Oh joy — school is one of the most beautiful places for learning.

If you recall, the excitement we had in 5th grade about stationery was remarkable.

I vividly remember telling everyone in the house about getting promoted from pencil user to high school girl with a ball pen, gel pen, and all sorts of pens — it was thrilling! I even used to carry black and red pens, even though I never used them.

Fast forward to the present day — no pencils, no pens. Everything is digital. Are we short on buying stationery or do we choose to replace it with nothing but a phone? The convenience of digital tools has certainly changed our habits, but there’s something irreplaceable about the tactile joy of writing with a pen or pencil on paper.

Try buying a pen/ pencil, and a small notebook — everything becomes easy and you will feel happy.
