		<description><![CDATA[In about 12 days, it will be my 12th year in Australia. 12 Years ago, I was so into drawing anime-style. So, when I moved, my first priority is to make sure that I have enough drawing supplies to last me until my next holiday home (i.e. I brought with me humongous amount of stationaries). Alas, shortly after my move, I realised that I love computer more than drawing (i.e. I am addicted to undo button). Hence, 3 years after my move, I prefer to design a website to conceptualising an artwork, use tablet to draw instead of pencil my sketches colour using photoshop than dipping my brushes to watercolour or airbrush my artwork (to date, I still have my airbrush propellant 3/4 full. The only times it gets to be used is when my bunny spray and clean the inside of his computer). choose large flat screen monitor than paper types coding instead of drawing I grew out of my addiction for anime not long after I quit drawing. I still admire the culture, read manga, collect cute stuff and watch animes every now and then and scribble but I am no longer obsessively keeping myself up-to-date with the trend. Anyway, this means, I am now a proud owner of stationaries that will probably last me until I die (if my usage pattern is like the past 9 years). These stationaries are not all I have. I have: pencils of with leads of different thickness and softness leads refills (of automatic pencil) of different thickness and softness  erasers (top brands), Japan made drawing brushes (black ink/calligraphy) colouring brushes (water colour) colour inks, watercolors, colour pens, etc airbush colour pens (e.g copic) correction pens of different sizes clips, cutters, pins, staples, etc novelty anime pencils, pens, erasers, pencil case, etc (i.e. Yu Yu Hakusho, Dragon Ball, CLAMP, etc) An assortment of drawing paper of different thickness, patterns and paper surface Apart from the novelty items, all stationaries are of high quality and some are very expensive. I was not a professional. It was a hobby and I was not as good or talented as some of my now artist friends. But I realised from the early age, high quality equipment (and best supplies) help a lot. They are easier to use (so you can just concentrate on practicing) and sometimes help camouflage your flaws. Mind you, these supplies are from 12 years ago. Some of them you can no longer found in the shop (they are now considered vintage ). Sometimes they made better stuff too in the olden days.  If I don&#8217;t start using them, I will probably give it to my (future) kids to use. They will be the best equipped at school. Though my bunny said that &#8220;Using your parents&#8217; stationaries would not be considered cool.&#8221; Damn! They will want the latest iPhone, iPad, netbooks, blackberrys, etc, instead.]]></description>
