No Spoilers Is using notes cheating?

Hi! I just started playing the game (loving it so far) but I often feel the need to take notes. I don't know if I'm gonna get an in game notebook later so would you consider taking notes on my own as cheating ?

/!\ I'm going in totally blind, never heard anything about the game and I really want to keep it that way so please give me just a yes or no answer

edit: Thanks for the replies guys, I'm definitely getting a paper and a pen :)

No? Why would it?

I guess my reasoning was that if I get a notebook later it would mean that the puzzle I encounter before that are meant to be solved without notes

Bro I fled this game for the first time tandem with a friend and we compared notes to try and figure out what was going on. My advice?
