My computer. It would have to have network connectivity to the earth of course -so I could use it to dial home and download new games. Not much ponit in playing games on the web as the response times would make it impossible - unless its something like chess. I was going to say a phone (once again - would need one hell of a booster) but the computer could act as a phone. So number 2 has to be my telescope as the views from the moons would be fantastic. No clouds or atmosphere to spoil the view....

I would have a lap top and on that lap top would be books. Lots and lots of books that I could call up and read. I can't think of a second item that I would take. Maybe more books. Maybe some kind of chip with heaps of storage space and I could store more and more books. That would be great. Because when the shuttle flights to and from the colony start, then a new chip with new books could be earily packe dna delivered being so small. Then I could open a bookshop on the moon.....WOW....when is this colony opening?

A good book, and an inflatable goose.

Because humanity basically craves communication I reckon that there would already be a satellite array and computer sharing set up, so there's no need for them - they'd be supplied, along with electronic books and games, by the company. Assuming I was doing this alone, I would need a photo of my family as my first object. The second object would be a necklace - one of a unique pair I would have crafted, with my wife wearing the other so that we would always be touching each other, no matter how far apart.
