i'm obsessed with buying all sorts of stationary. i'm very contented to lug home gift wrappers, notebooks, mechanical pencils, erasers, files, organisers, paper clips, letter pads,lil knick knacks and STICKERS (do you still have your sticker book?we can do trading! hahaha) from abroad/ local shopping trips. i can spend damn long browsing the stationary section in bookshops, and i never feel guilty about splurging on "sth-i might-use-in-future". and when you look back at them, it brings back memories like which country did i get it from, who was i with, or even who helped me to decide on it!! hurhur
some people might frown upon spending on unnecessary stationaries, like those with one mechanical pencil , one pencil case to last you a donkey years. but to me there's never enough and almost no amount is too much, as long as i like it :)
though school's about to start, i've yet to find a pencil case! but at least i've stocked up on my files, organisers, notebooks, water bottles still good, clothes never enough, shoes done for now, bags never enough, jackets not yet ( i need more!) i feel so primary school, new year must have new stuff.. heh..perhaps just an excuse for me to shop!
btw woodwould's my all time fave stationary shop! done with that today,waiting for new stocks. muji, borders done. shit, i forgot about prints/bookbinders. did i miss out anything else?
