Somewhere on my 101 Things list I have stipulated that I must go through five of my notebooks. This evening, I grabbed one from the middle of the Great Stack of Notebooks ™ and I thought that I’d share some excerpts with you. as you can see in the picture above, this notebook appears to date from some point during or right after my first stint at college. Well, during my time at UCD, in any case. The inside cover actually says “Philosophy 108.” I’m thinking that means The Philosophy of Biology, a class that I took for a random science credit after discovering that something was hinkey with my transfer agreement. (I transferred from a Junior college to UCD. Somehow…things got screwed up.)

For the record, I hated The Philosophy of Biology. It was boring. The prof. had never heard of a Punit Square for Heaven’s sake! I would have been better off taking Botany. That would have at least been interesting and full of Latin words.

No…I’m not still annoyed or anything. Well, all of the class notes seem to be gone, so let’s see what’s there instead.

(Oh, and just in case you don’t believe me on the huge stack of Notebooks, please see Exhibit B below. That doesn’t include the couple of boxes full I have, too. In case you were wondering, that bag is my gaming bag. Role Playing Games. You know. Like D&D. My dice live in the tin on the left hand stack. Hush. You already knew I was a geek.)

Apparently the first three pages are a Want List, just like I have here on the blog.

10 Items on the Want list from the mid-90s:

• L.A. Coroner Beach Towel (teal) (Yes. Seriously. And I still don’t have it. Pout.)
• Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes CD (I’m not sure what happened to that…)
• Green Acrylic Paint (I’ve taken drawing and painting. One semester each in High School. Am I any good? Heck no. I still have that paint somewhere.)
• A Ball Gown (No idea why I wanted one of these back then. I sort of have one now…)
• Back scrubber (Hm…still don’t have one.)
• Doctor Who videotapes (…and now I’m trying to get all of the shiny new DVDs to replace them.)
• Friends of Doctor Who Membership (And now I get paid to blog about Doctor Who.)
• A Metal filing cabinet (Check!)
• 80s Compilation CDs (Well…I have one.)
• The Other Crow Soundtrack CD (My brother has it, but I never did get it.)

It would seem that my tastes haven’t changed too much…
