Glimpses Of My Messy World

Glimpses Of My Messy World I know, I know all of you are concerned with your Early Action status, and Im just sending pictures of my office. Matt and Ben are doing a far better job than I could of keeping the masses in the know about the EA process. So consider my blog, for now, to be a bit of counter-programming. Behold in Awesome Wonderment the pace from which I execute MIT Admissions Policy. Granted, its less than immaculate but hey, its home away from home. Allow me to give you the grand tour. Picture 1 gives you a great head-on shot of my desk. Its the place that I store my most important papers: If you look at picture 2, you can clearly see my filing system. Its a simple concept. If its important, its on my desk. Out of respect for my ingenious storage system, my colleagues will only leave material for me on my chair. I tell you what, after some papers with loose staples Ive learned to look before I sit: Finally, in picture 3 you can see the place that I store my prized office possessions: Top of bookcase: coffee mugs 1st shelf: oversized binders 2nd shelf: decorations, cds, and gifts from students 3rd 4th shelf: Favorite books including: Savage Inequalities, EgoTrips Big Book of Racism, EgoTrips Rap Lists, Lakota Woman, A Primer for Organizational Behavior, Technology the Dream: Reflections of the Black Experience at MIT, Pedagogy of the Oppressed Bottom shelf: junk that was left by the last occupant of this office. I guess some things never change. As a kid my mom used to yell at me to clean my room. Now its my co-workers yelling at me to clean my office. However, to my credit, there are no strange smells in my office. I cant say the same about my room as a kid. Have a great weekend! Do get some sleep and have some fun!
