A5 Finsbury Set Up!

Hello there lovelies!
Today I thought I'd introduce you to my A5 Finsbury Filofax in Electric Blue! (although to me it looks purple.)  My finsbury is my main planner where I plan out my weeks.  I keep it synced with my personal, which I take places with me.  My A5 stays on my desk.


She's quite the beauty isn't she? Sorry in advance for the horrible lighting.  My dad got her for me for my birthday this year!  So, without further ado...



I don't keep much in the pockets as you can see except for a couple post its and some appointment cards.  My dashboard changes a lot but I saw this picture on my tumblr and thought it was appropriate for the summer. 






I make all of my dividers from scrapbook paper that I laminate.  The current dividers I have are Calendar, Reflection, School, Lists, Health and Fitness, and Finances.  I'll go through each for you guys.

The first is my Calendar section.  I just have the current month here, which I decorated a little with some washi tape and stickers I got at Michael's.  I keep the up coming months in here too.  I like to have them all together.  I think I got these inserts off of Etsy?  They're just blank monthly calendar pages.

In the Note section on the right I keep my monthly to do's.  You can see I don't have too many right now but during school it gets pretty long.  I also keep binder clips on the pages to help flip through to my weekly section quicker.


This is my weekly section.  On the left I have my week on one page set up.  I also put my weekly to do's in the task bar.  I like to put work outs on page flags so I can move them around the week if I get lazy.  I made this insert on microsoft word.  In between these two pages I have a flyleaf with a tab to mark today at the top.  I have a post it on there with a running shopping list I move throughout the weeks.

On the right I keep my Weekly Chart.  I have things I have to do weekly on here.   It's different from my weekly to do's because it's just simple things like taking my medicine that I have to do every week.  My weekly tasks are things I'd like to do but I don't have to.  I made this insert myself also based off of the DIYfish inserts since I'm a broke college student.




The next section is my Reflection Divider.  In here I just have my current Nightly, Sunday night, and Monthly review pages on grid paper.  They're in pencil because I change these sometimes.  Every Sunday night I sit down with a cup of tea and review my week.







My next divider is my School divider.  I don't currently have anything in here because I'm not in school, but normally I keep a copy of my school schedule, my professor's information, paper for my homework, and a compiled list of all of my assignments and when they're due.


The next couple of sections have personal information in here so I won't show you them but I'll go through them generally. 

In my List divider I just have things like my bucketlist, things I want, books I've read, things like that.
My blog post list is also in here, which I won't show you for obvious reasons.


In my health and fitness section, I keep track of my weight, the medicines I'm on, my doctor's contact information, and a running log where I track how many miles I ran and my times.


My last section is my Finance section.  In here I just keep a list of how much money I spend, and various school-related expenses.  


So there you have it! My A5 planner.  Thanks for reading. xoxo
