For your information, I specifically scrolled back, to see when was the challenge covering this topic announced by 
Ok, let's get serious, shall we?
Before you say anything, let me admit I'm an addict. We're living in a digital era, but I'm addicted to paper in general, notebooks and handwriting. You're going to see it for yourself and figure it out, but I wanted to admit it first, before you do.
This is a part of my collection. There's another set of notebooks you're going to see later in this post. How many are in this pile? Don't ask me as I have no clue and I'm afraid to count them 馃槀 so let's see what is in here exactly.
This is a heavy, A4 size notebook with 200 pages and although the paper is very good quality, the lines are too invasive and when I look at the writing, mostly see the lines and it's really disturbing, not the experience I want. I got this a long time ago, it was a gift, when I was still at the university and as I never throw away good paper, it is just sitting in my drawer, waiting for something to happen.
This is also an A4 size notebook, with the sheets ready, if you want them in a folder. The paper quality is really good, so I could not leave it in the store, had to buy it.
Then comes another set of 8 A4 size notebooks.
I'm not a biker but the designer of this cover knew what they were doing for sure as I wanted a copy for myself.
Same story here, but this is a bit more interesting. They sure know how to make these supplies attractive, not just for kids, but for adults too.
Two more notebooks, checkered and lined.
This was not an emotional buy as I my preference is clean pages, not checkered or lined. It helps me a lot to be able to arrange the text as I want and what better way then to have a totally clean sheet. Unfortunately these vellum notebooks are not very popular, I suppose it's harder to write on them, especially at a young age.
If you look at the cover of the notebook above, most likely you can guess why I bought it. I trust you you're smart enough to figure it out 馃槅 I mean, how can you leave without buying it, right? At this point I have to tag 
The last two of this lot are these two. Nothing special here, but the quality of paper was really good and price/quality ratio as well.
These one are not fancy, but are vintage (in my book anyway) as they are from my school years and that was not yesterday 馃槀.
This is where things change a little. These two notebooks are also very old, were both spiral notebooks with metal spiral, but at some point, years ago I thought it's time to personalize them so to speak. So I removed the metal spiral, used a thread instead.
It was a challenge as I've never done this or seen it how it's done, so it was fun.
The pages here are a bit wavy, must have been exposed to humidity at some point in its life, but that's not a problem for me, on the contrary, it's a plus when it comes to old paper.
This had a really boring cover, so what I did was glue a page of a magazine on it, to make it unique.
Looks awful as the applied page is not the size needed to fully cover it, but it makes unique 馃槅 I've been doing this in school and everyone was envious as I had the coolest notebooks in every class.
These are not my favorite, for several reasons, like I don't like that you have to tear off the sheets, the quality is not what I prefer, on the last one the lines are so close to each other that writing is hard, so they are just sitting in my drawer.
This is a drawing book, that I bought when I joined Hive in 2018 and started practicing drawing. This one is empty because I had another two, that I used back then and now I have better quality paper, so most likely I'm going to donate this to the orphan kids before Christmas as I'm making a pack or two each year for them. I like the design of the cover though.
These are A5 size notebooks, perfect for daily notes, but not more. However, again, marketing and good design are always winning 馃槅
Same story here.
How can you resist such a cover? 馃槀
These are hardcover, spiral, A5 size checkered notebooks and I bought them as they were on sale. 1euro for this quality is dirt cheap and I'm thinking of selling them for a bit of profit.
This is a paperback, nothing fancy, for notes.
And this is where the fun begins. I loooooooooooooooove these notebooks, the cover and the paper as well. This one was calling my name as it's my favorite color, the cover is excellent quality, cushioned as well and the paper is ecru, plus thick enough, as I like it. It is not dated either, which is a huge plus.
These two are also the same category and waiting for me to use them.
馃槅 Need I say more here? I mean how can you not buy it? It has a pencil as well, but that's not the main point here. This has a special story and I think I posted about it last year or so. It was on sale at Lidl and had it in my hand, thought about buying it and didn't. Then went back for it the next day as I could not leave it there. Imagine, this was the last copy and lucky me, I was able to find it the next day.
These two were on sale earlier this year, so I took advantage as the good thing is, none of them is dated, you can use them anytime you want as you're not tied to a specific year.
This was bought for a specific project, that I'm going to post about, if it's ready. I wanted ecru paper, to look vintage, this fits the criteria well and the cover is matching the paper too, but it wasn't cheap.
This is a special one, unique as well as I'm the only one owning a copy. It was made by me as I could not find a vellum notebook of this size, so I took approximately 100 pages of A4 paper, went to the copy shop and told the guy to make me a notebook, so here it is 馃槅
These are my drawing books, I'm using them for practice, or rather learning drawing as I have no talent, so I need to learn everything.
This is what I do when I'm trying to disconnect my brain 馃ぃ
... aaaand more notebooks, very good quality, but I guess you got the idea by now.
I'm not going to post the ones with personal noted, but I think there are like four.
Now you understand why I didn't want to post about my collection, of why I have been postponing it. Trying to think back of the entries and I think 
If you're still here and reading, you're an idiot 馃ぃ Ok, I mean no offense or disrespect, this is a joke, but I'll end this post here as it's already a novel.
Yeah, I told you i'm addicted, but no worries as these will be used soon and what's more important, I'm officially banned from buying any notebooks. I have banned myself!
