To think that I used to collect pens as a kid….
Every day I get amazed with the things I come across in the Internet. The world is changing at a quick pace, and sometimes when I think about what it was like a decade ago, the contemporary reality now seems almost alien. For example, when I was a kid back in the 80′s, one of my hobbies was collecting pens. Boy, did I love getting new pens, and did I reveled whenever I happened to find a new one. It may sound dumb, but back in the day things were a lot different, and something as simple as buying a new pen might be something exciting.
To think that nowadays, there are websites selling personalized pens at less than a dollar! It really blows my mind away. Back in my youth, I sometimes spend several dollars to buy a unique pen… and that was twenty years ago! Nowadays I could simply order all the pens I could possibly imagine for a fraction of the price. Lol, on the other hand collecting pens no longer seems like such a fun idea as it did back then. Maybe it was me who changed, or maybe it’s just a different world? Well, I don’t see many kids nowadays with those kinds of hobbies, so I guess it’s not just me.
