Lamp Especially for Study

When I walked into the "study room" I was to share with three others my freshman year, I planned to set down the bedside/desk lamp I'd brought from my own bedroom atop the corner of this desk-on-loan. Well, I actually did set it down (imagine this with a crystal base), though not without observing the type of desk lamp made obvious for this such purpose.

Mom & Dad could see that I was excited about this practical alternative. And with my birthday at the start of the school year, at least this time around, 😊 I made out well because of it. Oftentimes at my birthday I'd get these & these. Although my brother also would, because he needed them just as much as I did. In however many words it took, I'd be gently, parenting-style, informed that it all made sense & I got what I needed, didn't I?

I remember when my brother saw this gift - after I unwrapped it, that is. He took to jealousy stating something about, "How come she got that just because the school year had begun?" Mom & Dad explained what they witnessed on move-in day & how I'd shown an interest in one of these; it only made sense to get one for me with my birthday at the same time. And had he (my brother) taken to something in a similar way around his birthday - he'd also have highly likely received it wrapped up for the occasion. Oh, & mine had the compartments, though none designed to assist with an iPad as iPads hadn't yet been invented. 😂

I don't have many memories of such bliss in my adolescence, though this one surely was a winner of a memory - and, yes, as a birthday too.
