Hit 500 pages in my bullet journal today and it made me rethink everything

That stack of filled notebooks sitting on my shelf is heavier than I expected, and I never realized how much small daily logging actually adds up until I counted them all - has anyone else been surprised by their total page count after a few years?

My first bullet journal hit 487 pages before the spine cracked and I started a new one.

That many pages is impressive, anna491. I bet you could reinforce the spine next time with some bookbinding tape before it gets that thick. A lot of people don't think about how the glue and stitching hold up over time. I've seen folks use two thin notebooks instead of one fat one to avoid the cracking issue altogether. Your 487 pages just shows you really committed to the system though.

Saw a bookbinder say tape works way better than glue for thick journals.
