Day 3

I can't believe it's already Day 3. Well today I got to doodle on the cover, so now it looks nothing like it did, well, before.

Instructions: DOODLE OVER TOP OF:
1. The cover.
2. The title page.
3. The instructions.
4. The copyright page.
-Fold down the corners of your favorite pages.

I used black sharpie, crayons, and blue nail polish to do my artistic doodling on the cover. It actually turned out pretty good. As for folding down the corners of my favorite pages, I'm not going to tell you. You're just going to have to continue reading each day until I randomly open up to a folded page (which I will try my best not to do- it being folded down and all...).

Cover Page



If anyone out there is actually reading this, well you're probably wondering what this book looks like. Well here it is:

Day 2

Instructions of Day 2: TOUNGE PAINTING
1. EAT SOME COLORFUL CANDY.
2. LICK THIS PAGE.

This truly did not work at all. When you eat colorful candy to make your tounge turn a different color, it doesn't even leave a colorful mark when you like the page. And I tried A LOT. My neighbor ate a red lollipop and I ate two orange life savers, but it STILL DID NOT WORK!!!! I'm pretty frustrated by it. But what can I do about it?

A special thanks to my neighbor and best friend out of School- Maddie :)

Day 1

The first thing I technically completed (or is going to complete) is page numbers. It's the first challenge and instead of flipping page by page, I'm going to do it according to the order of the instructions I complete.

Page 1: SCRIBBLE WILDLY ONLY USING BORROWED PENS (document where they were borrowed from)

Location of Completion: Ghiradelli's

It was surprisingly fun to go around asking for pens only to have to scribble on a page. But, we were only able to get 3 pens, because now a days no one feels the need to carry them around. Thankfully, Mrs. Schaefer suppllied us with 5. Others we recieved them from were a Ghiradelli's worker and some people that were clearly tourists, because they carried around Chicago pens and claimed they were their favorite.

And I would like to give a special thanks to Lucy, Marisa, and Claire for helping fill the page with scribbles and asking people if we could borrow a pen. :)

My Plan

Once a day, I'm going to fullfill one of the instructions in Wreck This Journal. I have no idea how long it will take to complete every page in the book, but I'm ready to start the adventure of doing so. After I do the instructions of the day, I will try to immediately post what I did and what the outcome was. I'm also not going to work through the book in order. I'm going to randomly flip to a page and see what it tells me to do.
