JustinM EWSIS on 11 Dec 09""Pen spinning is a form of object manipulation that involves the deft manipulation of a writing instrument with one's hands. Although it is often considered a form of self-entertainment, multinational competitions and meetings are sometimes held. This pastime originated in East Asia and is referred to as 'pen mawashi' in Japan." When i read this i wasnt surpised on how pen spinning was used for entertainment because very often during class i spin to pass time and keep my attention away from the boredom. i find that pen spinning helps me not only mentally but physically too because of the amount of stress yoru hands take form constant spinning and the mental fatigue you face when your eyes have to constantly follow the pen while your spinning.
