It's definitely a good investment. There aren't many "huge" events that warrant a full scrapbook page, so a SMASH book is suitable as I can still record meetups and movies and food adventures with my friends. I use it for trips abroad as well, since I take a lot of photos - it's a more compact way of scrapbooking and I save money, since I resize my photos to 4 in one 4R page and print them that way. On average I use one Smash book per 8 months (I'm on my 4th now), excluding trips because they take up an entire book or so (if I'm abroad for 2 weeks and more).
That being said, I stuff my smash book to the brim sometimes and my Red smashbook and the large Purple one cannot close properly, so the books have some spine issues. I did tear out half the pages (GASP) out of my black smash book (and I use them as backing, decoration, etc) and it's still pretty full, but not bursting at the seams. I guess it's because I like adding photos and knickknacks and some pop-out stickers from the craft store (I'm a craftaholic KILL ME). However I've seen people who've just stuck the basics (ie no decoration) and their books are still pretty full. Just for your consideration(:

Your hand will ache if you write for a long time regardless as its to do with the muscles in your hand moving. Youll never find a pen to stop this!
Id say uniball x

I used BIC Velocity Ballpoint pens for my exams this summer - the grip was great and the ink flow was brilliant, too

I assume yours is a degree? What university are you heading to? Are you excited?
I think start with small files, then expand (ha ha)! I'm just sticking with notebooks and I'll have one big lever arch for sheets at first!

I use one for university. I've always used a paper diary though - I really need to write things down as reminders. If I write notes on my phone I'll just forget and never look back!
If you don't really use paper diaries, it's probably a good idea to try it first before spending a lot of money on a Filofax. Some people just don't work well with writing things down on paper!
Okay guys, I need some help. I've been trying to find a good ballpoint with a nib that's less than 1.0mm. I'm finding that they're just really thick and I want something thinner!
Am I going to have to look into something 'posh' like the parker pens? I think I saw one under 1.0mm but it was a very high end brand. Looking in Ryman's and WHSmiths is failing me right now aha.
There's got to be fine ballpoints, right?!

That sounds amazing
It is indeed - a Joint Honours/Combined Degree in which I'll be doing a joint pathway so a 50/50 split and Derby University! I am excited but nervous but that is expected.
That's what I am going to do
I've tried to minimise the cost by only getting the essentials but it still has gone up to £67... oops!Original post by katehlouise

I have 5 lamy safaris, so I think they're amazing. They're reliable workhorse pens and don't break easily, they're inexpensive but still really good quality and the lamy warranty is outstanding. I though my nib was a little scratchy so I sent it to lamy after a year and they replaced it.
