20th November 2005
Well I didn't do anything much today...lets see. Er...oh yea!! Today i finally managed to clear out my room. 3 weeks ago, I would never have thought this possible. The textbooks have piled up into a great big mountain of rubbish and the worksheets certainly didn't make my job any easier. Crap and objects long unwanted and useless were discovered and thrown away. Bits and pieces of...shall we say formerly useful objects lay around...you know...stuff like pen caps and er...plugs.
I began just after breakfast, ironically having just watched a show titled "How clean is your home?" My eyes flew to the big pile of books on the table. Armed with a big bag and having a sign board displaying the words "O levels is over!!" in my mind, I began to heave big stacks of papers into the bag. I found several items which sparked several old and hilarious memories (none of which I am able to describe in a way in which you could possibly understand) which was the fun bit...reliving certain days of my primary and early secondary school life. I even kept projects done by my group in pri 3... Old photographs resurfaced and so did several VS yearbooks :P
I took clearing of my room to the next step and decided to challenge the blanket of dust dominating several corners of my room, deciding that today was the day that I end their long planned invasion. A Vacuum cleaner was all I needed and it really was quite satisfying to see streams of dust lying dormant along the walls, behind beds and underneath cupboards disappear. Besides several coughs and chokes, nothing really spectacular happened.
There was also clearing of other things...but really, going into the detail would really drain me of whats left of my remaining energy. Lets just say that my room changed (Not to the extent of unrecognition though). I am amazed to, for the first time, see a cleared study table. Quite a relief, I have to say. I then helped my family set up a christmas tree (Damn it, if you think its too early don't tell me...I KNOW!!) Following that, I wasted away the rest of my day...slacking.
On the whole, this has been a very productive day. (Nah)
