Default Blue or Black?

Which color ink do you prefer to use, blue or black? Black is fine for formal stuff like work and school, but I like to write in my private notebooks with blue ink. It stands out more, and it feels more personal.

I like black, because it's simple. I used to use random colors in school when I was allowed to, like pink, purple etc. It makes writing more fun to me

I also prefer black although blue is neater when it comes to notes but I still like the black ink. I like gel pens because the ink is kinda thick and good for writting. Back at school it always makes me wanna copy more notes with a gel pen .

Oh, I remember gel pens. I always thought that they were too good to use at school. I would eventually throw away my notes, so I just used regular black ink. Gel pens, especially the blue ones, were best for writing in my journals, something I would never throw away.

I really liked the multicolor pens. Those were really fun!!

That's really a waste here gel pens are thrice the price of a regular pen so I always make sure I could write semething good in my notebook. Sometimes what annoys me in regular pens is that when you accidentally drop it there's no ink comming out afterwards.

I did yes, and then a member told me they were having trouble reading them, so I stuck with black

Well, I've never actually thought about it so I just looked into my pen pot and realised that all of my pens are blue.

I do have a black pen in my handbag though.

Gel pens do tend to cost a bit more than the cheaper pens that you can buy in bulk anywhere. I get it; they're special, so I would make sure that I wrote with them on special occasions. I liked all the variations on a single color: blue, baby blue, sky blue, dark blue....

I love buying pens in the Japanese dollar stores like Daiso etc. They have
good quality pens real cheap. And they are Made in Japan, not some
Chinese crap ;-)

Gel pens also seem to smear a lot easier, which isn't good for me, cuz I always get it all over my hand lol. It's kinda annoying. Maybe I'm just messy

I love writing with gel pens.. For exams i always use gel pen as i am so cozy writhing with it and my hand writing comes out neat with gel pen.. But since gel pens cost much more than regular pens i use it only ocaasionally for my special purposes like writing diary and all.. I prefer blue over black when it comes for writing notes in colleges..
