‚

  17. I came across the lovely daykeeper planner on Facebook, January of 2014. And from that time, I marveled at how wonderful it is to have all the things I like in one book. It’s not like other planners. It has pretty photographs in it, doodles, blank pages to fill, and quotes and bible verses to live by, blank pages to fill, and quotes and bible verses to live by. Planner-slash-journal-slash-devotional. Indeed, a complete package! But sadly, I wasn’t able to buy the planner last year because I don’t have the enough money to purchase one (since I’m still a student and I depend only on my allowance).So I decided to save, hoping that by 2015, I can already afford to buy a copy.

I know everyone deserves to win but what sets me apart from them is that I’m Christian trying to be more intimate with God. Having this book with bible verses in it will guide me in planning my endeavors so that my plans will be aligned to His will. πŸ™‚ Blessings!

  19. Christina Cabalonga

    As a mother of a toddler, it would be nice to have a unique planner and keep things organized. The pictures and messages would delightfully bring us inspiration everyday.

  20. I wanted to have my own planner where I can jot down my thoughts and not spend too much money on it. πŸ™‚

  21. Aldine Grace Mendoza

    I wanted this planner ever since, but it’s just too expensive for a student like me. I hope I get to win this one πŸ™‚

  22. 2014 has been a roller coaster ride for me. I want 2015 to be different. I think this journal will inspire me to do better things in life. Live more and do more. πŸ™‚

  23. 2014 was all work and no play for me. I achived a career milestone but sadly, I did not have the time to take vacations, read books, pursue my hobby which is painting and yes, i even forgot to pay for the 2015 datebook that i ordered online (i had regrets until this day). For 2015, i want things to be different, i want to create memorable moments and pursue doing the things i love, and i think the datebook would be the perfect friend which will remind me each day to take some time off for myself and enjoy life. I dont want to have regrets anymore πŸ™‚

    1. I totally know how you feel. The second half of our 2015 was just a blur. I was working over the holidays and the recent long weekend. They would always interview people in their death beds about what they regret most about their life, they said it was the fact that they spent more time working than actually living a life. I hope 2015 will be different for me! I hope my future self will not regret the days that I’ve been toiling in front of my computer. Haha.

      Here’s to a more chill 2015 Hannah!

  24. Personally, I shouldn’t win the Daykeeper 2015 for myself …but Im trying to win this for the girl of my dreams ’cause she totally deserves it. Hopefully, by winning this for her, I get to win her heart as well <3 #HappyVday #JanuaryIsTheNewFebruary

  25. Love at first sight with this journal/planner, unfortanately wasn’t able to buy because it was sold out. If there’s anything I could do just to get this wonderful piece of “art”. #Inspiration2015

  26. Jeanie Nieva-de la Rama

    This year I am embarking on my biggest adventure – motherhood and the daykeeper is the perfect journal to document this journey

  27. Why not? Its such a beautiful journal which I believe that is the very reason why there are comments down below and up above mine. For whatever reason there is, its something special and being able to have one, I suppose is taking part of something “grand”. Have a blessed year ahead everyone!

  28. I already have a planner but the Daykeeper is just so lovely, I would use it as my adventure book as I make 2015 my YEAR! πŸ™‚

  29. Rouella Fajardo

    Having a daykeeper is much more than just getting organized – it’s about living in the moment, gratefully taking in every experience, all while excitedly looking forward to the future. πŸ™‚ I hope to win! πŸ™‚

        1. Thank you! Means a lot to me Cym!
          Most of the time, I really don’t know what I’m doing except for the fact that I love doing it.
          Here’s to more days of drawing! πŸ™‚

  30. I should win the planner because my 2015 is the year when I will have more responsibilities to finish than any other year!

  31. I should (and want) to win this journal because it would help me stay organized and get my work done early, which is my new year’s resolution. Also, the design of this journal can be used as a source of inspiration for my artwork πŸ™‚

  32. This is one cool journal! Been following u in IG and you’ve been inspiring me to be more artistic. Wish i can write more beautifully like

  33. Katherine Aguas

    The Daykeeper is the perfect inspirational tool for me to always take that leap of faith and have an adventure in life. It’s a daily reminder that there are lots of things to be happy about and cherish these moments by scribbling it down in the Daykeeper πŸ™‚

  34. One of my goals for 2015 is to be more positive in life! I’ve made a pact with myself to keep a journal and do my best to win over my anxiety, even if it takes taking risks and facing my fears. I’ve been eyeing this journal for a while now (how perfect!!!) and kudos, really, to you guys for this one!!! Hopefully I’d remember to pre-order next year. Have a great year, everyone!!

I’ve been looking for a journal/planner that suits me as someone who mixes plans and memories into one book for too long.. and I found the DayKeeper but unfortunately, I couldn’t purchase one since it was sold out.. This is my LAST CHANCE to acquired the one i couldn’t let go.. If I were to win, I will surely use it to my hearts content.. It is very inspirational AND cute! I hope i win! #GooglyDayKeeperGiveaway

    The Daykeeper is so beautiful, and I found it when it was already Sold out! I need that kind of everyday inspiration!

  37. I want a Daykeeper because I gave away my planners to my nephews, and I feel strangely bereft without one.

  38. Krizia Salvador

    I believe that The Daykeeper is more than just a planner. It is full of good vibes that will inspire me in taking my daily adventures. This will be a perfect partner in conquering 2015! Looking forward for a wonderful year! πŸ™‚

    -Krizia Salvador

  39. I would really love to have this journal with me as I go through 2015. With new adventures and inspiration to come, I hope to write it down at The Daykeeper. So I’m crossing my fingers for this.

  40. This is my all-time dream planner <3 I love its layout, design, content, images.. everything about it! I love how its simple and beautiful, perfect for keeping all our daily experiences intact in our hearts and minds. It's sad that this planner got sold-out so fast (shows how amazing it is!), so I am praying and wishing hard that I please please please win this! I will be forever grateful πŸ™‚

  41. The Daykeeper Planner would be a great source of inspiration for everyday life and hardships. It’s more than just a planner, it’s a treasure box filled with hopes and positivity. πŸ™‚

  42. I would love to have the DayKeeper 2015 as a part of my goal to keep more memories alive by taking pictures, writing and spending more time with family, friends and loved ones!

  43. I got my dream job at the start of the year (yipee!) and the Daykeeper planner is the perfect companion as I chronicle the challenges I am about to face. This would definitely help me not only in my new role but also in my life as well.:) thank you for having this giveaway πŸ˜€

  44. Anna Janella Inocencio

    I would really love to win this journal because having this would help me remember all the memories I’ve created in 2015.
    Using this in the year 2015 would also keep me inspired and keep organized throughout the year.
    I’m definitely preordering this for the year 2016 πŸ™‚

  45. Marielle Medina

    2014 has been a real roller coaster ride for me, but I’m glad I discovered so many great artists from all over the world (via various social media sites) that helped me keep moving forward despite certain difficulties I had to go through. I got by with the help of inspiring painters, calligraphy artists, crafters, designers and photographers and their beautiful creations. From then on, I knew that all I needed was to follow my heart and pursue my passion to achieve what all these artists already have. This year, I want to keep the fire burning by hopefully winning the Daykeeper 2015. πŸ™‚ I have never wished for anything like it before. πŸ™‚

  46. New year. New beginning. I want an extraordinary year. I want to live each day with smile. An inspirational thing that keeps on reminding me how amazing it is to live. When i saw the daykeeper on the internet, i knew that i need this thing in my life. I dont want an ordinary planner, i want a journal that will fill the pages with the memories that i will treasure forever. And the Daykeeper is the joural that suits me. Unfortunately when i ask how can i avail the planner, it is already sold out. But thanked God for having a giveaway. I hope i can win i will forever be grateful.

  47. A friend gave me a copy as a Christmas present and I want to have another copy so I could also share it with a friend. It has this feel-good feeling to have it given than bought.

  48. I have wanted The Daykeeper ever since it was released, but every time I buy it, it always runs out of stock. So I know the Daykeeper will really inspire me in planning my year and making every minute worthwhile with it as well.

  49. Charlene Mangaldan

    I want to have a cool journal that would help me keep the good memories I have in my entire life.

  50. Janelle Inocencio

    Having this journal will have me smiling every time I open it to write my daily activities. I would love to have this!

  51. This will help me log on everyday . Stopping to be thankful each moment . Pausing to prioritize the most important . Setting up my goals (1. Baby bump ) and planning my travel hopefully.

  52. My heart skipped a beat the moment I saw the giveaway! πŸ™‚ I saw this journal last year at Heima and I promised myself that I’ll have for 2015. However, I wasn’t able to visit Heima and knew that it’s already out of stock. That’s why I’m very happy that googlygooeys has a copy and it’s giving me (everyone) a chance to plan the year right doing the things we love to do, travel the world, be extraordinary in our own little way and write down the things to be happy about. This journal by Kat San Juan will remind me that it’s a great feeling to be inspired and be an inspiration to others everyday.

  53. I should win The Daykeeper Date Book because I am a working stay at home mom who needs to be reminded of so many things every single day. This would help me a lot keep track of what I need to do everyday or simply write what’s on my mind. Thanks for the chance! πŸ™‚

  54. Princess Marie Aquino

    One of my resolutions for the new year is to keep all my happy memories in one book, and I thought that The Daykeeper is the way to go! I absolutely love the idea of it. πŸ™‚

  55. Paula|Ella|Chompy

    I hit the ground running this year. With so many things to do and goals to achieve, I know that it will be challenging for me to keep track of my progress while taking time to appreciate the other things that make me smile. The Daykeeper is my ideal journal because it will remind me of what needs to be, things I look forward to enjoying and things that I should be grateful for. πŸ˜‰

    Thank you for hosting this giveaway!

  56. I’m actually very picky with regards to how anything that I use will complement to my personality. This Daykeeper Datebook 2015 has so far been the one that has clicked on with me right from the start. Having my fingers crossed for this one!

  57. Why should you win The Daykeeper Date Book? I love to travel but i don’t do it often enough because I always second guess myself if travelling is worth it or not. I like the photos shown on this blog and want to see more because I know it can be a boost for me to travel more and it is such a good thing that it is also a journal because every travel every place has a story and writing up my own on the pages will be such a dream!

  58. I should win this giveaway because I will be giving it to my sister. She doesn’t have a journal yet, and I am sure she will love it. The journal is very inspiring in every way, I am sure it will help her a lot this 2015! I really hope I will win this! πŸ™‚

  59. I’m not sure if answering the question as to why I’m the perfect pick to win the planner is even part of the mechanics but it seems fair to state why anyway.

    I discovered the Daykeeper journal for 2015 a bit late and so I was faced with the dilemma of finding and getting my own copy. It’s such a beautiful planner. More beautiful and more awe-inspiring than most. I’ve always been an avid fan of using journals to help me plan and remember how I spent my day, week, and year. And to have it in such an artistic medium is.. beyond words. I know that it’s weak to depend my discipline in continuously planning on the type of journal I write it on but the Daykeeper just gives an extra motivation to keep you from procrastinating in writing. It also serves to inspire one to appreciate life, art and the simple things in life. I think it’s perfect.

    Needless to say, I was distraught when the said planner was deemed “sold-out”. I really do hope and pray that you choose me. I would put the planner to very good use and I promise to stay inspired regardless of the challenges this year may throw at me.

    Thank you for giving all of us a chance at having the Daykeeper 2015! God bless!

  60. I hope to win The Daykeeper Date Book so I can write and keep my daily positive events this year. I’ve been through a lot the previous years and I’m choosing to be positive this year, all the way. I would definitely need this wonderful journal with me to document it.

  61. I have been using planners, journals and datebooks for years but I still haven’t found the elusive “planner peace”. I’ve tried mom planners, coffee planners, cute girly planners, even calendar ones! LOL! No dice. For 2015, I’ve narrowed my search to 3 locally-made planners / journals. One of them was The Daykeeper. I eventually bought a leather-clad journal that came with 3 empty notebooks. I hardly wrote in it. No inspiration in the pages, I guess. I’m currently using a monthly planner but the space for writing is scarce. Now all that’s left of my top3 is The Daykeeper but then as it turns out, its out of stock. Harsh! But thankfully, I might just win it here! And maybe this IS finally the planner / journal for me! <3

  62. i’m not really a fan of using journals and planners but i’ve tried some but maybe because i haven’t found perfect planner/journal for me.but this one? i find this one really interesting and as i see its really inspiring also i hope i’ll be given a chance to try this Daykeeper journal πŸ™‚ i hope i’ll won this , it will be one of the best birthday gift i’ll receive if ever. godbless thankyou for giving us all a chance to win this journal.

  63. Christine Antonette

    I really really want this datebook! I didnt get the chance to purchase one because I didnt make it to the cut off! Really hoping and wishing I’d score this one! It’s really an inspiring and motivating planner!

  64. Really hoping to win this datebook! It’s an amazing journal that I can put both agendas and pictures on! It’s filled with tons of beautiful pictures and quotations that would surely inspire me the whole year round! And after several years of finding & trying several kinds of journals and planners, I think I finally found the perfect one! Hoping that I’d win this!!

  65. Engielyn Naranja

    As I read this blog post, I also felt that feeling of questioning myself of what am I doing in my life. There so much our life outside the box has to offer and we should be exploring it. One of my 2015 goals (well, my yearly goal though haha) is to have some time exploring and to see other places. I like going to other places and see what that place has to offer me. With this datebook, I can really make that goal possible. I can also share it with my family and friends so we all could try and see what other places can offer us. I also love those inspiring travel photos. <3

  66. 2015 is my year of goals, of acting on them, and of taking risks. It would be a treat to have within reach the motivation to keep on going no matter how difficult. Inspiration at its best!

  67. The photographs are just simply amazing. The way they are placed upon the layout in the Daykeeper journal rounded up its intricate beauty, and I swear the moment that I saw this journal I just craved for it. Who wouldn’t want to write about your steps and milestones in life with this? This planner alone is not only useful, but it gives a sense of flashback, in photos, bundled in a book like no other. And I guess just by wanting this journal and the feelings that I have that goes with it is enough reason of why this is none like the rest, none like the flashy and glossy-papered planners ever made to life. πŸ™‚

  68. I need this planner because I am planning to do a lot of things this 2015. But the most important one I really really want to achieve is to slowly go out of my comfort zone. I want to go out more, travel more, and see more wonders. And at the same time, I want to be inspired, and be more creative; write more and feel more. And I believe that this planner would be a very very great help not only to achieve my goals this 2015, but to remind me of the beauty this world has to offer.

  69. The Daykeeper is really interesting. I believe I’ll find more inspirations in this journal. I don’t usually travel a lot but I love to read and look at beautiful photos from books, magazines and online that’s why I’m really excited to see more of the featured photos inside this journal and your works Ms Tipsy. Hope to have a copy of this. A blessed 2015 everyone!

  70. I wanted this to be a gift for myself last Christmas but they ran out of stock and aren’t reprinting anymore. I plan to travel more this year and learn a new skill. I hope to have The Daykeeper with me as I fulfill my 2015 goals.

  71. Charlene Espinosa

    I’ve been looking so long for a planner where I can write my everyday thoughts and can inspire me every day and this planner would be just perfect!

  72. Since it’s a new year, I want to try something new and that is to be organized. To have a planner like this is a stepping stone to fulfill my new year’s resolution. I want to write all my plans, my goals, the things I’ve accomplished/I will accomplish for this year, and all the special moments that will happen. πŸ™‚

  73. Charlette Sanacia Revil

    Been wanting to get a hold of a copy but they ran out of stock. I even ask them if they’re reprinting and that I’m okay even if I receive it in March but unfortunately they can’t. πŸ™ Well anyway, I love this datebook because it’s so personal. It’s full of motivation and inspiration and it has lot’s of bible verses too πŸ™‚

  74. crossing my fingers for the daykeeper journal giveaway. Been wanting this so badly i cannot find something close to it as a replacement. i know amazing things will happen this year, pick me and make me the happiest girl on the planet.haha. Here’s to new happy adventures! God Bless us all!

  75. I’ve always wanted to live an organized but active life. I want to record everything that’s happening in my life so I have something to look back on. Something close to scrapbooking my entire life. But I’m too busy (lazy, rather) to actually make a scrapbook. I haven’t tried keeping a journal before as most journals/planners I see just doesn’t have that “motivating” feeling. It doesn’t look like something that would make me excited to open it up and write away whatever I feel like writing at the time. I want something that reminds me of my goals and the things I could do to attain them. I think The Daykeeper would be a lovely reminder of just that. Also, I just declared my 2015 as the year of adventures! I hope The Daykeeper would be my companion in this 365 days of happiness.

    I want to start each day in the year 2015 with a clean slate and I know The Daykeeper would be of much help to keep me motivated and reminded of my goals & aspirations each day. I was one of those given a chance to pre order the journal but due to some reason I wasn’t paying attention and early this year found out that they are out of stock. I searched the net to see where I can find stocks but have no means of travelling abroad this given time. I remember telling a friend that I have this beautiful journal on the way and I won’t be needing to fill 18 coffee stickers to get a planner bec I was expectant of The Daykeeper. I believe this is my second chance to get this and I took every means to hopefully win. Even created a Twitter account for the first time, haha! But set aside I admire the works of the team of The Daykeeper and GooglyGooeys. I believe in the power of papers and pen, the beautiful words and pictures they allow us to write & draw through them. Preserving the emotions of each day may it be a good day or bad day. I hope to be blessed today! God bless you too! πŸ™‚

  77. I’ve always wanted a copy of The Daykeeper. Same as with last year, I didn’t get a hold of a copy this year. They ran out of stock the day I was supposed to place an order πŸ™ Life has been a mess since then.. (OA 20 days palang but huhu) To be honest, it’s one of the most beautiful planners/journals here in our country. I like how it’s made to be personal and inspirational. Seeing the verses on some of the pages is a great way to remind us of His love. The photos inside are just stunning. Everything about this datebook is beautiful and I really do hope I win this giveaway! I’ve been looking for a copy of this everywhere and wala na talaga. πŸ™ I asked some of my relatives in the US (because of that one store that resells The Daykeeper) but they’re way too far from that place. I almost gave up in owning a planner this year, I thought “nah you have your phone, just download some apps” but iba pa rin talaga pag sinusulat. It’s more personal <3 I hope I get a copy of this! May you have an awesome year!

    1. I totally agree with the ” iba pa rin talaga pag sinusulat” part!
      I still enjoy writing my thoughts down. It’s different when you’re typing it on your screen with all the potential distractions!

    I always wanted to have The Day Keeper Datebook because it’s a planner and journal in one! it means yayy for more space for writing! It will also truly make your innermost thoughts come out in the open as we right it down as a daily habit of reflecting. Such a perfect “Me Time” in just a few minutes squeezed in my daily busy schedule! Not only that it will help me achieve my goals this year by keeping myself on track through checking my daily habits through a planner πŸ™‚ Didn’ t I mention the travel photos & inspirational quoted inside the datebook are very unique, will surely inspire me to travel more and keep motivated! I wasn’t able to get this since it was sold out just before 2014 ends. Joining this giveaway is the only chance for me to get this. So help me God! πŸ™‚

    1. Writing down your innermost thoughts on a journal is something precious especially in the age of social networking where it seems like everything is made to be seen & consumed by the public. :O πŸ™‚

  79. Omg I’ve been searching high and low for this Day Keeper Daybbok. It’s one of the best one out there. I actually bought one but gave my copy away as a Christmas present since one of my friend needed it for motivation. Thank for hosting this awesome give away!! It’s the best and I win so I can have a copy!

  80. I was planning to order the daykeeper 2015 journal but I was already too late. It was really my topmost wishlist. And I was really happy to find this giveaway. My friend has a daykeeper 2014 and it really suits me that’s why I have a hard time finding a good journal that suits my everyday life other than the daykeeper. I hope the odds are in my favor. crossed finger πŸ˜€

    1. I know how you feel! I also have a hard time finding a journal I can commit to for a year! Haha.
      Good luck & let the games begin. πŸ˜‰

  81. I wish to give it to my sister who has been searching for the perfect journal. She is currently in her thesis year for masters in developmental psycology and it would be great for her to have such a tool to motivate her daily.

    She also loves to be in the moment and i’d love for her to be able to capture and relive the best through writing. πŸ™‚

  82. One November evening, I was browsing the internet for planners/journals and The Daykeeper Journal blew me away! I kept searching for other journals because I knew it won’t be possible for me to have my own copy anymore (because everybody wants it, but I can’t blame them!) but there’s just none like The Daykeeper.

    I also felt a weird connection between Miss Kat and found myself so inspired that day. I was just browsing for a planner and ended up being so inspired and hooked up to her blog.

    Also, I’ve been a Googley Gooeys fan since high school and that wrapper was beautiful!! You had me at “You are loved.” I definitely am! We are! πŸ™‚ Tipsy, Ponggo and Kat, please continue with your works and collaborations because you inspire a lot of people. You are blessed!

    1. Oh wow. Since high school? I feel so old. Hahahaha! πŸ™‚
      Yup, I feel that Kat deserves all the success her DayKeeper is getting because her work is so heartfelt and sincere! πŸ™‚ <3

  83. I would seriously love to have the daykeeper to Keep me going throughout this year
    I would love to have it to write my dreams and goals in and
    I also like the fact that it has reassuring reminders throughout the book which would be wonderful help to me.
    My dream is to be an artist and I think this book would be of great help to me.

  84. Noong unang nilabas ang daykeeper journal nung 2013, gusto ko na agad magkaroon ng kopya. Ang problema, lagi naman akong nauubusan kasi hindi umaabot ‘yung ipon ko. Tuwing nagkakaroon ako ng pera, out of stocks na. Huhu. #studentallowanceproblems

    Iba kasi ang appeal sa akin ng journal na ‘to. Rustic x hippie ang dating sa akin. :)) Hindi pa kailangang malunod sa kape para makakuha nito at wala ring maraming kaartehan tulad ng mga designed journals/planners sa bookstore. Sarap magbalik loob sa pagsusulat at photography. Tama lang din ‘yung mga nakalagay na motivational quotes at photos para magkaroon pa ng inspiration ‘yung gagamit to have an adventurous year ahead. Parang binubulungan akong “Hoy, tingnan mo ‘tong pictures. Ang ganda-ganda ng mundo at lalo na ng buhay. Anong ginagawa mo diyan? Bakit nakababad ka lang sa laptop buong araw?!” HAHA.

    1. I totally understand. I’ve been a victim of drinking coffee for planners too for a couple of years. Hahahaha.
      Well, good luck! I’ll be picking the winner in a bit. πŸ™‚

    this is a lovely planner. it would help me a lot in accomplishing my travel plans

    and documenting my daily adventures. hope to win πŸ™‚

    1. The words “daily adventure” is nice. We often think we need to travel far when in fact every single day is really an adventure if only we treat it that way. πŸ™‚ -T

  86. “The Daykeeper is a datebook for dreamers who chronicle their daydreams, for visionaries whose plans are too big to be boxed in by lines, for sentimentalists who want to make their favorite moments last forever.”

    When we’re younger, there was a lot of room for trial & error, and career shifts, and spontaneous road trips, and impulsively bought plane tickets. But as we grow older and little lives are suddenly dependent on (and affected by) the choices we make, we find ourselves taking more calculated steps. It’s not that we’re being uptight, we’re just trying hard to be responsible. We become more mindful about how we use our time and money, and whether or not something is a worthy investment. Passions and priorities naturally shift. Either we set aside our dreams for later, or we learn to chase new dreamsβ€”ones that are more for our family than for ourselves.

    So maybe the chase slows down a little when we become mothers, but one thing for sure, we never stop dreaming.

    Moments later, I started to worry. What if I end up not being able to write anything on it? Am I too old for this? Do I have enough dreams to fill these pages?

    To add to the list of things that have taken a backseat in my life, I’ve been writing on my journals less this year too. Which is a predicament, because I purchase more notebooks and journals and planners and paper things than I can consume in this life. I haven’t even purchased myself a DayKeeper Datebook yet but already it’s doing its job of awakening the dreams that I’ve conveniently tucked away for later!I’m sure you have your own battles to face and struggles to overcome, making the most out of your 24 hours each day, and making sense out of your 365 days. I pray that in the busy-ness of our days we will find slivers of time to appreciate beauty in the mundane, be grateful for every good and perfect gift, and to make little steps towards our dreams.

    And I hope we find time to write them down, too.

    I think I need to get myself a Daykeeper Datebook. And then I’ll promise myself to make big and small dreams happen this coming 2015. So I hope to win this TIpsy & Ponggo!! πŸ™‚

  87. Because I sincerely believe that this journal is LOVE! And because 2015 is a turn-things-around kind of year for me, I’m hoping to win this because it will surely be a big motivation and source of inspiration!!!

      1. Exactly! πŸ™‚

        On another note, I signed up for the workshop on Feb 7. I’m not sure if I made it to the last 3 slots. I haven’t received any email πŸ™ can you help me to double check? Thank you!

        1. Hello Jane!
          Just got swamped with work lately but I’ll be contacting everyone about the status of their application via e-mail or SMS soon. πŸ™‚

          See you around!
          -T

    Everyday of my life is a journey worth living and this planner would be the tailor-fit companion to my once in a lifetime opportunity to seize the day.

  89. I’m 37, still single, at the top of the corporate ladder, but currently at that stage in my life where I am desperately seeking for inspiration and meaning. I’ve always been an avid traveller and I like to write. I have, at one time, toyed with the idea of starting a blog, but have let my busy corporate life deter me from giving in to that passion. But I vowed that 2015 is going to be a breakout year for me. I have devoted enough of my time to my work and this year I am looking at giving myself a chance to grow outside of the corporate setting. It’s time to pay attention to Pam. To get to know myself more, identify my goals and dreams, and build the courage to pursue them. I wanna do a “Kat San Juan” (ala eat, pray, love) — be brave enough to travel the world and see and experience things in different ways. The Daykeeper would be a great companion throughout this journey I am about to take towards self-discovery.

    1. Wow, that would be really awesome!
      Looking forward to your travel stories. I traveled alone last year and it was really different.
      You get to discover more things about the place & especially about yourself. πŸ™‚
