arashi_35Wahooo! Mei is alive and yet again, on a very late late time of the month. I do apologize for the delays but like my previous posts imply, it is busy month for Mei. Mei is now running as a writer, message operator and even a runner X_x Kinda weird for me but its part of the learning curve. Nonetheless, all this business is making me work hard on my backlogs and this blog is no exception. One of these days I will be scheduling all my late entries.

Now! As the title implies, I finally gotten my copy of next year’s Hobonichi Planner. When I first did my review of the planner last year, it continued raking in site hits for me and still works till today. I also did a separate entry for the accessories. This year, I was able to make a combined order for the cover and the planner.
I have gotten another order for the accessories on a separate site (which would be posted for the next post once I get it).

To the review!

I ordered my hobonichi around Saturday and gotten it Thursday as the guys from Hobonichi only ship via EMS. For Philippine buyers, you would have to pay the post for claiming once it arrives. I paid 100 pesos to claim it. You can use debit cards to purchase from the official store and even use your parents cards. It would still be delivered in your name, but the fee would be charged to your parent’s bill.

Each Hobonichi package comes with its very own pouch pack! Last year it was all white :)
The box and a free flyer of the Hobonichi Store. Last year’s box was yellow
On the second flap of the box :)
Ta-da! Mei’s new Hobonichi set!

First off my stash is this cute mt washi tape. I do love it coz it is festive :))
Gotten a new pencil board as well (the upper right hand one). My orange pencil board is overused :))

Here is my new hobonichi cover. Its called Zippers Fog Linen. I have to admit it looks like a big pouch to me so I think this is very multi-functional. I did want to get the Orcival one but I changed my mind the last minute. These zippered ones would look good if you bring your hobonichi out on trips!

As far as the planner is concerned. Not much changed but you will be able to see the following:

Selection game guide
Guide to Ryokans
Spices and Herbs around the globe

I have to admit Hobonichi is still the same but i find it kinda cool that it still catches one’s imagination and dares you to write in it. Hopefully I will be able to keep this hobonichi filled to tbe brim coz right now I have tons of empty ones in my current. But I try my best to fill the pages. Mostly its fun remembering them :))

I will be posting my backlogs when I can!
