plethora of words
I've only just noticed something about myself.
I like words a bit crazymad.
It just occurred to me that I can't seem to work with a clean sheet of notes with lots of white space. Somehow I feel happier when the entire piece is covered with my tiny scrawl. In multiple colours, preferably.
That's another thing -- I'm happier reading notes that are done in my own handwriting than notes that are printed. No matter how beautiful the font and how neat, clear and precise the layout.
Maybe it's because I like to put a personal mark on what I use. Maybe it's my habit of feeling the back side of a paper that's been written on -- I love the feel of the raised bits from the force of the writing overleaf. (That's probably why I can only use ball point or gel-based pens for day-to-day work... felt-tip pens would die.)
Heh.
