SweeterThanPi
My face when I found out that someone wanted to collab with me!
but then I lokey started freaking out because WHAT?!
So I would like to thank @SweeterThanPi for being the first company to collab with me and to trust me with your amazing and beautiful products!
SweeterThanPi is a small magazine run by some lovely ladies who intend to change the view of maths. AH HA! But not just maths! They also intend on making maths PRETTY because females are under represented in that department.
Here is what they have said on their webiste {http://www.sweeterthanpi.com/}
SweeterThanPi is an online magazine which inspires the next generation of female leaders in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths). We share study stories from inspirational young ladies in university (or recently graduated) about how Maths has helped them reach their goals. This platform has been created to make maths PRETTY relatable and useful for young people; girls in particular. Females are largely under-represented in Maths related career fields and we want to inspire young girls to consider pursuing such careers. We're starting from the ground up. It's clear that maths has been given a PRETTY bad reputation for being too hard, too boring and having relatively few female role models. We recognize this and turn all maths stereotypes on their head by sharing the study stories of young graduates and uni students who have been impacted by maths in a unique way. We also sell a stylish Study Kit that is so pretty you'll want to study just so you can use it! Maths impacts everyone in someway and we want to demonstrate why studying maths is important and useful in absolutely any industry. Warning! Seeing its usefulness may motivate you to study a little harder.
So in my package I was given their stationery products. This included 6 pencils, 3 paper clips, a weekly planner and a gridded #prettymaths notebook. Now you can imagine what I was like when I received these! For starters I walked out of badminton so I had no energy left so when my mum gave it to me I was like....
{The fact that this is a literally representation of me when it happened is scary! ahahaha}
So I opened it and behold STATIONERY GALORE!
Alright lets get on with it! I should stop fangirling over stationery! {actually, no..never}
THE PENCILS WERE AMAZING! LIKE HONESTLY! They had gold writing inlay undeneath the rubber. Some of them say #prettymaths and others say "Smart. Pretty. Kind" which is amazing and motivational. YAAAAY MOTIVATION!
Personally I don't really like maths, so doing maths and seeing those words made me want to conquer it and throw it in its face. {too agreesive?}
ALSO ALSO ALSO LETS TALK ABOUT THE PAPERCLIPS! THOSE AMAZING GOLD PAPERCLIPS! It was love at first sight when I saw it. I loved the uniqueness of the paperclips. I wouldn't use them for any other subject because I mean.. I don't want to pick my Geography papers think they are Maths notes :D LOOL
They were also some pretty strong paper clips and they didn't snap when I had more than 5 pieces of paper. Believe me, there have been a few paper clips that thought breaking was better than holding my grades together.
The notebooks and weekly planner were also amazing. The quality of the paper was surprisingly good! I honestly didn't expect the paper to be the way it was. It ghosted a little when I used my mildliners but then again so does every other notebook I have. The weekly planner was my favourite though. I loved being able to write everything down for the week and being able to see it all in one glance. However, the cover for the #prettymaths notebook was amazing. I love white marble, so it also deserves to be on my favourites list!
So thats that. I love their account, their story and their motivation behind what they are doing. Check them out on Instagram {@sweeterthanpie} and have a look at some of their posts. Also keep an eye out on their website because they update it with study tips and motivational bits and bobs!!!!
Thank you so much SweeterThanPi for standing by me, motivating me and letting me use some of your products!
Hannah Banana OUT!
