Re: Felt Tip Pins etc?

I use about 10 different coloured pens when writing notes, usually fine point because it keeps my writing much neater. For exams, I use a very fat pointed pen as it just glides straight across the page.

I preffer the look of blue but i always seem to loose them and end up writing with black. my favourite pens are my .38 mm ballpoints from japan which are almost dry thanks to the trials.

i prefer the kilometrico pens. lol, i turned up to each of my trial exams with the same blue kilometrico pen for each test. obviously i brought a calculator as well, and some other stuff for maths, but in terms of pens, i only had 1. :)

the pen served me pretty well.

Im surprised so many people write in blue, markers have always told me that black pen is much easier on the eyes.

As for my favourite pen, easily the pilot hi-tecpoint (V5 grip). Just buy one and you'll see why ;)

the paper kilometrico pens are nothing compared to the BIC ultra round stic grip, and the price is around the same
the bic ultra round stic grip flows really nicely and never jams up like the kilometrico ones, it is also faster and doesnot smudge or get marks on your hand

I find the kilometrico far easier to write with for long periods of time that pens with gel grips and features designed to make you be able to write longer.

my hand cramps when i use thin pens...thats why ive had to chuck all of my kilometrico in the bin.

i'm still in search for the perfect pen. i think the officeworks staff are starting to get sick of me.

seriously, use a good felt tip. u apply like zero pressure. i have permanent callouses from kilometricos and bics, but not from felt tips.
yes! ive got so many callouses on my right hand.
has anyone started to get these really abnormal looking lumps at the top side of their middle finger? after the trials it was dented in...couldnt feel anything in that finger for a week.

Does it last long though? I think I will buy those ones~

EDIT: 4000th post.
Yeah, they last for ages. I bought a packet of 8 at the beginning of the school year, and so far I've only used three. Well four now, since one ran out today.
