I did it! I bought an iPad and an Apple Pencil for christmas last year. I write a lot for my university classes and I didn't like that I often had to cross out things on paper (because I wrote something down wrong) and had to write them again. I was not sure, if an iPad is the right device for me -- but turns out it is. It is awesome. If you make a mistake, you erase it and write it again. Wrong sequence of your sentences? Just move them around. The notes come out awesome.
