Capture the Now with Our Currently List Challenge
1 PM Challenge - International Scrapbook Day 🎨
As we move deeper into International Scrapbook Day, let’s pause and reflect on the present with our 2:00 PM challenge. It's all about capturing the 'now' with our Currently List journaling challenge.
Challenge #3: Create a "Currently List" Page
This seven-prompt challenge helps you document the simple yet significant aspects of your daily life. What are you watching, reading, listening to, and loving right now? Let's put those details down on paper. I’m sharing a page that features 12 squares detailing the TV shows I’m currently watching — a visual feast of my current favorites!

Why This Matters
The Currently List is a journaling exercise that shares a snapshot of your life at this moment. It makes journaling approachable and fun, and sets a foundation for regular storytelling. This simple routine can enhance your memory keeping, making it easy to look back and see what captivated your interest at different times.
Journaling about your current experiences can have profound psychological benefits. It helps in organizing thoughts, managing stress, and enhancing self-awareness by capturing your emotions and activities. Integrating these lists into your scrapbooks not only adds a dynamic and personal touch but also serves as a timestamp of your evolving tastes and moods.
How to Participate
Reflect: Think about what currently fills your days and brings you joy or intrigue.
Design: Layout your responses using a creative format that suits your style. Perhaps try the 12-square format I used or come up with your own unique design.
Share: Upload your "Currently List" pages to our Substack chat or on the ALP app. I'm eager to see the variety of ways we all capture our present moments.
The Currently List is a perfect way to ease into journaling and ensure your scrapbooks are filled with personal, timely content. Dive into this challenge and let’s document today together!
