going digital vs pen-and-paper

as hi-tech as the world has become, there is just something about writing things down. to date: i have a stack of planners collecting dust on a shelf. one per year since 2004 and three just for last year. (it wasn't intentional!) more than planners/organizers, some of them have become part journals as well. i've written down personal thoughts, events and so much more in them.

you'd think that in this day and age, things such as planners/organizers would become obsolete, but for someone like me, that won't be anytime soon. i used to have a pda, my current mobile phone has pda-like capabilities and i currently own an ipad. all these gadgets have not made my planner obsolete in any way. because if you ask me, they're just different.

perhaps i am like what most people are. caught between the digital age and the old-fashioned world. but i don't really mind. both present their own merits. and i get to have both.
