My Note-Taking Must-Haves

The pens, highlighters, and paper goods behind my note-taking videos — wishlist finds for students.

These are the highlighters you always see in my note-taking videos. The colors are soft enough that my notes don't look like a neon mess, and they don't bleed through my notebook pages. I reach for the gray and blue ones the most.

I go through sticky notes like crazy during exam weeks. The super sticky ones actually stay put on my textbook pages and don't curl up at the edges. I use them for formulas I keep forgetting and little reminders to myself.

This is the notebook I use for my neatest lecture notes. The paper is thick enough that my highlighters don't bleed through, and it just feels nice to write in. Worth it for classes where I really need to keep up.

I use these for titles and headers in my notes. The brush tip makes my handwriting look way nicer than it actually is, and the fine tip is good for underlining. They've lasted me a whole semester so far.

These are a lifesaver for marking important pages in my textbooks. I color-code by subject so I can flip right to what I need. They stick well but come off clean when I need to move them.

These are my everyday writing pens. The ink dries fast so it doesn't smudge, and the 0.5mm tip is perfect for my small handwriting. I keep one in my backpack, one on my desk, and one in my purse.
