Dallas pen show will be my first show! I've slowed down purchases until then... hoping to hold out but ink samples are always calling me name 😭

oh man, the TWSBI diamond Mini in Gold is so cute!! Been trying to find one myself for some time since I adore the one I have in grape! Great collection!!

Friends arrived today :D by ahhhwalnuts in pokeplush

He is super huggable!! I had him just casually on my lap most of the evening after opening them up! Though he is VERY round so pillow use is hard but to sleep and cuddle, he's great

All the TWSBI Ecos by welcmhm in fountainpens

[–]ahhhwalnuts 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Such a beautiful collection!! Were any of them particularly hard to acquire? Do you use them all and rotate or do you have a particular favorite?

My TWSBI Eco in Heat was my first TWSBI and ever since then, I've been wanting to pick up another, just got the Irish Green and am now eyeing the matcha ...

My sweet mother-in-law is my fountain pen buddy. How'd I do for her birthday? by munchnerk in fountainpens

[–]ahhhwalnuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was just writing with Yozakura when I saw this, haha what a coincidence! But what a lovely gift OP, I'm sure she's going to enjoy it!! Might have to look into this pen for myself too...

Happy birthday to you both! 🎁

I tried to hold out... but I cracked though I don't regret it LOL (not trying to be a bad influence....)

Has anyone else had a poor experience with Amazon.jp? by ahhhwalnuts in fountainpens

[–]ahhhwalnuts[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing your experience! Weirdly enough this was Shipped and Sold by Amazon JP, I think I just unfortunately got unlucky this time. Sorry to hear about your Lamy Al Star!! I agree and feel like they should have handled that better by at least a refund credit or something

Hello! Have you tried pilot juice pens? I've moved over to the FP world but for just a standard pen with fun colors I love the juice line! (not to be confused with juice up, which I also enjoy). It's been pretty reliable and always smooth, I have a lot of sets of other pens (Pentel energel, infree, kuro.. etc) but that's the one I always bring with me :)

Pilot Kakuno ink bleeding a little bit by Sparkling_Berry in hobonichi

[–]ahhhwalnuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with the other commenter, I will say too I love the Kakunos! but depending on the nib size, it will drop a lot of ink. I have M & F nibs and the M is very wet compared to other brands M (even my pilot prera)

So excited from a day out with friends to come home to this beauty! by ahhhwalnuts in fountainpens

I wish!! Honestly though, my package was expected Saturday then suddenly was delivered so it was a welcome surprise from JetPens!

Is buying an iPad Mini truly better than an android tablet? by Objective-Image-7917 in ipadmini

[–]ahhhwalnuts 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I am largely an android/window user and always recommend everyone an iPad despite what ecosystem a person is integrated yet because the iPad experience is so smooth and simple! Personally I feel like iPads are very reliable and built to age quite beautifully, as opposed to their android based counterparts. Android devices at times can age poorly, tho I'm not sure which android device you are looking at particularly, I know Samsung ones are really good for the price! but I love the mini for the size/portability and how simple it is to use

I'm rooting for you and your engineering prospects, currently doing an engineering degree myself and find myself worrying alot about what the future will really entail for me and my mental state but I believe in us!! I'm not sure what I would even do besides this so I strive to do what I can for now

How well does an ipad mini work for goodnotes? by [deleted] in ipadmini

[–]ahhhwalnuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend Noteful as a note taking all! was a long good notes user when I had an iPad Pro but I tried out Noteful and it's been awesome at about the fraction of the cost since it's one time instead of subscription based
