Let me tell you about this pen that i have. it's a uniball signo dx. nothing to 'wah' about. it's not parker pen. bleahh. yeah. simple and nice. 0.38 fine tip pen. i loveee it alot.haha..cos it makes my writing neater and it feels smooth to write on..and the colour is just right. blue-black. design wise..yeah..not too disgusting. passable. =D it's not inky like the pilot G2 nor is it too fine. jussttt right. love it ((:
after the ink finished, i was deciding over a refill or a new one. oh wells, being the environmental friendly girl as i always am (ahah) i bought the refill. this time it was blue. the lighter shade. uh huh. happy and excited, i threw away the old one, slotted in the new refill and started using it.. it was working for a couple of days.. and then it started to feel like the pen is constipated. you know..the ink sorta wanna come out but cannot come out. yeah..that kind of feeling. one fine day, IT JUST CANT WORK. haha. totally no ink at all..i tried to scribble all over my paper, trying to make the ink appear..i tried using the fire stove to heat it (sorry mum, i know gas price is increasing these days. but i cant find the lighter. sorry!! :P ) tried and tried. i thought i would wait for afew days (let it rest, and maybe after that the ink would miraculously appear. haha).
of course, to my disappointment, it din work. nothing worked.
so..i kinda suspect that the refills are of lower quality than the new pens (that!...is just a speculation) BUT! after so much disappointment, i've finally decided to throw the pen away. along the way, i contemplated because it's soo new..heartache man..wasted my money to buy the refill and wasted my time to buy it. it's useless now and taking up space in my pencil box. looking at it just reminds me of the time and money i have wasted altho just a mere $1.15 (if i din remember wrongly). maybe i can go buy nicer coloured ones. like a purple one or a brown one or a green one.. maybe i shall switch brand altogether? oh wells. see how k. so off the pen goes and into the bin, byebye. (:
oh wells. so darn lame to blog about a pen and i took a pic of it even! it just struck me when i was reading law. no idea why. just being random as usual okayy! haha. :D
maybe you can think figuratively?
