Oct 1-15 'FUN' Journaling Prompts

October 1 is … World Vegetarian Day and Magic Circles Day
World Vegetarian Day is not actually a national day but there are a lot of vegetarians in the US so I believe this is appropriate for us. Are you a vegetarian? Do vegetarians frustrate you? Write about being a vegetarian or knowing a vegetarian.

October 2 is … Name Your Car Day
An interesting day this could be. Boats have names so why not cars. What would you name your car? Write about the name you would give your car and why.

October 3 is … Virus Appreciation Day
Is there anything about a virus that can be appreciated? Write about a virus that would be worthy of appreciation.

October 4 is … National Golf Day
Golf has many qualities. There is strategy, exercise and relationship building when one plays golf. Write about one aspect of golf that you admire.

October 5 is … National Storytelling Festival
Storytelling is what we all are doing when we write in our journals. Consider today what your journal will tell others 100 years from now about who you were. Write about what you want others to know and remember about you.

October 6 is … German-American Day and Come and Take It Day
Are you German-American? Then you can write about the differences between Germany and America. Otherwise write about something you have had to endure.

October 7 is … National Frappe Day
This is a national day that many enjoy most days! You can even visit McDonald’s and have their McCafe Frappe! Write about the frappe and what makes it so desirable.

October 8 is … American Tag Day
I could take this day in many different ways. I could wear a new shirt with the tag left on, but I do not believe that is what this was intended. I could tag everything in my closet, but I do not believe this is correct either. Write about what you believe American Tag Day is or should be.

October 9 is … Moldy Cheese Day
Moldy Cheese does not sound very appetizing. Why would we have a moldy cheese day? I know cheese is actually mold. Journal today about cheese and the kind of cheese you like.

October 10 is … National Angel Food Cake Day
This is a great day to combine cake and fruit. Angel food cake is like and delicious with all types of fruit on top. What fruit would you add to your piece of cake today?

October 11 is … It's My Party Day
This must have been created in the 60's since the 60's is known as the ‘me’ generation. When I read this phrase I feel lonely. We believe that having it ‘our’ way is fulfilling when in fact it is the loneliest. Journal about a party you had. Was it a party for you or did you plan the party?

October 12 is … International Moment Of Frustration Scream Day
I like this day. This is how my week has gone so I really needed this day in September! There are so many little things that frustrate each of us. Journal about a frustration that caused you to scream.

October 13 is … National Peanut Festival
Peanuts are so good. I like raw, roasted and boiled peanuts but not so much peanut butter. Write about peanuts and the different ways you can eat them.

October 14 is … Be Bald and Free Day and National Dessert Day
Bold and desserts do not seem to go together. Maybe you need to be bold to eat desserts but I do not think so. So today you have a choice. Journal about something bold you did or your favorite dessert.

October 15 is … White Cane Safety Day
This day was set aside to celebrate the achievements of the blind or visually impaired. Do you know someone blind or visually impaired? Journal today about what you would miss about not being able to see.
