Have you made the switch from bullet journalling to google calendar and miss the amount of customisation and "vibe" matching you could do in a bullet journal?

Well - there's a new fix for that! Using Coolors.co you can create a new aesthetic, or copy one you already have an use those colours for all your calendar needs. It's so much prettier opening Google Calendar Now!

My Current Hex Codes (pictured in the Thumbnail):
~Morning by the Sea~
#f9fbf2 - for time blocking & todoist tasks (pale lime)
#d7f9ff - for classes (think... robyn's egg blue)
#adcbff - for the standard calendar (a light periwinkle)
#0e1c36 - for deadlines (deep navy - so not bright but it definitely stands out against all the pale colours)

Buy me a coffee at ko-fi.com/emmabmd
Just trying out a new feature - by no means is this meant to pressure anyone, I'm just a med student who spends way too much on coffee!

What I'm Grateful For
Well I'm currently on placement in Rural NSW and feeling very reflective. It's made me so grateful to grow up where I did, and feel at home here.... but simultaneously grateful for all that Sydney has to offer!

  • I've been using Google Calendars for years, and all of a sudden I can't seem to change the event default color. Every time I change it to the color I want, it changes back to red the next time I add an event. Help!!!!
