In about 3 hours I start my final final-exam. I'll be taking it with the very same pencil that I used to complete my first homework assignment, 6 years ago. I don't usually get all emotional about stuff, but for some reason, once it occurred to me that I had been using it all this time, it got to me. Over the last 6 years I've been through a lot of of struggles and turmoil; memories, good and bad; and the one thing that was always with me was this stupid pencil.

Theory is when you know everything and nothing works. Practice is when things work, and no one knows why. Here we combine theory and practice. Nothing works and no one knows why.

Nice, I like those; the ones with the side clicker to advance the lead (at least it looks that way from the pic). I have some similar to that one that I use for sketching when I’m away from my studio.
Grats on being done! I remember the elation I felt when I graduated... It was one of the best times of my life.

LOL! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, or some such cliche. I like the idea of getting it framed, maybe a shadowbox or something. And yeah, it's one of those side clicker ones. Thanks for wishing me luck, this is going to be a beastly exam.

Maybe you keep losing it because, subconsciously, you know it is an ugly pencil and you want to be rid of it. Try getting a nice pencil, then you will stop losing it. That's my advice!

Like I said.. subconscious! You don't ask for it back because you don't want it! You really need to get yourself a nice pencil. Every man should love his pencil.

Sometimes it's the ugly pencils that work the hardest for you....because they know they are ugly and you make them feel special by keeping them... ;P Anyway, some more good lucks and congrats thrown your way Drew. And you should definitely shadowbox that sucker...
