Blue Pens

Its so frustrating buying BLUE PENS here in Perth! ARGHHHH.


Ok so you're saying 'its just a pen for goodness sake who cares what pen' but I tell you right now I am fussy. and the pens here suck. More than a vacuum cleaner

I think Ive used that vacuum cleaner comparison before. Meh.

Either they pens are too thick which is pretty much ALL pens. I dislike it so much! I went to Officeworks that superduper stationary store and in its ENTIRE mega long ailse (i think I spelt this wrong) not one every single gawd damn pen was 1mm or thicker! Like fat!

I was like busting to go home and umm... relieve my bladder so I thought I'ld hurriedly pop down after school to stock up my pathetic pen collection but it took me so long to find a suitable pen cos I had been living with a mega fat 1.5mm pen the past 2 weeks and I nearly gone mad.

Ok so I was like going up and down the pen ailse trying not to look stupid just cos of my full bladder giving me a hard time. ... thank goodness I was the only one *shifty eyes*

Yeah that pencil comment on the bottom right is my teachers thoughts concerning my writing.. =_=

I have tiny petite compact typical-chinese-girl handwriting and 0.7-1mm tipped pens just don't cut the standard! See, any pen I buy for mass writing purposes MUST MUST be...

• Have 0.4-0.5mm thin tips
  
• Gel ink - NOT BALLPOINT /BIRO STYLE!

And if I havent got my POINT drilled in yet... SHARP TIPS are of mega importance. I detest blunt tipped things. blunt!
How the cow does anyone write using 1mm thick biro pens?! Its like you might as well use those chunky pavement chalk to do your work. That or you have massive huge-ass writing.

Nope its just not on. I officially have a thing against thick pens. Give me a thick pen and I will poke you with it. Same goes for mechanical pencils. I don't tolerate thick pencil leads. Only 0.5mm and below or else I dont write.

I have a $10 pink mechanical pencil with shaker function and some whizzy physics-based gravitational balance feature which I must say, fake or real, I could immmediately feel the difference and no way will I ever revert to a normal mechanical pencil. Call me pampered, I spend up to 3x more on such stationary just cos I like nimble stuff. =D


This was the Pental 0.5mm gel ink pen that Officeworks sold some time ago and it was the ONLY one I wrote with for over a year. As you can see its run out. I had like 6 and I seriously don't know where they all went to after just 1 term of school. =//

Whe I went back today IT WAS NO LONGER STOCKED! NO LONGER STOCKED! How can they do this to me?!

So I settled for this lor. =( its 'NEW' so hopefully its got some whizzy features in it? *grins*

Yeah its 0.45mm which isnt too bad, infact its better but after I tested the pens at home they seemed to write like a 0.7mm pen *pouts*
Nevermind, its not too bad.

Criteria #1 met.

Second criteria - GELL INK
No!!!!! Its crappy-ass ball point! Look, my bladder was being idiot so I just saw 0.45mm and grabbed the thing and went off to pay freakin $9 for THREE pens *faints*

I realised pens in Perth are so expensive. Except for those mass-produced kilometrico biro pens which are cheap as. Couple expensive pens with my liking for thin nibs and gel ink and Im seriously spending alot of my paycheck on quality stuff. =//

Oh well, ball point.. I'll try live with it. *struggles*

I so demand that Pental bring back my favourite pens! GRRR. Or maybe I should start shopping at Morning Glory, that little Jap shop in the city which has the uber skinny Gelly Roll Fine pens from Japan. The only thing putting me off is that their pens cost like $5 a piece when in Singapore they only $1.80 each *screws up nose in annoyance*

Bah.
Its almost 12am and I have a gay maths test in the morning, then Housley stupid gay Road Safety seminar after school. These new pens of mine better compensate me by giving me some good luck, considering I paid $9 for a three pack GAWD.

Maybe if I aimed one at Housley, it upset him and he quit this school then I wouldnt mind forking out $90 for them three pens *shrugs*

Ok I was joking. But I still don't like Housley. FULL STOP.

Nites :D
