Hey hey all,

Here's an introduction to my series! You can visit it here although it wasn't updating for whatever reason... I'm trying to fix that.

Anyway, this series is a meditation on the various types of objects that people keep with them, or at least the various objects that I have kept throughout my time at Princeton. I am currently a senior and I am a very nostalgic person so the combination of those two is very... emotional. This was kind of a farewell to Princeton for me, I'm probably going to sell a lot of things or keep some, maybe donate, or throw away. Anyway, it just feels weird that all of these things are kind of... going.

So I decided to document everything at my desk. Ideally I would have done my whole room, but that's a bit... much so I did the one part of my room I am currently glued to. I normally don't spend this much time at my desk in my room, but the pandemic has definitely changed a lot of people's habits, including mine. Currently, the desk is where I have lived for the past couple of weeks as I cry myself to sleep while half-heartedly writing my thesis and downing ten (coconut) redbulls. So I currently consider this to be the most important area of my room.

I documented everything, from the important things to the trash, because everything little thing makes up my desk and probably says something about me. Not everything is 'deep', sometime a tack is just a tack, or a skittle is just a skittle, but I think ultimately even the stupid things say something. Please enjoy <3
