Thank you for answering my question.

I want to buy a proper mechanical pencil, so I was wondering if someone could recommend a good one.
I’m Japanese. When I looked at the stationery in the photos people posted, I noticed that many of them are commonly sold in stationery stores in Japan, so I decided to ask here.
Up until now, I’ve been using cheap mechanical pencils that cost around 100 yen (about $1), which I got from events or as free gifts. The clicking mechanism doesn’t feel very good, so I’d like to get something better.
However, since I’m a student, I’m looking for something affordable—around 1,000 to 2,000 yen (about $7–12).
I understand that prices may differ between Japan and other countries, so please take the price range I mentioned as just a rough guideline.
源氏物語を半分ぐらい読んだんだが、いまいちピンと来ない。
光源氏が色々な人と結婚するせいか、一つ一つの恋愛に重み感じれないし、読んでいる本が原文をそのまま現代語訳したような文体のせいか、あまり感情移入とか表現に共感できない。
こういう背景知識を知ってたら、もっと楽しめるとかあったら教えてください。
個人的にはもっと楽しく読んでみたい。
その友達は全然悪いやつじゃないんだけど(むしろ、思いやりとか行動力があっていいやつ)、面倒なこととかちょっとうまくいかなかっただけですぐ拗ねる。
そのこと指摘した方がいいのかな?
