I was actually a little surprised by what I found I had. In my mind I always visualize the possessions that are most important to me as my only possessions. If I were asked randomly on the street what I owned I would immediately list possessions such as my skis and gear, as well as my laptop and other toys. I might even mention some of my bigger “toys” that I left at home. In reality there are a lot of necessities to comfortable modern life that make up almost half of my junk in my room. Laundry detergent and silverware for example are objects that I rarely think of although frequently use (no I don’t rank my social class by the number of dinner guests I can host in my dorm room.) Another thing that surprised my was that I had forgotten about my meds, Excedrin and Sudafed. I take both regularly to prevent effort migraines. They are an absolutely crucial part of my life. However I hadn’t even considered listing them until after class today. I guess people really define themselves on a group of possessions vital to their image. I base my self on ski gear and colonists defined themselves relative to their fork supply.
