      We see many videos out showing aesthetic working /studying/ doing jobs sitting on table for long hours without using gadgets
      But when we start doing it we get distracted too easily and we almost lose focus doing things and tbh that seems too unaesthetic
      Give a guide to work for long hours which will give you professional feeling with productive results...

      I am a high school student moving to college soon, a lot of things are going to change.. I see you as a successful person already, you've control over you and you do what makes you achieve the next level.. like an inspiration but it becomes hard for me to maintain a healthy growth period for long... I seriously need to hear your guide to young people like me... what are the things i always have to take care of in my next chapter of life..? you'd have experienced and dealt with everything since you truly shine now.. please give us a mantra to a better life like yours :) i respect you a lot and your way of delivering things is so realistic.. i hope you'll think over my request.

    You convinced me to get a top spiral notebook in your other video. I went with Rite in the Rain instead of Field note because they were cheaper. I prefer mechanical pencils over pens. Will have to try the Kurutoga. Any other honorable mentions for mechanical pencils?

    As a massive James bond fan I already have the iconic Seamaster so I knew I needed the pen once I saw you mention it. The click is satisfying yes but the true value is the build quality and the fact that it was in a bond film.

      I had a fountain pen phase and maybe had a half dozen of them haha. Lamy, Kaweco, and a few others. Super fun but they would bleed a lot on my journal and I found these to be more practical.
      I also have a blackwing laying around somewhere! Love those. Hadn’t heard of mussgrave before, gonna look into it

    A platinum preppy would smoke literally any pen you've mentioned so far. Then you can choose whatever fast-drying ink you want, in a far larger variety of colors.

      @reysu  4 місяці тому +1

      I had a fountain pen phase! I haven’t tried that one specifically but I think fountain pens are cool and great to write with but it often bleeds on paper, changing ink is kinda tedious and I’ve had a few instances of it leaking if I take it to go :(
