PEN CHECK

PEN CHECK

I got a new pen two weeks ago and haven’t used it for a week. So in order to check the condition of the pen I fished out a paper from my shelf and started to write. The following material does not reflect my writing abilities but rather the thoughts that just went in my mind when I was totally into checking the pen. So please bear with the spills from my head.

The possibility of what I am writing having any sense is rare because I just took my pen and started writing. And the pen stopped writing in the last sentence, so I had to shake the pen once that is evident from the ink spills in the left top corner of this paper. I have written this much and still do not know what to write about. A thought wanders in my mind. I once read or heard somewhere that if you write for ten continuous years you can become a successful writer. So I am wondering whether writing meaningless sentences like these for ten years will really make me a writer. But I do not know about that for sure, all I know by commonsense is that if I am going to write stuff like this for ten years I will be blunting more than ten fountain pen nibs, waste fifteen bottles of ink of varying colors, half an acre of paper and not to forget, ten years of my life. Someone trying to be intelligent will point out that I have left out the number of pens I am going to waste. For such people I want to reveal something special about me,’I do not loose, break r eat pens’, unless my table is hit by an earthquake and the top floors crumble exactly on my table. And for the still persistent ones after this explanation of mine, ‘I am sorry, I forgot!’. Anyways I do not know about whether I am going to waste next ten tears writing stuff like this but you surely have wasted ten minutes in reading one!
