Poppy dying Doing joke

[@Nini-nb9fm]

Lmao same!

[@TessaOswin]

I did the whole of my high school and first two years of uni using up all the free pens I got at a career fare. We had to pay a little for the bus so we all decided to get every freebie possible. My sister also didn’t buy any pens for about three years.

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

[Edit]: Please keep in mind that my channel is mainly about planning/bullet journaling, and I don't make any professional drawings/illustrations. Therefore, I don't own any alcohol-based markers (e.g. Copics), because they bleed through regular paper and I wouldn't do them justice anyways. ❤️ Links to everything (plus time stamps) are in the description!

[@shellyelle1374]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!

[@mariabusto7169]

yesss!!!

[@clarasousa1836]

MyLifeinaBullet Yes!!!!

[@melissacronecarvell]

Yes! I'd love to see one with notebooks 💛💛💛💛

[@jenden9008]

And other tools, organisation, desk set up etc.

[@tchr.p.3x2]

Oh boy. This is porn for me. I have lil' hands marker brand. It's similar to crayola. I wish I live in the same country as you do. There's not much of an art supplies here in the PH.

[@tchr.p.3x2]

Do a collab with SeaLemon. :D

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Oh I would love to, she's amazing! But I doubt she even knows about me, haha! :D

[@boompanes2985]

Perry Quejada Yep. But you can actually buy crayola from nbs

[@tchr.p.3x2]

Boom Panes it hard to find a lot of cool stationery stuffs here in our country and the materials tend to be expensive. We have sakura and marvy uchida tho.

[@김대중-z9q]

Perry Quejada I'm Filipino too (well half) and maybe you could try buying at amazon or online shops kuya?

[@MarileesWorld]

The only person who has apologized for my wallet. I appreciate it! 👍

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

+MarileesWorld Hahah! I will gladly take the blame for any "damages" caused! 😂

[@candycake9531]

You. Are. Not. The. Only. One.

[@Nini-nb9fm]

Actually....i got the cash, i got skills...all i need is my parent’s permission 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@sea5205]

My addiction for pens is getting out of hand

[@cateyes3813]

Seino Hahahaha 😆

[@lea-jadenolan6348]

Honestly same! I have sooooo many but I keep buying more!😂😅🥺

[@ruiyang5821]

I have more than a 1000 pen. I have one room specially for pens and stationery

[@Stickerbombsquad]

I feel the same way! And I don't even use mine! I just stick to my old beater pens and just stock and look at the new ones I purchase!

[@stangot7309]

Same

[@sharonwilliams1586]

Yes to the storage container video!

[@journalspiration8646]

First of all, the video couldn't be better, very good content and awesome editing! I'm not kidding right know, I have my mildliners since a year and never knew that they had 2 tips. 🙈😂 I only used the marker one for the whole year and I just discovered it through the video, I feel so stupid right know. 😅 So thank you for letting me know 🙈

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Hahahah! 😂 Don't worry, the same thing happened to me when I first got them. And then one day I was trying to read the label and saw the word "FINE" with the arrow pointing to the other end. 😂 Thank you so much for the kind words, Marie!

[@niekasniekeno2977]

Journalspiration omg

[@Jopay9894]

Journalspiration Me too! Best camouflaged double tip pen ever. I’ve had mine for two months. I probably would never discover it if not for this vid. 😂

[@jasminesantiago4761]

journalspiration uuh

[@sophiamourad4830]

Now is now not know

[@miaccg5621]

i laughed so hard when she said “i have a few supplies”

[@emmamaples7517]

"You get the point." Nice accidental pun.

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Emma Maples Hahah! Didn't realize, so cool you noticed! 😂

[@Soupysoups99]

A video on how to make your storage case would be great! And another video similar to this one on notebooks is also a great idea!

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

+Riley Kwentus I'll definitely be adding these at the top of my to-do list! ❤️

[@dinarawrrr]

Riley Kwentus yes! Please make a video on the storage

[@kimberlymoye6771]

I would love ❤️ a video tutorial on how to make your pen storage please 😊

[@alyj.l7461]

The quality and the carefulness of this video it's praiseworthy, thank you

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Aly J.L That means more than you know, THANK YOU!! ❤️

[@gizuki]

loved everything about it! and please make a tutorial on the penholder-thingy

[@WellOfEchoes]

This video is 2 years old. I've watched so many swatching videos in preparation for my bullet journal yet yours is still the standout. Beautifully presented, so organised and your font choice is perfect. Great video. On to watch your pen storage DIY now!

[@annalyndell]

Love that you show the other side of the page so that you can see how much it bleeds through, thank you for including this detail to the video!

[@angwaandmiwa9323]

She makes them look so professional and I'm here with my alcohol markers like, I want those xD

[@dee_ewell_pierce]

This is my new favorite pen video of all times! Thanks for posting!

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

+Dee Pierce That's a huge compliment, thank you so much! I'm so so happy you enjoyed it!

[@KhadijahAbdulNabi]

Dee Pierce agreed!

[@lisapeng5875]

I've spent so much time (maybe too much time) this summer watching bullet journal videos; I only stumbled upon your channel an hour ago but I'm so glad I did. All of your videos are clearly well thought out and beautifully edited. Your channel will go so far! If you do a Q&A anytime soon: When did you first start bullet journaling, and what did a typical planning spread (weekly/monthly/daily) look like for you back then?

[@notgaloguin]

omg I love how all the colors fit perfectly in your paper, you organized everything so perfect.

[@hex5852]

Your videos have such gorgeous editing and setup. I like the way you showcased your collection. Also love your sense of humour!

[@sharondipity152]

So many great ideas here! I love the samples of the black ink pens with their point size written next to them, and something about all of the color swatches just makes me happy! You have a real gift for making videos and editing. 👏 👏 👏. Yes, I would love to see a video of how you made your foam board pen holder. Thanks for another awesome video!

[@viys3261]

Water also works great with the crayola supertips. When I want a “watercolour” look I just scribble the crayola on some plastic and use a brush with water to pick it up. Works really great!

[@nicoleskey]

I think I am just a huge sucker for rainbow aesthetic! Love it🌸

[@ChuuChuuPanda]

Beautifully edited videos. Seriously you've got an eye for all aesthetics

[@mrstofu2]

i love the kohi noor pencils too! the reason why i clicked on this channel was because i was interested in learning about the crayola tips but i learned so much more and that's not a bad thing. I have heard about tombows and my birthday is coming up and this gives me something to think about.

[@cbgavalda7103]

I love how you store them!

[@Morena1268]

Hi Christina, loved this video ! I've always been obsessed with pens and papers, since I can remember so seeing all your pen collection was eye candy for me lol. Some ladies love to go shoe shopping, I'm in heaven when I enter a stationery store. Anyway, I'm a new fan of your channel, looking forward to more of your videos . Cheers!

[@Zairanang]

I love this video so much. The swatches are so clean and even. Everything is in spectral order. Your voice is so soothing as well.

[@kaykay9462]

My Collection has just got started I find most of my pens and marker super cheap at dirt cheap only spent $5 on fineliners , felt tip and a few sharpie pens eheihc was awesome I always go back and check currently look for deals on micro pens , zebra midliners and so on I love how many colors you can get I can’t wait to collect more

[@edcataldo]

Holy cow. This is so thorough and informative and visually satisfying. 😍😍

[@candycake4051]

The Pentel Sign is a fine tip felt pen for regular use. The Pentel Touch is a fine tipped brush pen similar to the Tombow fudenosuke that is for calligraphy. You didn't buy cheap ones, you bought the wrong item. I hoped this helped.

[@starlitcrafts2680]

Amazing video! Thanks for sharing! I like that you went into detail about each pen and did a comparison between similar pens! Would love to see a desk tour!

[@sophiechristie27]

Thanks so much! No other video I’ve seen told me that the Tombow Brush pens are better bought individually etc. thanks !

[@cherylcullen9087]

Hi!! I would love to see a video on how you made your pen storage thingy!! Your have an awesome collection of pens!! I taught myself calligraphy years ago...loved it so much!! I need to get back to doing it again!! 🦋

[@faustianacademia]

I love your collection. I have been collecting stationary for the past 15 years and I would love to add some of your amazing pens to mine 😍. Thanks for sharing.

[@mmare6864]

What an excellent video, extremely helpful, finally someone thought to make a video to cover the writing instruments. Well done and thank you.

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

M Mare You are so kind, thank you! Makes me so happy to hear you enjoyed it! ❤️

[@Zairanang]

ok so this was in my recommended and I watched it on a whim, but omg. Wow. I'm so amazed at how organised you are. All the swatches were so neat, you went through each pen in so much detail like they were each a child of yours lol. You voice is so nice and soft. You can tell this whole video was put together with so much planning and preparation. Subscribed. How long did it take you to do this video?

[@Zairanang]

And you put time stamps and links to where you can get each thing in the description! I'm speechless. I need to hire you to organise my life!!

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Zairanang Haha, best comment ever, thank you!! 😂 This video took me a long time to make, especially the editing.. I'd say probably 40 hours total. But I am getting faster at editing so that's good 😁❤️

[@---ck2vv]

MyLifeinaBullet Where can you get the storage container? And what is it called?

[@TheGaminha]

Yes to the storage container video! Love the video.

[@1nd1v]

You have a stationery lover paradise just there!! I've just discovered your channel and I've already watched all your videos haha I love the edition, how you show and explain everything and of course,your style and bullet journal,you are really talented. Wishing to see more :)

[@mercyhawke183]

I have 3 out of the 4 sets out of the Kaiser color gel pens (pastel, metallic and glitter) and the glitter ones are amazing! I use them in my bullet journal lots!

[@KylaCymon3]

Great video! Thank you for the links & time stamps! 💞 I really enjoyed how well put together the was overall

[@theusefulunicorn490]

*thank you so much for putting all your pens in the description box it made my day because I thought you would be lazy and not put them so I spent like 1 and a half looking for them in amazon THX YOU SO MUCH*

[@CamillaLoschbrandt]

Your videos are so amazing. Not only the content (you are so talentet), but the editing 😮 Omg! 💕 What video editing software are you using?

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Camilla Løschbrandt Thank you so so much! ❤️ The editing does take up a long time but it's something I really enjoy doing. I use mostly Adobe Premiere Pro, but you could achieve the same editing in Final Cut as well, for instance. 😊

[@smedina146]

I was thinking the same thing! what a great model in what a perfect video looks and sounds like!! easy to listen to, smooth, silky voice and the editing itself is superb!! well done!!

[@luannetalbot573]

Camilla Løschbrandt bubh

[@maddy7386]

I love your channel so much you are so talented ❤❤

[@aditirajan7996]

[@lg4995]

"But the colors are nice!" :D 😂

[@christinege5387]

Thanks for sharing your pen collection. This is a very helpful guide for me to buy craft supplies in the future.

[@WarmFrontNapoleon]

I love the Crayola Super Tips! My pilot frixions are my babies. I've literally ran outside in the middle of the night to pull them out of the car so they wouldn't get too hot by the time I got up. lol

[@EliseWolski]

Thank you so much for this video!!! I just started my first bullet journal this week and all of your videos are super helpful and amazing/entertaining!!

[@collegevloggerv6728]

Thank you for showing the different brands I buy all my supplies online and was wondering about the zebra brand

[@constancekim608]

So glad I found your videos! Love your style. Thx for sharing your journal!

[@Dandieelionn]

[@anitaashraf97]

[@Y2KCowgirlRevival]

[@hafsahtayab6759]

SophiaN LoL

[@sunshineandsarcasm]

[@Chloe.e.funk1]

SO GLAD I FOUND YOU ACCOUNT. And I'm definitely going to subscribe to that monthly pen box. (If it ships to Canada). Love your work and your calligraphy style is so beautiful. Thanks for your tips and thanks for putting amazon links below!

[@cameronheinz3659]

i would love to see how you made your pencil organizer! Yes, please make a video on it.

[@oliviarailton8887]

This is literally the most satisfying video of all time.

[@makenziewagoner2866]

Just found this.. Thank you so much! I'm just starting to plan out my bullet journal and as I've never done it before I didn't know what would be good to use and this video helped bunches!!

[@nassera8550]

I love the differentiation of your handwriting

[@ashleytok7311]

I actually learned how to do calligraphy using a pentel sign pen, so it's possible to to calligraphy with it ! I think it just takes a little more practise but it's definitely doable. LOVED the video

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Ashley Tok Hmm, are you sure you're not talking about the Pentel Touch pen? They look exactly the same but they have softer tips and they're made for calligraphy. These are just like markers :D But I guess you can do calligraphy with any pen, at least faux one hehe :D

[@sofiagm9610]

I really recommend you the ecoline brush pens, they’re just great!❤️

[@RainbowKittensCozyCorner]

Almost everything in this playlist I use for stress relief coloring 🧝🏻‍♀️💖🖊🖌🖍🍡🍭

[@yiyingng1785]

You can definitely use the pentel touch pen for calligraphy!

[@eena1790]

i just realized that my fave shop sells tombow brush pens. I saw the cap and the same logo and boom i finally held a tombow brush penwithout even knowing.

[@Randomness-hc2hl]

Lol same and the whole time i had no idea it was a tombow brush until i watched this video

[@kat3270]

You're edititng is life.

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Thanks so much Kat!!

[@manasadesikan4838]

[@debblws1961]

Wow! Great information. The links are invaluable time savers. Thanks so much. Love your videos

[@evietruong1847]

Your aesthetic is to die for! Please do a how to on calligraphy ❤️

[@wania1395]

Great!! I have a huge pen collection myself too. I dont like pens like copics though, because they bleed through paper too much... By the way thanks for letting me know that mildliners have two sides because i had been using the highligting tip for 1 and a half years and never knew that they had a fine tip as well :)

[@ayeeitsveronika5004]

I have the wink of Stella and I cleaned it out and I use it as a dupe for a waterbrush, its amazing

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

ayeeitsveronika Omg that's an awesome idea, I'll totally do the same!! 😄

[@alairedominguez7654]

This intro is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen

[@SHEBBLESLIFE]

I use copics and posca paint markers.The best fine liner you have is the uniball one

[@cgirl4078]

by far the most helpful video I've seen yet.

[@crownjewels4]

Wow. U explained this beautifully. And it was enjoyable to watch

[@denizucar9154]

you make every pen look perfect

[@miru4995]

Please make a DIY on the pencil holder! It's AMAZAING!

[@lindsey9094]

[@justinredd932]

The INTRO was EVERYTHING!!

[@noffarpeeri9995]

i liked a lot your hand writing! it will be pleasure to see a video about it to!!

[@Pipi-yd5st]

OMG!!! I wish I could have all those pens😍😍😍😍 I'm addicted

[@paris98]

Phu-Den-Ose-Key > Fudenosuke :) in case you didn't find out yet, I know this was a year ago, but just wanna help. This was a great video! The quality, edits, and description was absolutely perfect!

[@myozbubble]

I enjoyed your explanation of the different pens.

[@bookofspirit]

Wow this is the vanity I want to see😊😊😊

[@yaydenicia]

Hey! I use the pentel sign pens for calligraphy actually! The tips seem stiff at first, but work with them a bit and they'll start to give and get softer. They're different from brush pens in the sense that they allow you to use more pressure on the down strokes, which makes for greater control and less shaky lines, especially for beginners! :) maybe try them out using more pressure and see if it works for you too? Love your content by the way!

[@MyLifeinaBullet]

Denicia Lew Thank you so much! Are you sure you're not talking about the Pentel Touch Sign pens? They look exactly the same but those are made for calligraphy, whereas the Sign that I have are just stiff as can be. 😅

[@yaydenicia]

Oh wow, you're right - I didn't know there were 2 versions! I just checked, and mine are indeed the Pentel Touch Sign pens. Haha!

[@emilygravina6755]

Omg thank you! your videos are 😍😍😍😍 everything I could ask for, you just did it! Good job!!! kisses from Italy

[@gracefortner7007]

I loved your intro. Editing queen!

[@azeminaay4971]

Thank you for sharing, really well made video, the graphic shots were creative 👌😊

[@truolson9454]

Hi. Just a note about your second fountain pen - I believe it's likely to be a Deli brand pen from China. I have several. I like having them for carrying in my bag so I can leave my treasures at home. I got mine from AliExpress but I think you can find them on Amazon and eBay.

[@noffarpeeri9995]

love it! i'd like to see a video like this about notebooks😊 and also I'd like to see a video about cheap crafts, journaling supplies, etc that you bought Online❤

[@sandyudus]

her handwriting is so so so so pretty

[@glennachong7300]

Love, love, love your reviews and videos!!!

[@RajashreeGhoshdiya]
