Malaysia's stationary is still the BEST!

I'm going to go back to Malaysia next Monday and there's going to be a lot of last minute shopping for me to do. Besides the usual "Maggi mee"(lots!), and "chilli" (if I succeed in smuggling it in), not to mention those some Chinese medicines, I know I still need to get some stationaries.

I know I know its US we're talking about and not some deserted country in the Antarctic but I still prefer the stationary in Malaysia. I remember asking Cody to send me 2 Faber Castell highlighters for me during my winter holidays because I don't like using other highlighters. I don't like the office supplies in US because everything comes in a bulk. You want a ball point? Sure. Get 12 of them! Want A highlighter? Sure..! Either get all 12 different colors or 12 of the same colors! They don't have stationary shops like Popular which lets you try each and every pen of theirs until you're satisfied. Over there in US, you shop in either Wal-mart or Target and everything is seal tight!

I'm super fussy when it comes to stationary. If I don't have a pen or a mechanical pencil that I like, well.. I rather not write. Maybe that's why my mechanical pencil has been with me since I was 12! Because that's the only one that I like.

Now.. All I have to do is figure out what other stuff I need which I cant get in US. Any help guys?
