<p>What do you find most convenient taking notes in/writing in?</p>
<p>whichever's easiest for you...</p>
<p>I find binders are good for organizing things, but for class I think notebooks work better because they're not as bulky and easier and more convenient to take notes in.</p>
<p>What about a legal pad? Some people use them.</p>
<p>No matter which you decide, I think it's obvious that this issue is paramount to college life and the wrong decision will, ultimately, take six to twelve years off your life.</p>
<p>And let's not even get started on pens versus mechanical pencils. I once killed a man for telling me I should buy a Sharpie. Jackass.</p>
<p>I love writing with the sharpie pens, though. Even if they smear :(.</p>
<p>Sharpies dry out quickly if you are a hard core student. And, they bleed through the paper. </p>
<p>Yellow number two pencils are my favorite. </p>
<p>I have been thinking of this notebooks v/s/ binder thing for a while. Because, I bought a ton of notebooks for next to nothing at Target. </p>
<p>Still I cannot decide. I am thinking of getting the old school Duo Tang folders for any loose handouts or whathaveyou.</p>
<p>I am the biggest nerd. But, being really organised is important for good grades, eh? My grades for my summer classes are going to be bad (in terms of how I view bad grades), so I am at home thinking of how to make straight A's for the fall. Because I am only going part time in the fall since I went full time all summer.</p>
<p>I foresee the return of the "Which colored pencils do I need???!!" threads.</p>
<p>Colored Pencils?!</p>
