See... You need the lunch box to put all of the sharpies in...

I have a fascination with the InPlace folder system you can get at Office Max. There are these heavyduty plastic folders in the four different colors of the system bundle they sellf, so I have different colors for each class I am currently taking.

I will go to any office supply store and spend about an hour in the pen & pencils section. I love a quality writing instrument, and carry around 2-3 pens all the time.

My prized office supply item is my baby blue Swingline 747 stapler. I totally understand the weird dude in the movie "Office Space" when he gets protective of his stapler. I have had mine for over 20 years.

Oh I do love sharpies... fine point sharpies in rainbow colors. Ya I keep mine in wide mouth pint canning jars (another love of mine) on my desk. sigh... I love sharpies.

I love, love, love sharp pencils. My favorite brand...ticonderoga. Oh yah!

Which of course means a quiet pencil sharpener is needed for my daily moment of zen...

And who could resist the Tickles Tapeworm pencil case by Parasite Pals? I gave this as a gift years ago, and regret not getting one for myself:

I can't recall now, but I think this is on the back. Who knew you could write a bio for a tapeworm that reads like a page from Tiger Beat:

Ohhhhhhhhh i love office/school supplies!!!!

My fav store in the whole world is office max. I could shop in there for days. I love pens and notebooks. My fav pens are pentel. The tall ones are so cool. They flow so smoothly.

Another thing i love is calendars and notebooks. I have a really cool notebook i keep my mileage in and it's so pretty and retro huge pink flowers and it's covered in plastic inside and out. I have a bunch of calendars as well, small to large.

I honestly think i would rather shop at Office Max than i would a shoe store. That's HUGE coming from me.

Oh and of course, sharpies. I have tons of them. Love. Love.

I associate sharpies with being drawn on and with students who swipe them in order to tag things. I have more often used them for practical purposes, but these associations are stronger. So I can't say that I love them.

Now, colored pencils, those I love.

I haz serious fountain pen and good paper habit.

Sadly the old school desk and chair had to go...many moons ago and I haven't replaced them.

The College (est. 2003. Our founder Mr.Daktari OBE himself is rather the fountain pen enthusiast and collector) expects all students to use a fountain pen. Girls and boys must be very conscious of their hand-writing during spelling tests and assignments, sloppy work will not be tolerated. A regulation school fountain pen (either a Lamy Nexx or Pelikano dependent upon a number of variables.) will be issued and is expected to be kept in good writing condition. All students must provide their own notebooks. *note to parents: Aurora or Rhodia exercise books please.

Uniform must be worn at all times. Skirt lengths will be checked without warning. Boys caps must be folded carefully and placed in (your own) blazer pocket. Ties must be fastened correctly at all times.

The College will not tolerate bad behaviour from our young ladies and gentlemen and has a strict policy of corporal punishment. In line with current guidelines the student/punishee will be provided with a clean leather strop to bite on during administration. Any noise from the student will result in loss of play-time and sweets/candy privileges. Lesser infractions, ie. sloppy handwriting, will be dealt with immediately by the form tutor with a swift ruler either across the the knuckles or backs of the legs.

NB. Post admonishment Butt Butt'r can be provided and applied by Matron...there will be a small charge for this service.

You did say serious or kinky didn't you?
