今天入手的Moleskine 2009 diary Hard Cover 400 pages 

为了记录即将来临的2009年，也为了默默告诉自己，再悲观主义的人也该有内在的热情

我希望2009年是一个灵感迸发，广结益友并阳光灿烂的一年

我也要学会在观察一种文化的同时，融入其中的技能

以及更好的自制力，感悟力。

当然，我也期待红色能带给我一段期待而又不能太多期待的relationship。

也许有人问，为什么需要这么贵的一本本子呢？

看你如何看待这本本子的价值了。

以文字为信仰，以书写为乐趣，记日记十几年的我，每年年末都会选一本日记本，做为来年的问路石。

虽然现在blog这么普及，可我相信内心的秘密需要一个贴心的管家

今年就交给Moleskine好了。

Moleskine is the heir of the legendary notebook used for the past two centuries by great artists and thinkers, including Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, and Bruce Chatwin. 

This trusty, pocket-sized travel companion held their sketches, notes, stories, and ideas before they became famous images or beloved books. The little black notebook, with its typical rounded corners, elastic closure, and expandable inner pocket, was originally a nameless object. It was produced by a small French bookbinder, that supplied Parisian stationery shops frequented by the international literary and artistic avant-garde for more than a century. 
In the mid-1980s, however, it no longer became available. In his book “Songlines”, Bruce Chatwin tells us the whole story of his favourite notebook, which he nicknamed “Moleskine”. In 1986, the original manufacturer – a family operating in Tours – closed down forever: “Le vrai moleskine n’est plus” are the lapidary words he puts into the mouth of the owner of the stationery shop in Rue de l’Ancienne Comédie – also a legendary spot – where Chatwin stocked up on the notebooks. The English writer-traveller bought up all the “Moleskines” that he could fi nd, but they were not enough. 

In 1998, a small Milanese publisher brought the legendary notebook back to life under the name “Moleskine”, thus restoring a solid tradition, renewing notebookism, and sensing that mobile technologies needed to be accompanied by essential self-standing analog tools. As the reverent keeper of an extraordinary tradition, the legendary notebook once again began travelling the globe. Capturing reality on the move, preserving details, impressing the unique aspects of experience upon paper: Moleskine is a reservoir of ideas and feelings, a battery that stores discoveries and perceptions without depletion. With its various page styles, it accompanies the creative professions and has become an international symbol of contemporary nomadism. With this physical object, the art of taking notes has found new realms on the web and its communities. 

Today, Moleskine® is culture, travel, memory, imagination, and personal identity, both analog and digital. It is a brand identifying a family of notebooks, journals, planners, and guidebooks, with different functions, complying with a free mindstyle, both basic and emotional, and connected with the digital world through a huge network of websites, blogs, groups, virtual archives in the Internet. 

The adventure of Moleskine continues to widen, and its still-blank pages will tell the rest.
