Hi Tumblr! I made this post in reply to an anon’s question in my ask box.I use a total of eight pens for my classes and daily study sessions. I’ve stuck to the same brands since I was in high school, but if you have any suggestions, hit me up! I’d love to try new ones!Stabilo Swing Cool Pink HighlighterI use it for textbooks with white paperThe ink lasts for an entire school year (it depends on how much you highlight and how often you use it of course)It doesn’t leave a mark at the back of thick and smooth paperIt could leave a mark at the back of thin paperDong-A Red Fine Tech 0.5 mmI use it for the headings of my notesWrites better on smooth paper (not the smooth glossy one!)Sharpie Smear Guard Yellow HighlighterI use it for newsprint textbooksThe way the color looks on the paper keeps me awake but it doesn’t hurt my eyesIt doesn’t have that distinct Sharpie marker smell!Dong-A Black My-Gel XP 0.5 mmI use it as an alternative for my BIC pen when it runs out of inkGreat for everyday writingBIC Black Super EZ Smooth Ink 0.7 mmI use it for everyday writing (I carry three of them in my pencil case)It doesn’t lose ink even if I write for a long timeIt almost looks like you’ve been writing with a fine tech, not a ballpoint penBasically, it’s my favorite penSmudges when used on smooth paperDong-A Blue Fine Tech 0.5 mmI use it to emphasize important terms or phrases in my notesWrites better on smooth paper (not the smooth glossy one!)Unipin 0.3 mm Fine Line Water and Fade Proof Black Pigment InkI use it to outline the diagrams, tables and drawings in my notesSometimes used with the 0.1 mm and 0.8 mm ones (for artsy reasons)Dong-A Black Fine Tech 0.5 mmI use it for writing in my planner because it writes smoothly on the paper (the page from my planner as seen on the picture dates back to October 2014 because it’s the only page that looks really neat) -- source link
