Well, I'm planning on getting good pens and nice looking books. But I'm mainly typing stuff on the computer but I guess I'll have a spare notebook since it's easier than using a loose leaf.
I'm planning on having a binder for a each subject-- this is where I put my lecture notes, assignments etc or whatever for that subject but I'm thinking of having a summary notes binder where I summarise all my notes and make tables and stuff (ie. proper notes, well for me it is) in that folder. So notes from tuts and stuff could probably go in my lecture notes binder and notes summarising what I learnt from Week One, Fortnight One, End of Month or End of Semester will go in my summary notes binder.
I'm not sure if that makes sense but here's just what I want to buy since I'm a stationery hoarder. Here's what I'm buying tomorrow before all the stock runs out:
* Highlighters x 2 sets (because I always run out).
* Sticky tabs
* Sticky note pads
* Pens - black, blue & red (buy some good ones! They can motivate you ahah)
* Clips
* Stapler
* Plastic pockets
* Pencils (if you need to depending on what course you're doing)
* Sticky tape
* Blu tack (It may come in handy one day)
* Binders x 2 per subject, depends on how you go, I guess. (One for lecture, one for summary)
* Folders (So if you're feeling lazy to organise something you just put it here temporarily until you have time to organise the info)
* Contact paper (To wrap your textbooks)
* Notebook - 5 subject or if you tend to use up lots of room, just stick with single notebooks.
I think that's it for now as I've yet to finalise this list.
