If i took my pencil to a place in space without gravity or air resistance and i spun it, would it spin forever?

Science isn't the kind of "circular dynamic" I thought it was. "Why the laws are as they are is a pretty easy question to answer." The statement above really bothers me. Why is C constant? Why does mass distort space-time? ... Experiment tells us what the laws are but experiments don't...
