Hi, I’m responding to this mini contest by Mariel not to win a Sharpie — because I want ALL OF THEM and Mariel only gives away one per person and it looks like I’ve already missed the cut anyway. I’m responding because I want to get her attention so she can answer my question: where did you buy all those Sharpies? :)
I looked around Office Warehouse and National Bookstore and did not find any. :-s

Anyway, to answer Mariel’s question, mine is post its. These are my most favorite office supplies, tied with Pilot G-techs. I’d die without these two. I used to fill my journal with post its, which is stupid, I know, I mean, why would you paste post-its on your journal when you can write directly on its pages anyway, right? I guess I really just like putting colors together. I’d collect them, enough to last me a lifetime, just because I like looking at them stacked up on my desk or arranged into a collage in my notebook.
I think I’ve gotten over that phase already, so now, I just mostly like how I can use them for practically anything! Grocery lists, to-do lists, love notes, gift tags, reminders, quotable quotes, recipes, bookmarks, etc. They’re something I’d like to have in my pocket or in my purse everywhere I go, I mean, you’ll never know when you’ll need something to get married with, right? (Yes, I still haven’t recovered from Meredith and Derek’s post-it wedding, deal with it.) Also, I think post its are really photogenic. :)
On a different note, this is my third post in, more or less, 24 hours. I wonder if I’m ready for a 30-day blog challenge too, like her. *thinks really hard*
Hi Riz! I do the same thing – paste post its on my journal! Ang cute tignan eh. Haha! Plus, that way, they kinda look like a lively (lol) scrapbook, dba? Hehe.
I love office supplies too esp paperclips.
I have a bad habit of unbending paperclips – does anyone else suffer from this problem? I just can’t resist!
Hi, again, Riz! Don’t forget to email me your contact and mailing info :)
hihihi, office supplies! :) my favorite office supplies are paper clips and pencils! Mongol #2! :) and paper clips, paper clips are so useful! for clothes, accessories and even for tying my hair! :) hehe okay ang labo hehe
Paperclips! Yeah! I love paperclips too, but then they remind me of someone I dont want to remember anymore (LOL) so.. yeah. Haha ano ba, nde malabo no, gets ko naman! :)
Oops sorry almost forgot to answer your question—I got them at Office Depot here in the States :)
Ohhh. I thought so. I wish there’s a place I could get them from here in Manila. :(
Hi, Riz!
I loove Post-its, too! Don’t worry, I stick them to my notebooks as well ;) They just look like sidebars on the page, and make it look more dynamic.
