The No. 2 Pencil or a Mechanical Pencil

I use a no. 2 mechanical pencil at 0.5mm lead, so technically, I use both. I don't know where mine is, so today I am stuck with a pencil that requires sharpening. I hate these pencils because I am used to having a pencil in my pocket and the ones that require sharpening tend to break off. I just tend to have no where better to put it. So, yeah. I prefer mechanical.

i dont really mind, i can use either/or

I don't care at all for regular pencils, I only use mechanical ones, even when I'm drawing. I like them because they're easy to keep sharp and don't get fuzzy. I also have an easier time reading what I've written when I use a mech. pencil vs a regular one. I do use a regular pencil if I'm drawing and doing shading, but it's an art pencil and not a #2. I haven't bought regular pencils in years, just always the refills for all of my mechanical pencils.

Although I don't write with pencils anymore...I always loved the mechanical pencils b/c you didn't have to keep sharpening them all the time. I still have some stored away just b/c I can't seem to toss them out. [b]MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! ~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG AND TRUST IN GOD**[/b]
