memories in the closet

[illuxtris]

In an effort to try and find the thousand bucks I talked about in my last entry, I cleaned my closet, got rid of the clothes I never wear (although I still have to work on the other half) and rearranged all the random stuff I keep -- paper bags, bags, some DVDs, the Narnia, Potter and LOTR books, dust (allergies!), aaaaannndddd letters/pictures/

Aww, I can relate to this entry so much. :) I'll go through cleaning binges too, and I end up sitting in the huge pile of memorabilia and go through each one of them carefully, and it usually makes me really nostalgic/sad. I feel the same you do, EW! Clingy girlfriends suck, and I'm ashamed to say that I've totally been one . . . on more than one account. Boo :( And friendships changing is always sad, but I'll look to the bright side and realize that I have so many good friendships in the present, or think of the ones to come. And it's just, a better self fulfilling prophecy if you make it a good one, you know? Don't dwell on the past and remember that everything happens for a reason

Don't dwell on the past and remember that everything happens for a reason.
Thanks. :) I know that but sometimes we tend to forget, and it's always nice to be reminded of it. :D It's just that she's Christian like me, and UGH. I have no love for that girl who broke our friendship (although I'm also to blame).

OMG BSB! Total fan. I forgot to mention I have found this manila envelope during my cleaning that was full of BSB posters that I got from magazines, etc. :D I have ALL their albums, except for their latter ones (I think the Best Of thing and the latest). The friend I was talking about actually called me up on my phone, thinking I went on their concert here during the 'Never Gone' tour but I had no time (and was broke)! She was there, true BSB fan that she is. :D

One of the things I hated in highschool was how I was afraid to fully unleash myself. I was holding back on some things, that's why I became too outspoken when I was in univ. :D

[unageing]

ack! clingy girlfriend-itis! yeah I think we all had that at one point. I wouldn't feel too bad about that :) I hope it those are empty ferrero chocolates...

Why do you keep a thousand bucks in your house?
But I recommend looking under your bed...everything I need is under mine :p

[illuxtris]

Yep, they're empty. :P I'm not sure if I ate them all, or if my mom and sister nabbed some while they were in the fridge. :D

Under the bed? I don't keep stuff under my bed, but OMG. *crosses fingers* I sometimes/usually forget where I keep stuff, so hopefully I did keep it there! I'll look later, eeee.

*feels uber nostalgic*

..I need tea after reading something like that.

[illuxtris]

Aww tea! We have a bottle of pure (well, apparently pure) honey here, and I want to try it with tea! Except we only have that horrid Earl Grey Green Tea hybrid, and I don't want to try that again. =\ There were these small boxes of tea from the grocery store we usually shop in, but there was no English Breakfast! Urrggghhh. The tea gods seem to be against me.

Man.

I'll be like this in a few years. =/ I don't know...but I'm enjoying it as best as I can, you know?

[illuxtris]

Mmm. *nod* Hey, some people say highschool in the best period in their lives (I disagree though) and I hope you had a great time with yours too! I'm just bad with coping because I'm all about suppressing the memories, and the more I do it, the more I'm reminded of them until I forgot that I did have fun. :D

So yeah, enjoy the last days and get good memories! :P

Going through old letters is good experience. I have to be careful though, because I am the type that compulsively throws away letters and other memories from people I am no longer friendly with, or things that give me bad memories.

I hope you find your money!!!

LOL. The only time I felt like doing that was when I broke up with my now ex, but I remember when I gave away all these stuff another guy gave me and now I regret I don't have memories of him. I'm sure it's going to be a laugh when, I dunno, 5 years from now, I look at them again with a really close friend. :D Maybe you'll be that person, you never know. :D

I hope I find that money too!
