    3. The mesmerising beauty of this incredible tool, which makes me go "HOW", even today.

    4. Spending hours in ensuring you become an expert at this game.

    5. Or becoming an expert in trading these.

    6. And when there was a strict teacher in class, sneakily playing this game without making a sound.

    7. Waking up early to clean these on P.T. day, only to return as if you'd trudged through a warzone.

    21. Knowing full well that no technology could repair the damage you inflicted to the back of every pencil.
