You've got to have the right stationery to look the part, right?

I confess, I have a 'thing' for stationery.. one of the first things I do whenever I get a new job, a new project or new voluntary position is get appropriate stationery.. I now have three different bags, each with their own stationery...one for work, one for college and now one for placement.... Maybe this isn't 'normal' :P

    Why bother with formal stationery? Just make an appropriate letterhead in your computer and print it as needed.

    I guess I was thinking of stationery in the wider sense of the word? Like pens, pencils, highlighters, notebooks, files.. I don't need any letter heads

    Ok, well that would make it more organized to be able to just grab a bag for each depending on what you were doing.

    It may not be normal, but that doesn’t make it wrong. What is normal anyways?  It’s not everyday that you get something on paper. I think it’s nice that you’d put in extra effort to make yours even better. 

    I bet bet there are many not normal people that feel the same about their fonts.

    Nice to see you on here again!  Placement?  What's placement?  Does that mean you are looking for another job or that you already found one?

    Kind of neither.. I am only able to pop here on a light and ad-hoc basis - an assignment is due... a placement is a voluntary position where you work unpaid in order to gain experience or in this case, the required number of clinical hour s in order to qualify.  I owe you an email!

    I think you made a rather mundane thing much more enjoyable.  Good for you.
