How many people run penwish?
2 but many helpers across the world
Why are you co owner?
Wife>Husband. You'll know that in 10-20 years
chinese?
Yup
Ever come to singapore before?
Hope to soon =p. Love the food and will send my kids there to get educated=p
Favourite food?
Hmmm have to say all assortments of curries
Favourite non asian food?
Chilean SeaBass pan fried (fish steak. it's really fatty and tastes close to red meat)
Favourite asian food?
Curry aside my favorite food right now is pho since i'm trying to defat myself
what made you want to start penwish?
Love pens and pencils! Always have ever since my first rsvp back in elementary school
Do you regret starting penwish?
No since i do enjoy the community and yes since sometimes it is a bit time consuming and dealing with some suppliers can be a pita. I am at a point where i will release new stuff and keep up if i'm not busy and i will scale back and remove stuff if I get too busy with school/work
How many orders do you send out a week?
sometimes less than 5 sometimes more than 30-40 depending on holidays vacations etc etc
How's it like to be our latest mod?
Doesn't feel horribly different. Haven't changed too much from before. I liked the beta mod red better than the light blue tho
How do you feel giving out free pens every month?
It's nice especially for people that can't or haven't ordered before. We also tend to give out extra things in orders sometimes. Sometimes it's on purpose sometimes it's cuz i'm lazy and lost count but i always put more not less =p
I thought you were a banker!
I am a banking analyst. I'm at my office right now=p. Sucky job in terms of hours but pay and ability to be online with 6 lcd screens = win
any children?
....no good god no =p at least not yet. maybe after grad school
Pictures of yourself?
soon. i think eso, lw, and tek i think are only people that have my pic. not sure. maybe i'll take more pix soon was never really a pix person =p
Been to any gatherings?
Illinois = not many spinners.
which spinners have you met in real life?
A few from hkpsa in hk . Definitely hope to do so if vacations or grad school/employment drops me off in a more ps friendly area -

Is penwish.com a good earner?
Good enough for fun and hobby but not enough to sustain a living.
Are you happy?
Hmmm overall I mean I think most people who have internet should be happy. compared to people living in poverty and like haiti yea i'm pretty damn happy. Stressful and tired but happy indeed=p
Favourite Mod?
I like the namae mod (RIP original namae)
Colour combo of ^?
not sure that question
How much do you think your current stock of pens is worth?
Not as much as you may think. We typically try to control inventory so in case things don't sell that well we can try to get other stuff.

Actually i do have a pic at home=p will photo shack it later this evening -

Rarely
Can you help me with AlgII?

Whyd you get the idea of PW?
liked pens could get really rare ones back in day so why not. it's the same with the rest of our tiny businesses. PSing didn't start till eternal of fpsb wanted me to get ps stuff

Any responsibility / job will take time so it affects my life but no it does not get in the way. If it ever truly gets in the way I'd stop
