I am an ant

Jul 22, 2009 17:39

Every time I move, I cheer myself on with the thought of ants. I think it was a children's book that I read, one part of the story asks the question: which one is stronger, an ant or an elephant? An elephant can rip up a tree, so of course it is stronger, compared to an ant that could carry a small leaf at its best. But, a tree weights only a fraction of the elephant's weight, while a small leaf weights many times that of an ant. Other than absolute strength, which is more impressive?

As I look around my room, I really want to give up. Unfortunately with less than 10 days left, that is not an option. It is that time again, time to take a deep breath and dive in. I've done it twice, and this time will be no different. Divide and conquer, I shall be the ant that succeed in moving its small yet still sizable nest!

I needed to remind myself of all these because of my trip to Goodwill today. I cleaned out two large bags of clothes (didn't use trash bags, I had my large Ikea bags ready) and thinking it's just clothes, I proceeded to walk to Goodwill. -__- Seriously, how could clothes weigh this much??? I am holding off the panic until I see how much more stuff I can get rid of. >_<
