Today, was the designated "start to pack" day. So I had to go through the boxes which I have and try to figure out which to toss and which to keep. This is my seventh time to move...yes...from Sta. Mesa to Katipunan (1), Katipunan to Esteban Abada (2), Esteban Abada to Project 2 (3), Project 2 to Marikina (4), Marikina to Esteban Abada (5), Esteban Abada to Las Pinas (6) and now from Las Pinas to Cavite (7).
I started with very little to move with...hehehe..probably just clothes, school books, and my novels. Then started getting more stuff until my sisters and I lived together and then we had more stuff. It's amazing how we started with nothing. I remember when we were in Esteban Abada. We hardly had anything. We slept on the floor, we just had mats. For a table, we had just one. It was a table I got from my old landlady after she didn't return my month's rent. I remember when we first got out first TV. We were so happy to finally have a TV and it was placed on the floor. Then my sister got a "family computer" as it was called then. All I know was, I was soo happy to go home for lunch just because I could play our favorite game, "Battle City." There was this one Christmas or was it New Year's when we played for several hours til we finished all levels and went back to Level 1, but it wasn't as easy as the real Level 1. It was a marathon of sorts.
So, now, I had to go through my old books, notes and papers from school. Not to mention papers from work. I ended up with three trash bags full of paper. I've decided to toss my old college notes. From Philosophy to Economics. Heck, I can't even remember what they were about...hehehe...seemed like an alien language especially derivatives. Hmm...but I did know those at one time. But I can't seem to toss my old photocopies...hehehe...yeah right, like I'm going to read them in the near future. So I'm holding on to them for now.
Then there are my notes and photocopies from my Language course. They're a keeper for now. Hehehe, although, again, I don't know when I'm going to need them. It was fun though reading my old tests. Wow, I didn't know I could write like that...ha ha ha.
The last but definitely not the least, papers from my job. I had a lot of old lesson plans, plantilla, worksheets but mostly papers from seminars that we had to attend. The others I tossed, the others I kept and then some, I'm probably going to make notes just so I could access them on my pc if needed. I can't believe I killed those trees. Sorry trees!!!
And I know I'm not going to stop with the 3 trashbags. There'll be more since I have yet to start packing the things in the living room and the storage room.
