During the first few days of summer, all you probably want to do is sleep in until noon, binge-watch your favorite series, or mindlessly scroll through TikTok to recharge.
But by week two, the boredom starts to hit. You find yourself sighing and asking: What can I actually do this summer that isn’t boring?
At MyNotes, we’ve got the perfect "healing" hobby for you. Let’s dive into some creative summer ideas that are all about relaxation and good vibes!
1. STEP 1: CREATE A "SUMMER BUCKET LIST" FOR THE SOUL
Summer is for healing! Flip to a fresh page in your notebook and start a "Summer Bucket List"-but keep it light. This isn’t a to-do list; it’s a "want-to-do" list.
Ideas for you:
Finish those 3 Netflix movies you started, try baking a new dessert, visit that new aesthetic cafe with your bestie, or simply reorganize your bookshelf to make it look "Pinterest-worthy."
How to do it:
Use soft pastel pens for the title. Add some cute doodles-think fluffy clouds, bubble tea cups, or a peeking sun. No "artistic talent" is needed; messy, hand-drawn vibes are exactly what makes it personal!
2. STEP 2: TURN YOUR JOURNAL INTO A MINI SCRAPBOOK
One of the best ways to relax during summer is to capture the dreamy feelings of being a teen. Instead of a boring, dry habit tracker, turn your pages into a mini Scrapbook.
Movie Tracker:
Draw tiny film reels. Every time you finish a great movie, write the name inside and color it in.
Summer Playlist:
Write down the songs you have on repeat during those rainy summer afternoons.
Pro Tip:
Print out a few small Polaroid-style photos of your hangouts and tape them into the corners. Your journal will instantly become a priceless "museum of memories."
3. STEP 3: THE ULTIMATE ASMR EXPERIENCE WITH WASHI TAPE & STICKERS
Did you know that decorating a journal is actually a form of mental therapy? The sensation of peeling stickers and matching colors releases happy hormones that melt your stress away.
To achieve that "Aesthetic" look, try these:
Washi Tape:
Use decorative tape to border your photos, or tear it unevenly for a trendy, "raw" artistic frame.
Stickers:
Drop in some hologram sparkles or vintage-style stickers. Spending time meticulously placing each sticker and admiring the result is the ultimate moment of "zen."

FINAL THOUGHTS
Summer is a gift to our youth after a long year of hard work. Don't pressure yourself to do something "huge."
Just make a cold drink, turn on your favorite lo-fi playlist, and slowly build your Bullet Journal. It’s the perfect way to reset.
Have a joyful, "healing" summer, and don't forget to keep an eye out for our secret upcoming launch!
