there's a certain charm to carrying a refillable pen with the intention of always having it, like you would your phone, or your wallet. the pen just becomes a part of your life. it's one less thing to throw away and i like that.
pictured is the famed parker jotter. i urge everyone to try carrying a refillable pen. you might lose it eventually but it's worth a shot.

everyone needs to write with a fountain pen at least once in their life. it's an entirely different experience from writing with your typical rollerball or ballpoint. there's no need to press down because the ink just flows off the nib effortlessly.
i have a small but steadily growing fountain pen collection myself and my favorite pen to collect is the kaweco sport. it's a beginner-friendly pocket pen that's perfect for my hand size.
you can even choose what inks to put in your pen. there's an extensive ink selection to choose from. the fountain pen hobby is very personal with endless possibilities for customization and freedom of expression.
if you do decide to pick one up, make sure you use fountain pen-friendly paper to get the most out of your pen and get the best writing experience possible. the rhodia pad is a good place to start.

they're nifty, elegant, and fun. all the little things that make up a fountain pen are very cool-- nibs, ink cartridges and converters, clips, oh and of course, INKS! some fountain pens are for calligraphy, others for everyday use. there's beginner-friendly ones and super fanciful ones, too. i like them all. they can be cute or they can be classy, have your pick. you can be a lamy loyalist or a twsbi truther. as for me? i'm with the kaweco kind. much love to my pilot pals always. they can be an expensive hobby, so i make do with my humble, tiny collection.

we're all going to die one day. better to die with used notebooks than empty ones.
they don't need to look pretty. as long as you're writing, you're doing something right.

if they don't ask about your life, then they don't deserve to know about it. don't give away the lore for free. keep 'em guessing.
