Pragmatic Pen By RachelReviews on Jul 30, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Sure, I'm a person who loves all the bells and whistles most of the time, but not so much when it comes to my writing implements. Gel ink? Nah! It does not dry immediately and gets allover the side of my hand. Wild colors? Nope! I'll stick with dark blue to write with. Cushions and click-to-write buttons? No, no, unnecessary! I'll take the pen with the bare essentials.

I have loved these Bic Round Stic White Barrel Medium Point 1.0 mm pens with blue ink for as long as I can remember.

I recollect taking notes with these throughout school. Currently, I write all my to-do lists with them.

Due to their round shape, they don't leave deep marks in my fingers. I press hard when I write, and other pens, like Bic's Cristal Ballpoints, leave deep, irritating marks due to the raised edges on their barrels.

Though I do like to switch around with different brands and products, I don't see myself switching pens anytime soon. I'm certainly not rushing to change.
