Three Silver Paperclip's: A New Hope

Today, as I was waiting in line for food at my schools tuck-shop I stumbled upon 3 silver paperclips and I thought if a man got a house out of 1 red paperclip I could at least get something decent or at least a cool story. All my friends were skeptical but I knew that I could get stuff worth more easily. My first trade was with Keenan how had an old black pen that was running out of ink so I thought I could easily trade a pen at school down the track. With one of the other paperclip I traded it for a bigger paperclip for reasons that escape me. Back with the pen I traded that for two red pens because they thought there was plenty of ink in the pen which I didn’t have to tell him because he didn’t ask. So in one day I gained two pens and a larger paperclip. Things seem to be going well.
