Juli now: I was just thinking, if I was a muggle-born
witch, will I complain about the quills? Probably not,
there'd be a lot of things I'd miss more: the
internet, clothes (a nice designer dress), a portable
CD player, cable TV. So many things I just love about
the muggle world, I'm not saying there're many things
to do at the WW and many more things to do for fun,
but honestly, owl mail, as extremely cool as it is, is
never as fast as email. But I would change my life in
a heartbeat to be a member of the witch world.

Back to quills, I agree with Mimbeltonia, they must
have some magic in them to make them work better than
muggle quills. I would feel silly taking notes in my
Potions class with a regular pen, it just doesn't
feel right, just like wearing jeans under the robes.
Besides, I don't think the robes are anything like a
judge's, in GoF Fleur says she won't be able to fit in
her gown, which means they aren't so wide as to make
you feel like a nun, they must have some shape.

Juli wondering why she's thought so much about wizard clothes
