Note taking (alien.top)

I looking to migrate to emacs (running under WSL) for note taking. Currently I am using notepad++ as it lets me have multiple scratch buffers that will persist. That is I wanting buffers that I don't have to name or explicitly save that will still be there if emacs (or computer itself) are restarted.

The scratch buffer in Emacs disappears after shutdown, but there is a package to fix this issue.
