I feel as if I am forever needing to go to the bookstore to buy some more supplies or random things. Yesterday, I purchased a Minnesota pennant for $12.99, a set of notecards for $12.99 and three composition notebooks for 2.14 each. The pennant was purchased on the request of my high school's counselor and student council advisor. I had TA'ed for her my junior and senior years, and she wanted to have a representation of the U of M in the counseling offices at school. My sister is still in High School and is on the student council, so this request was communicated through her. As my sister has a volleyball tournament in the Cities Area this weekend I will be seeing my family and will pass it on then. The notecards are for the necessary thank you notes that have to be written on occasion. There isn't anything I need them for right now but I want to make sure I have them on hand. The composition notebooks are for classes - I had been taking notes in my sketchbook because I enjoy taking notes on unlined paper, and that way everything I need to record is in one location, but I realized that my sketchbook would soon be full of irrelevant notes and that is not something I want to have to sift through.
The bookstore is the most convenient place to get everything I need. Because it is affiliated with the University, I can be sure they will have the correct supplies that I need for my classes. Also, because I work at the Minneapolis location, going to the bookstore doesn't always require an extra trip to Coffman or the St. Paul Student Center.
