When I Was Just A Little Boy 2

The Pencil Box

The pencil box plays a crucial role in the life of a child. It contains all the important stuff for life, e.g. the ink rubber, bottle caps, marbles etc. and of course pencils for school work but nobody really cares right.

They are usually classified into 2 types. One is the “plain” type. I actually still a similar one till this day (but it was one I bought before I started JC, so it’s 10 years old)

Another one, in all its awesomeness, is what I call the transformer-autobot-city-pencil-box, which looks like this (there are more complicated ones):

This is important, as it is commonly used as the obstacle for the game described in the previous post, “Shooting Erasers“. When combined, it also serves as the inspiration for all the architects and civil engineers wannabe, because of its sheer awesomeness – see how that compartment and shift in and out like a turret or see how bombs (pencils) can be fired etc.
