My Personal EDC (Every Day Carry)

"Everyday Carry, or EDC, generally refers to small items or gadgets worn, carried, or made available in pockets, holsters, or bags on a daily basis to manage common tasks or for use in unexpected situations or emergencies. In a broader sense, it is a lifestyle, discipline, or philosophy of preparedness." (http://everyday-carry.com/) This is my personal EDC, what I carry, and why I carry it:

Moleskine Art Pt. 1

I carry around a large Moleskine blank sketchbook for when I get bored (ALOT) and decided to try my luck at drawing one of the dragons from Reign of Fire, it turned out much better than I thought and gave me an idea, why not put all my semi-artwork up here? so I am. I present: my miserable artwork (I promise I'll get better!)
I thought this was a really cool image of the Moleskine logo

Review: Moleskine Notebooks and Zebra Stainless Pens

For my first review I will be talking about Moleskine Notebooks as well as Zebra Stainless Pens for EDC (Everyday Carry) and general usefulness. Currently I EDC a Zebra F-301 Compact Pen that I disassembled and painted with a gunmetal wheel coating I've had lying around for a few years, as well as an extra-small Moleskine Soft-Cover notebook (3 1/2"x5 1/2"). I absolutely love them both and have used them quite often. I do wish the Moleskine was thicker but for what I need it works perfectly and I barely notice that it is taking up space in my back pocket! There is just something unique about physically writing things down in a notebook instead of typing them into a cell phone to be forgotten. Moleskine sells their notebooks directly through their site, but I got mine at Barnes and Nobles The Zebra F-301 Compact Pen is my writing instrument of choice. It easily opens into a full size pen but is compact enough to fit into my jeans coin pocket. The line is smooth and does not bleed through paper or "blob" together, yet is easily readable.

Now for Pictures!!!
