Just wondering.


I used to use pencil in high school, but now I use pen. It just feels weird writing in a grey that can easily smudge. =\

PEN. You don't have to let go, and somehow writing in pen just seems professional. rofl1.gif

I usually use pen, it makes me feel all grown up and legit. However, I had an econ teacher that was horrible with writing things on the board and would always make changes and erase things I had to use pencil so I could still erase.

I'm a bit of a stickler on neat notes. I'm one of those people who throw away 4 pieces of binder paper when unsatisfied with the title.

Pen, because pencil smudges and gets really gross and whatnot. Plus when I decorate my notes with highlighters, that smudges the pencil as well. Pen FTW!

I use pens, except for when I'm taking notes for math. I just hate using pencils for notes. It irritates me for some reason. shrug.gif

Pen.

But speaking of pencils. For some reason, I just can't stick with mechanical ones. Everytime I write with one, it feels like it can break any second.

my last resort would be a pen that's not 5 ):

I get pissed off when people ask me for 0.7 lead. It's just an unreasonable question. Do I LOOK like a 0.7 lead user to you?!

I hate pencils. The only time I ever use pencils is when the test is scantron and a pencil's required.

Even when I was in calc, I'd do my test in pen. And since I screwed up a lot, there were a lot of scribbles and arrows pointing to the back of the paper, lol.
