I've always thought that a notebook is a tangible record of my childhood memories. My notebook is my diary, my sketch pad, my lesson notes, my creative notes and many more. It is a big part of who I was, who I am and who I will be. My notebook was my escape when I got bored in class and decided to doodle shapes instead. My notebook was the only one I could turn to about the things I couldn't say out loud and the worries I keep inside of me. My notebook has been a reminder of the things I want to do and I want to achieve in the future. 

It is a little treasure that other people take for granted. When I want to reminisce my past, I just open my notebook and it takes me back in time. It has been a significant part of me that I wish it brings the same importance to other people as well. So, today, I’ve decided to give my sister’s bestfriend a notebook. Something that she could turn to when things become too much to handle.

If I have a lot of money, I will donate lots of notebooks to those students who can't afford them. Who knows? That notebook might be able to comfort them and make things easier for them. Oftentimes, the little things in life are the ones that matter. 

What does your notebook mean to you?
