Beginning to Smile

, , , ...

If you don’t have a place in the working world, and no immediate family to support you emotionally, I suggest that the thing to do is to muster a smile as often as possible. Thai people have the reputation for happiness because they put on a smile at nearly every opportunity of meeting people.

Pen Fanatic’s Confessions

, , , ...

The idea of fixedly collecting tools rather than building a skill sounds questionable. I consider the expression of, “putting the cart before the horse.” My collecting of pens led me to realize that the ancient way of writing with a steel point is the best way for me to write.

Frosty ballpen by Caran D’ache

, , ,

Why would anyone use a ballpen given a better than average selection of excellent fountain pens? To start, sometimes a fountain pen will run out of ink. Secondly a fountain pen does not so well sign those slippery debit card bills that I get from my favorite coffee shop. Another reason involves someone at school who may require a pen to borrow, in which case a ballpen is in order. A ballpen does not get easily wrecked, and the price of a good one like my Caran Dache frosty ballpen, after postage together with a silky, smooth, softroll refill will challenge that of a Noodler’s resin fountain pen at about sixteen dollars U.S.

Meisterstuck Writing

, ,

The display window of the pen shop had a lot to do with my buying a Boheme pen.  After much online shopping I settled on one with the red gem and then proceeded to write with it.

I felt crazed by the white star then. The tiny icon of the famous, European mountain found places in my dreams and in much of my waking thoughts. From the Boheme pen, I knew of the superlative performance of the 14k nib and feed from Germany.

After spending some time on Fountain Pen website, I discovered the disdain in their posts that true pen devotees had for the Boheme pen. The Meisterstuck fountain pen only suited a real guy.

I convinced a friend to buy an exorbitantly priced, mechanical wristwatch for the attached benefit of getting me a rare discount on a Meisterstuck. Now that I have the Meisterstuck pen, I don’t want another. That one satisfied me in a way that a grail pen coud do as they say at the Fountain pen site. Now I feel mainly concerned with keeping a sharp eye on the Meisterstuck since it goes in my cyber pak of writing supplies for my use in the coffee shop. Since the time of my purchase, the price of the Meisterstuck pen went up into the ceiling along with the price of gold.

My writing increased exponentially though my words don’t deserve publishing. I heard in writing class that every writer wants to live an experience more than once, and that is what I do with my Meisterstuck pen.

Using Old Ink

,

I made an order of several bottles of sepia colored ink before my ink pen’s manufacturer stopped producing it. I happily wrote with sepia ink over a year, and then my local and independent, luxury pen store made a post on the Internet indicating that fountain pen ink has no shelf life after a year.

Ultra Light Computer to Pen and Paper

, , , ...

I had to have a netbook before they were known by that term. So I coerced my dad to give $1300 for me to get an ultra light computer. The ultra light motivated my roommate with whom I shared the machine to write popular emails before the blog phenomenon that has me putting my thoughts out willy nilly on the Internet, adding to its cacophony. We traveled all over the world with the ultra light, writing and touring in a relaxed way.

Urban Way Station

, , , ...

Usually, when traversing the city on foot, I am in need of a place in which to eat, to take water, and to use the restroom. If I may take a break and complete some writing, that is an added bonus. I will also take some caffeine, check the Internet, and then get on my way and continue my urban trek. My favorite such waypoint on my walk is now the Porchlight Coffee shop where I may accomplish all of those goals.

I appreciate the benefits of simulated applause and strong graphics that the Wii game provides. As I swung at the ball and adjusted my playing, the computer opponent returned the balls at levels suitable to my beginning ability.
