Recap: Lists

For those of you who likes data and lists:

1. Account of stuff found inside my backpack at the end of the year, after a period of neglect (stuff that I stuck in there for moving out not included.)

-1 hardcover notebook, worn at edges
-programme from the IS Shakespearian play
-1 old chem. test, folded lengthwise
-1 agenda, with various papers and post-its stuck inside
-1 pair chem. goggles
-1 camera, with bag
-1 glasses case with glasses wiper inside, much neglected
-ti 83 calculator, much neglected (used only twice this year, and only for chem. because our teacher is picky and won’t let us make the simplification that the book uses)
-1 small green memo book (yep, same one from last year), in a VERY abused condition with only 6 pages left
-1 Jason Webley & Hillstomp entertainment flyer, from a very insistent solicitor in front of the bookstore, very crumpled

-1 empty bag of pocket pack tissues, left over from my flu-days
-7 paper cranes, crumpled almost beyond recognition
-1 receipt for sweatshirt, as a result of the continuing credit-card crises which will take too long to explain here
-1 penny, stuck to Uhu
-glasses
-ticket stub from YBCA galleries in San Francisco, from IS field trip
-business card from the manager of next year’s apartment, with pen & pencil marks and a huge dent in the middle of the card
-3 old coughdrops, also left over from flu days
-2 rubber bands
-3 mechanical pencils
-1 pen, found in chem. lecture that I kept because it doesn’t work but has a very interestingly shaped barrel
-1 slip of paper, with email address on it, that I should probably respond to before next Friday
-1 eraser

Winter quarter: 6091.78
Spring quarter: 6128.81

And it goes on from there.
