Big Mechanical Pencils By Apples on Oct 28, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Everyone knows about Bic's pencils, as they are really famous. Whenever I go school supply shopping with my mom and sister, I always look for the Bic pencils, because they are my absolute favorite. I especially like the ones with the soft colors and the white tips, because they are perfect for class. When I write, I prefer pencils with point five lead, because I have small handwriting. That seems to be Bic's specialty. They have great colors, such as light purple, blue-green, orange, pink, dark blue, and just plain old blue. They are perfect if you have classes, because you can color-code your pencils according to each class (I especially like to do this, because I am EXTREMELY organized). They just have an incredibly perfect look, so you know you'll want them for writing. But their grip could really use some work, because they don't have one of those little squishy pencil grips that typically come with pencils.
