welcome back to my channel with Sakana
so as you can tell from my facial
expression I am super super high today
because we are finally doing the highly
requested stationery haul video now by
the time you see this video I'm probably
in Toronto already so if you want to see
my latest update feel free to go to my
Instagram account at I am Kanako now for
those of you that are interested in what
types of stationery I chose to brought
over to Toronto let's get started
[Music]
alright so the first thing that I want
to share with you guys is this backpack
right here I bought this online but I've
also found it in many of the stationery
or book stores in Taiwan now this is a
backpack by Ella comm I believe it's
from a Japanese brand and this is a
backpack that's designed for travellers
or photographers so this I gravitated
towards immediately as I will be making
vlogs and I do have a large DSLR and
also like a tiny little camera that I
like to bring with me at all times so
this one just seemed like a more logical
purchase now the thing that I love about
this is that there are so many
compartment but you can't really tell
because of the dark grey color now this
is waterproof and weatherproof so if you
don't have an umbrella and you have like
electronics inside this backpack it's
not going to get wet so that's one of
the good things about it
now the other thing that's good about it
is if you take a look at the sides of
this backpack there's this place where
you can pull it down and once you pull
down here there's actually a magnet that
kind of stick to it so it doesn't fall
open and what it does here is there's
this compartment and you can kind of
take it out like this
and what this compartment does is you
can fit your DSLR into this compartment
and there's two zippers on both sides so
you can fit one DSLR or two cameras or
you could put lenses inside after you
put it in and you pull on the zipper you
can put it into the backpack as is or
like me I don't think I'm gonna use this
a compartment because I think there's
too many zippers that way I just lift my
DSLR into this compartment right here
just slip it in and close it up and
whenever I'm on the go and I need to get
my DSLR out what I do is I'll just pull
down the zipper open it take out my
camera also if you take a look at this
front sight there's a little pocket
right here I think you can put like your
bus card or if you have any keys you can
leave it in here and there's another
bigger compartment right here and
there's a zipper so you can leave bigger
things over here so there's a lot of
tiny compartments now if you take a look
at the inside it's also very well
designed there are small compartments on
the top of the backpack you would have
more than enough compartments to
organize it so your backpacks not going
to be a mess now this is the main
compartment right so we have another one
at the back which is also this gigantic
compartment at the back of the backpack
where you would be able to fit a 14-inch
computer and some files and as you can
see from the back side they have put a
lot of paths at the back of the backpack
and also on the straps so when you're
carrying something that's really heavy
like a DSLR plus a notebook it's not
going to cost too much strain to your
back so I think this is very well
designed and also I really appreciate
that they have secret compartments at
the backside of the backpack where you
can put your passport or money or
anything that you feel is very important
that you don't want to risk getting
stolen and another thing is there is
this tiny little I would say like maybe
like a coin pouch so what you can do is
you could put little coins in here
and you put your keys in here if you
will if you don't like this design you
can actually take it off so it gives you
a lot of options now another thing that
I wanted to mention is that they
actually come with another strap here
and here and what you can do is you can
strap your tripod and you don't have to
try and stuff it into the main
compartment what you can do is you can
strap it outside of the backpack and
you're ready to go so that is my new
backpack for I guess for the next two
years and I love it moving on to the
second thing that I bought from this
haul is this little guy tada
so I'm not sure if you can tell but this
is actually a pencil case and it's super
super thin this is also from a Japanese
brand called knee okras flat biz koku yo
I'm sorry if I butchered the name but I
loved this pencil case the moment I
walked into the store inside it comes in
gray navy blue and also I believe red
one of the things I hate about some of
the pencil case is when you have a lot
of stationery in your pencil case you
have to like scramble through them and
it makes a lot of noise and everybody
hears that you're looking for pens I can
just simply and elegantly and quietly
pick the Pens that I want and that's it
and another thing that's good about this
is because it stands so it doesn't take
up a lot of your space sometimes if you
go to school
you know the tables aren't really that
spacious so it would be really nice if
you can just set it on the corner and
you have more space to do whatever it is
that you're doing be it reading or
taking notes I think this just is a
fantastic design and I really like it
now the next thing that I want to share
with you that is highly talked about on
the Internet are these now these are the
mild liner I usually don't like to use
highlighters because I feel like every
time when you highlight something is so
bright that after like five or ten
minutes of reading it just kind of hurts
your eyes so I usually go with crayons
like yellow color crayons instead but
one time my students recommended these
to me and once I use them I fell in love
immediately
now these colors they come in pastels
and normal colors but what they do is
they tone down the colors a lot so it's
not
flourescent that it kind of shines into
your eyes too much and these are very
cute and they make your paper pop up and
not in a way that shines too much so if
you're a person that likes to highlight
your reading materials your handouts you
definitely want to check these out love
these okay so as you can see here you
might be a little bit disappointed with
the colors because I'm not a person that
likes to write with a gazillion
different colors so what I like to do is
I like to write with blue and black and
then use highlighters such as these
colorful highlighters and then brighten
up my hold handout or my notes so I'm
gonna share with you the Pens that I
think are super super great for writing
now the first thing that I want to share
with you guys are these babies these are
the pilot FriXion pens
now these pens you are erasable pens and
what you can do is you can erase them
from the top tip here it's I think it's
erased by friction and these are super
great because they're very creamy and
after you write and you make a mistake
you want to erase it they do a really
good job with erasing now before you
know the older versions if you use those
erasable pens they tend to not be able
to be erased really cleanly so what
happened is you end up with very dirty
paper but this is not so for these pens
so I find that if you're taking notes or
if you're simply drawing or writing
letters and you don't want to mess up
your paper by using whiteout or
correction tape then these are great and
if you go to school and you know you're
not taking a test on that day and you
bring these pen you don't have you even
have to bring correction tape you could
just bring the Pens that you need and
these come in gazillion different colors
if you're a person that likes different
colored pens then you can also check
these out they will cater to whatever
you like best erasable pens out there
super easy to write with now the second
pen that I want to share with you guys
that I bought is from the same series
it's also from pilot and it's also the
friction ball pen series but this is a
three-in-one erasable pen now sometimes
I get a bit lazy and I don't want to
bring so many pens to school so what I
like to do is I have to find those three
and
or 401 pins I would just spring one and
that just lessens the weight that I need
to carry all over to school one is
essentially the same with these two
babies it's just that they're three and
one so if you're okay with a pen looking
slightly chubby then this one is
definitely one of those alternatives
that you can consider so that's that oh
and also it comes with a lot of
different colors as well so there's fine
pen I believe and there's also bold and
also the colors come in I believe pink
green gray silver and there's this
high-end version where they replace the
the handle part with wood like real wood
so it gets fancier now the next one that
I want to share with you is very similar
to this three-in-one pen is this one
it's called the Jetstream three now this
is extremely fine this is point 38 in
Asia we tend to use the numbers to
define how thin or how bold these pens
are if you like to write really small
alphabets and letters and this is
definitely a very good pen for you but
one of the things is that this is not an
erasable pen so you will definitely need
a correctional tape or whiteout with you
but you need one trust me the next one
that I want to talk about are these
babies now they're from the same series
and as you can see from the amount that
I bought these I swear by as well so
they come in fine bold and super bold
now these pens they look super ordinary
they even look cheap somehow and they
are actually they're about half a dollar
per piece if I set these glide like
butter I would say these glide like
cream so if you run English with them it
would be like a heavenly experience for
me they just the grip is great like
there's this gripping right here and
it's I think it's like a triangular grip
so it makes it very easy for you to hold
the pen and the second thing is that
when you write it the ballpoint just
works so perfectly that it you know you
just don't want to stop writing that's
all I can say it's awesome and I also
bought this huge stack of replaceable
ink just in case I run out so that I'll
have enough to last me say a year or two
in
so that's how much I love these pens so
you definitely want to check these out
now the second thing that I want to
share with you guys is this little baby
right here I think it's very interesting
I also found this out from one of my
students so this is a staple list
stapler so what it does is you don't
need to actually put in the metal staple
pieces what you can do is you could just
fit in paper right here and then click
what it does it it punctures a little
hole in and it kind of folds it for you
and it sticks to the paper itself now I
see a downside as is it's very bulky so
you probably can't bring this to school
but if you're working at home I think
this is a very good environmentally
friendly product that you want to have
one the next thing that I bought is this
one so this is a correctional tape what
I wanted to show you guys is that if you
buy this in Asia it often comes with
like a special packet where they give
you like little gifts and for this
packet that gave me this tape thingy
it's more like a correctional tape of
what comes out of it is tape you're in
Asia definitely try to find those
special edition packets where they give
you free stuff now the next thing that I
bought is this one this is a basic
fountain pen now this one is actually
not as expensive I got people suggesting
that I bring one over to Toronto so I
can try to practice a little bit on but
because I've never tried it before I
also bought this book which is something
that I find really interesting it's a
calligraphy practice there are cursive
practice sheets for you to practice with
your fountain pen and the papers are
just is so beautiful and they give you
lined paper as well there is this
sticker part where you could use if
you're done practicing and you just want
to make your own stickers it's also very
cool so yeah if you're looking for a
practice book for calligraphy you can
look this up online I also bought ink so
this is something that you would
probably need as well if you're buying a
fountain pen and they're not as
expensive as I thought they would be so
these are about one and a half dollar
USD dollars so yeah not as expensive now
the next product that I want to share
with you guys is this one it's called a
pen cut in Japan they have made these
tiny little scissors that you can fold
up and put a cap on and
exactly like a pen but one of the things
about these is that sometimes they're a
little hard to use because they're so
small and the way their design is just
convenient for you to bring out but not
as convenient for you to handle but this
is a newer design where they put on two
little straps on the side so you can
easily use your fingers to separate the
handlebars and then press them together
I also adore the color this is around 18
USD dollars but I feel like the quality
itself is really fine
so I would say that it's so worthy by
moving on to the next item we have here
is these little duties so this is called
a pallet Demi clip now what you can do
is it's more like a reusable bookmark
and the cool thing about these is that
you are able to write little notes
telling you like why you're highlighting
this these pages and after you write
them on you can also erase the words so
I think these are really cool you won't
need to buy those sticky notes anymore
you can just reuse these which are more
environmentally friendly I believe as
well and I love the colors I believe
that they come in different color to
come in orange yellow pink green and
nude colors these might be a very good
alternative for you to try out now the
next thing that I want to share with you
guys is this baby so this is something I
also picked up from the stationery store
it's called the reusable pocket straw by
soku so what you can do is you kind of
adjust the length according to whatever
cup size you're using at the moment and
what's cool about it is that it has a
silicone tip so when you're using it
theoretically would be a lot more comfy
than you using like a normal stainless
steel straw what I appreciate the most
is the fact that it is adjustable so if
you are drinking a small cup of coffee
or if you're using a gigantic up this
will cater to your needs but it would be
small enough for you to fit into
whatever size bag that you have so if
you're going out on a date night and you
only want to bring a small little bag
and this will still fit into that bag
and you will have your straw whenever
you need it next thing I want to show
you guys is this little pouch that I
also got and this is more of a text
pouch and there's this orange right here
that instantly appeal to me so
in the inside of the pouch is really
interesting it's very practical they
have all these little scrunchy parts
where you could fit in all of your wires
your strings your charger and there's
also the small compartments down here
where you can fit your memory sticks
your USB and whatnot and there's the
zipper bag right here if you want to fit
in other little thingies you can fit
that in they have slightly bigger
compartments where you could actually
put your hard drives any other thingies
in here so this would easily fit into my
backpack if you're feeling like you're
an organized girl or boy this one
definitely give it a try are these now I
just got a little coffee on them this is
actually stickers now I am a sticker
hoarder because sometimes when I teach
English I find that stickers motivate
children a lot and these stickers I use
as well they're called forest friends
books of stickers and there's ten
stickers on each sheet so these are like
really really cute paper textured
stickers and they also come with like
little labels so if you have any cute
notebooks that would you would like to
write your name on and then these would
also come in handy now the next thing
that I want to share with you guys let
me see are these little scrunchie now
this is not stationary but I thought
they look fun so I'm gonna give it a try
and maybe if you guys are interested I
might update you on whether they work or
not so I don't dye my hair and I don't
perm my hair I want to keep them healthy
but at the same time I want to sometimes
style up my hair a little bit so I try
to use different methods to curl up my
hair I saw these in the store and
they're actually a little scrunchie that
you can use during the night time you
can open them and then curl your hair up
and go to bed or I don't know do other
stuff and then later after an hour to
and you take them off and then they
become curly and they look very easy to
use so I'm definitely looking forward in
trying these out okay so that is about
it for my stationery haul but there's
this one other thing that I wanted to
ask your guys opinion on and that is I
actually went to Royal Copenhagen last
week before I'm leaving the country and
I did a mini haul on plates and cups
that I really wanted to bring over to
Toronto
so I'm not sure if you guys are
interested in another video on this if
you are leave a comment down below and
let me know and if there's enough people
that are interested I would definitely
like to make another video showing you
guys the exquisite pieces that they sell
that are my ultimate favorite and my
family's favorite as well so I hope you
guys liked today's stationary haul
I certainly had a wonderful time making
this video I'll see you soon have a
great week guys bye turning up the
volume on the radio
