My computer is easily the most important thing on my desk for a multitude of reasons, but mainly because I do all of my school work on it. I always have the book I'm currently reading within reach because I like to read whenever I get a chance. I also have my favorite hand cream/chapstick on hand for those emergencies.
I like having photos of me and my friends on my desk to brighten my mood if I'm stuck inside doing homework on a gorgeous day. The flowers are fake, but they add a special sparkle to my desk. I am not so good at keeping plants alive (I used to have an aloe vera plant but I killed it) so I like that these will always look alive. I always have my favorite candle of the moment on my desk to set the mood for long nights of writing and I have a little notebook to track my Pilates progress and daily workouts. I have loads of books waiting to be read and have to remind myself on a daily basis that I have other books to read for class first.
I hope you gained some inspiration for your desk! I'd love to see your desk posts! I think you can really get to know a person through the items on their desk.
