Declutter.

Transformation of a warzone, to a peaceful utopia. Mission impossible? Not quite. I managed to de-clutter my room today. Took me almost four whole hours to finish the chore. But under every layer of dust I see, are some treasured (note, I said 'some') memories. I found a diary from year 2007, which apparently I wrote the person I like in it, surrounded by hearts, on many different pages. And my handwriting was terrible. JUST TERRIBLE. It's like, fat and squiggly and just all-round ugly compared to my handwriting now. :/ Kinda awkward seeing those heart-shapes. Found lots of stray coins which I gave them a home, in my old piggy bank I found.

Apparently, I attempted so many hobbies, and failed in almost everyone of them. Stamp collecting, yeah obviously that didn't work out. Sketching, in the end my sketches were...I don't know what they were about. And diary-writing. Yeah, that diary lasted for barely 2 weeks.

Packed up so many books, children's books and such, because I've outgrown them, and some of them are still in good shape, so probably donating to a charity/orphanage, or giving to my old Science teacher. Also, I found some antique comics from like, 1974. 37 years old, that's even longer than my age doubled. And there's just so much dust everywhere that I keep sniffling and sneezing the whole time. Found a book Zongxuan gave me for my 7th birthday too. LOL I remember we used to be great friends, and now...uhh, we barely speak. :/ HOW SAD.

I also have like, reference books that I've never touched, let alone do. Such a waste. Oh! And I found my gorgeous old notebook, which I've only used like 4 or 5 pages. HOW SAD AGAIN. Oh the joy and bliss of innocence of reading some of those children's books again. Finally, the mess is undone. I can go to school and outings already! Hurrah (hurrah sounds so...sad, ugh -.-)

Oh, and when I was vacuuming the place. I accidentally sucked up a pair of silk socks which were behind my bed. THEY'RE NOT EVEN MINE. And also two 10cent coins, a measuring tape and A WHOLE LOT OF DUST BUNNIES. I can't even...

Still got lots more of books to get rid of, but some are still awesome. and they fit on the shelf perfectly. A full shelf looks more professional than a shelf with empty slots here and there. I still don't know how a innocent-looking shelf could hide so much crap. Probably in like 2 weeks. The shelf will be full of crap again, and the process begins again. (in like a year.)

ACCOMPLISHMENT! On the second day of holiday. Awesome :D
