Organise Your Pencil Case

Is your pencil case a complete mess of pens and pencils? If so this article is for you! All you need is some money to buy the stationery, a few rubber bands, a pencil case, Oh! And you!

Steps

 * 1) To start you must find a pencil case that you like and that makes you feel confident! It should be sturdy too, It must be able to hold at least 1 or 2kg in it.
 * 2)  The next thing that you need to do is make a list of things that you need. Some basics are pencils, pens, erasers, and extra lead if you have mechanical pencils. Here's a list of what I keep in my pencil case:
 * 3) Smiggle Maze Pen (Blue Ink) They are fabulous!
 * 4) Bostik Glustik
 * 5) Stainless Steel Scissors
 * 6) Smiggle LadyBird Rainbow Pen
 * 7) Smiggle Pig eraser and Yum Yum Ice-Cream eraser
 * 8) Foohey Eraser (WaterMelon scented)
 * 9) Paper<3Mate FlexiGrip Blue Pen
 * 10) Paper<3Mate FlexiGrip Black Pen
 * 11) Paper<3Mate FlexiGrip Red Pen
 * 12) Paper<3Mate 4Ball Pens
 * 13) Stabilo Bionic Inky Pen (Blue Ink)
 * 14) Smiggle Liquid Duo Tips
 * 15) Smiggle Clam Sharpener Large
 * 16) Smiggle Giant PaperClip
 * 17) Smiggle Animal Lead Pencil
 * 18) Foohey Lava Ruler 30cm
 * 19) TEXTA Coloured Pencils
 * 20) Smiggle JellySnake Eraser Purple
 * 21) Smiggle 10 Pack Micro Bon Bon Highlighters
 * 22) Smiggle TwinTip Textas
 * 23) If you have a pencil case (Like Me)with two pockets on the top and one underneath,put all the things like pens, lead pencils etc. In the pocket underneath. In the biggest compartment, the coloured pencils and any big things like a ruler. Lastly the top pocket I keep my textas and highlighters in. But you do not have to follow what I do, It's completely up to you! Expess yourself! If you have alot of, crayons, textas and coloured pencils and a small pencil case you should tie your textas together with an elastic band as with your crayons and pencils etc.
 * 24) You should put your favourite and most useful pens on top of everything, so whenever you need them just grab them out.
 * 25)  Last of all, put your rubbers and sharpeners in an easy to grab compartment because the last thing you want is to have to empty out your pencil case just to find a rubber!

Tips

 * Try to buy a sharpener that catches the shavings so you do not have to get up every time to sharpen a pencil!
 * If you can, sort out your pencil case once a week. Throw away anything that's run out. If you notice you don't have something, just write it down and buy it the next time you're out shopping.
 * Try to sharpen your pencils every weekend so that on Monday morning you're not late to class!

 * Don't worry if your pencil case doesn't stay neat. Just try and keep it as nice as possible.
 * Don't buy an electric rubber or electric sharpener to take to school because they make noise when you use them, and the last thing you want is to be in the middle of a test and you are sharpening your pencil loudly!
