@plan.nerdy I got started planning when my friend @kaylilaynec showed me a Personal Aqua Malden, and I fell in love and had to have it. I wanted something to organize all the different things that I do in my life, and now have 4 planners including my Malden that I named Finley to keep my crazy life organized - and BONUS, I have met some of the most awesome people ever. Love your giveaway - thank you so much for sharing! #plannerdy200
