I wuvvv stationery
August 8th, 2008
I really get excited when it comes to stationery, I’ve got two pen holders at work filled with all the colours of the rainbow, in different thickness and types (rollerball, felt, fountain, ballpoint). My favourite is 0.7 rollerball for scribbles and a 0.5 for work. 2B lead mechanicals, and I hate using the rubbers on the pencil unless it’s an emergency. Correction tape as opposed to liquid (tipex), Glu stick instead of glue gum.
Anyway, my favourite client gave us a cutter & buck pen yesterday morning. Unscrew the cap and it reveals a 1GB USB stick. Neat.
Am such a nerd.
you’re just trying to make me jealous!!
haha, nice one!
Janice: HAAHHAhaAhaHHa eh you know the pen we got at the airshow? the words on mine are all gone…comes off quite easily. So this came at a good time.
Don’t blame the Boeing pen if you have sweaty hands!! ;p Remind me to pass you one of the pencils one of these days…
RF: 2B?
It’s a mechanical pencil…With the lead button on the side. Think it’s 0.5.
Fancy Schmancy! I like…
Hahaha you ARE a stationary geek woman…
stationery makes me happy…. If i’m ever feeling down, i go to the stationery shop to buy a pen. Makes me feel a whole lot better.
That is retail theraphy for me……
Hey it’s alot cheaper than a handbag!!
Heres a picture… i wasn’t lying.. that’s my pen holder at work
You guys are too funny! All thanks to the Boeing pen from the airshow otherwise I’ll still be using my Airbus pen. Always have to remind myself, NOT to take it to meetings!!
just curious, were you doing an ad for singapore airlines? the girl on the website looks a lot like you!
Jeanette: yes .. we know someone who commented on this post who nearly did the same thing. Airbus pen to a Boeing meeting. HAhahaha…
Ros: destination video? yeah that was me…
it’s actually like a poster girl picture on the main website. Thought they only use cabin crew.
poster girl on the main website?? then its not me….. ahhaha
but it really does look like you. you should take a look.
How the heck did you guys get Airbus pens? Hmmmmmm….
And yes….Angela you have tooooooo many pens!!!!! Think of all the poop pen deprived people in Eithopia (or some place)…
RF: I think it was during asian aerospace, JB got them some. It writes well i’m sorry to tell you.
about the pens: Actually… I was approached by a certain pen company, and one of the initiatives i proposed was a stationery collection. We are always given too many free pens at fairs and what not. Wanted people to donate their pens, and we’d send them to schools in countries that need them. But it didn’t take off… although i would love to revisit that idea… Will i get your support?
omg, we have the same thinking when it comes to stationery. i love love love being in stationery stores and would normally take forever looking at all the cool stuff. and i can’t agree more with you on the erasers of mechanical pencils. hate it when someone who’ve borrowed my pencils and end up using the eraser as well! i would just take it out and shift it the other way round and voila, it seems unused again! haha. good entry!
A: YAY!!! I”M NOT ALONE!!!!!! and i do the same with the eraser on the mechanical pencil!!! that’s so funny….. we should form a support group.HAHahhaa
totally! =)
Lol, a stationery fanatic kaki! I’m the same with the eraser on the pencil, about using 0.7 for scribbling & 0.5 for work & absolutely nothing but 2B for my mechanical pencils..
But your pen holders still win over mine though =p
cass: yay! another one for the support group!
Hahaha yes you have my support for the stationary donation idea…Think we should start with your collection though ;p
Oh I am stationery lover too and have so many colourful pens. Can never have enough
Give me more…..
RF: can…… just means i can buy myself more pens!!!!!
Joann: and looks like we have another one… support group!!
Boeing has the best corporate stationery don’t they… I still have my black stealth pen from back then. *sobsniff* /Hugs pens
Jem: they do……….most of the time….. hahahhaha… although i must admit, that airbus pen janice has (AND IS STILL using!! coz i saw her with it on wednesday) writes pretty fabulously.
