I have a drawer at work where I keep all the notes and cards any student has ever given me.  I taught one of the required courses for our graduate school curriculum for a decade and have been directing a summer program for undergrads for over 10 years, so I have had a chance to get to know lots of great young people really well. It's a complete joy to get those cards and notes.  Many of my former students now have successful careers, are married, have kids and such.  I see some of them at conferences and some send me cards at the holidays.  I save everything - I'm a very sentimental pack rat.  :guitar:

I'm wondering what Wenchie thinks is in her drawer.  :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;

Oh, she's talking about what might be in her kitchen junk drawer!   Spill it Wenchie


Next, we'll divulge what's in our side bed table drawer!    You all go first...   :shy;

Post by: Chris on February 10, 2009, 10:34:01 AM
Side bed drawer would be my computer desk then  ;D
I have a sofa for a bed in my room. Takes less space, easy to keep head proped up (in case of eye bleeds), and back support when laying on the side. I think I would find a Japanese house/apartment very comfortable with the small space.

My desk doesn't have drawers - at least not the computer desk.  I've got one with my sewing machine on it, but I'm not digging thru that - I've been stuck with enough needles already today!
