pencil vs. pen

 

lately i've been having a writing tool battle...pencil vs pen. in high school, i prefered a regular pencil, but when i went to college where they don't care if its pencil or pen, i prefered to write in pen. mostly pretty colored pens :) but recently i decided to give pencil a try and now i don't know which one i like better. i know, a weird topic, but its been bothering me.
pencils make that funny sound on paper, but are easy to change and sketch with. but pens come in pretty colors and write really smooth, but you have to scratch out mistakes messing up the page (unless you use white out but i hate white out- that's a whole other issue). i know...i'm odd.
do you have a favorite or must have writing tool?
