Yeah, January seems like the time when it's still easy to change this around. I realized that I created a setup for my past self from like 2 years ago. But today I need different solutions. 🤷‍♀️ What changes did you make?

@ I was using a hobonichi weeks for the first time, but I don’t like the paper. So now I’m using a blank A6 notebook for daily lists and an A5 weekly planner. I found I needed more space than the weeks offered.

Yay! Thank you so much! 😊

I love these videos as well! I learned so many tricks from other users, I can't even list them anymore. Thank you for watching! 😊

hat's really interesting, I didn't know this. Thank you for sharing! However, as a LEGO lover, I don't think there is a comparison here. In my opinion, the Lamy Safari lacks substance and weight, and the molding process could be better.

It's a great choice, but you really have to sell them on the design haha.

This is an amazing tip! I truly believe in quality over quantity so now that I know what I prefer, I'm looking into to the Sailor, Leonardo and Opus 88 pens.

Maybe. I have yet to run into a pen over $30 or maybe $40 that represents a significantly better experience. Maybe ten years ago, this was the case, but today … there are so many excellent, yet relatively inexpensive, pens in the $10 to $30 range. Now, of you want specialty nibs like a flex nib or some calligraphy grind or some such … well, that's a specialty nib and you pay more for that. But for pens for, you know, writing, I don't see a reason to pay over $30. The only "beginner" pens I see on the market are the disposable fountain pens.

@@t0dd000 Yes, there are some superb under $50 pens now. We each have different wants and needs. I used to have an excellent Schaefer as my one pen. It lasted me many years and then I 'lost' it. I nipped out to the local stationers and bought a $5.00 Parker. It was 'OK' and did me for a couple of years. Eventually I wanted a better pen and bought a Lamy Al-Star. Disappointing, the nib needed tuning and some polishing, but then it wrote like a dream. At the minute I am writing with a Lamy Studio with a very well tuned nib and a Diplomat Excellence A2. Similar pens in many regards. The Diplomat, with what many say is one of the best steel nibs on the planet, is in a completely different league for writing experience. Some mid to cheap pens later I got a Pilot 823... The difference in writing experience was extraordinary. Though someone else might want to spend that money on other things. Bottom line is that a carefully chosen 'good' pen will give a much better writing experience. But, we each make our choices and those choices are correct for us. Whatever you do do *not* go to a pen shop and try a Lamy 2000! 😁 Best to you.

@@kevinu.k.7042 I have written with an 823. It's a fine pen. Much finer than say the Asvine v126? Nope. The Lamy 2000 is simply not attractive to me. But that is a subjective thing. The Lamy Studio is beautiful, but that grip is … I'm not a fan. Anyway. Nice pens, but not worth the premium IMHO. It should be noted that I am probably going to break from my own position here and purchase a Franklin-Christoph just because (a) they are local to me, and (b) they make some really pretty pens. They are still just plastic pens like everything else, but they make some very pretty plastic pens. :)

@@t0dd000 My post was really directed at those who do work up the price scale. If you are happy with what you have then that is all that matters.

That’s such a great advantage for them! Now I’m excited to explore their premium options. Do you have any suggestions? 😊

@ You can get the soft grip you like on the Lamy Studio, it is a metal pen and looks lovely. However some people don’t like the look of the clip. The Lamy 2000 is just fantastic, I would look at it in person though when spending more money. I hope that helps a little.

@ thank you so much for your help! I'll check them out the next time I'm in a pen shop. 😊

The Lamy Safari the Al-star (why didn't they just call it the Al-Safari???) are engineering masterpieces. And that clip is brilliant.

​@ al-safari would be extremily confusing for most customers. I'm working in marketing for a decade now and let me tell you, people can't read.

I’m just glad to make my silly little videos haha ☺️❤️

Oh no, I'm really crushing your plans with this video haha. Fingers crossed you will like it more than me! I mean I still kept one so it's not horrible, but I'll definetly won't purchase more of them.

If you are able to try the Kaweco Sport out in a pen shop / stationary shop. I heard the brass one is amazing to hold, but yeah... the form factor is a hit or miss. Let me know how you liked it! 😊

I bought the steel sport and I am enjoying it. I would try it out. Full disclosure is that I have only owned it for 2 weeks

So glad you like it ☺️

Hongdian M2. I have one and it is superb. And only about $20.

It's honestly the best system I've ever tried! Which size / color do you have? ☺️

@ Having always used my phone calendar and never actually journaled, I didn’t want to spend a lot in case I didn’t use it. So I bought the regular size September Leather (Newestor) and that had so many accessories with it, a real bargain. It was on sale at the time on Amazon, £21. It’s brown.

Its my favorite ☺️

I wore it a few times before recording this and it hurt like hell. This method worked instantly.

Its the only way haha 😄

I found the pattern in a Spanish sewing magazine. If you're in Europe, you should look for Burda magazines. They are affordable and each issue contains 10-30 patterns with inclusive sizing. 🥰

Thank you so much! 🥰 Mistakes are part of the process haha

No, it's not. You develop the film in a dark room, but you can change it practically anywhere as you don't use the first 10 cm of it.

@@fannisophia dalej też się naświetli nie tylko te 10 cm 😆

​@@KosmicznyPoj3b Man, you are already on TH-cam. If you don't believe me watch some other videos on it. It's free.

@@fannisophia miałem doczynienia z takimi kliszami 😆 nawet u dziadków była ciemnia

@@KosmicznyPoj3b then this article will shock you to your core: www.lomography.com/school/do-i-have-to-load-film-in-my-camera-in-the-dark-fa-g3eb4ber#:~:text=There's%20no%20need%20to%20load,affect%20the%20shots%20you%20take.

I just drop off mine at a local lab. In my experience it’s much faster and they help you understand the process better ☺️ If you don’t have a lab near by then mailing seems like a good alternative!

Exactly! I tried to explain this to a friend today, but they just didn't get it haha 😀

@@fannisophia it’s magical :)

Hey! I use the Kaweco Sport fountain pen with the medium nib and their green ink cartridge. ❤️

Thank you!! 😊
