"Clean-up Ops" Over the Weekend

Over the weekend...decided to start a clean-up operation. Haahaa, don't be mistaken, i don't really mean a real life operation - what i've done was to start going through my cupboards and stuff (and i really do mean start, i'm not quite done with it yet).

Ever since i moved into the current flat i'm living in (about 3 to 4 years back), i've yet to do any major sorting or cleaning up of sort. Not to mention the fact, i've not done anything that you might term as spring cleaning even before i move into my new home. Guess it's about jolly good time to do so... (_ _")

So far, i've cleared about two layers of my cupboards and only when i did so, i realised that i've kept so much unnecessary stuff with me, things like lecture notes dated all the way back to my poly days, greeting cards from insurance agents, invitation cards for some weddings that i've attended way back in time and some gifts from people that have been lying around unused.

To my pleasant surprise, my mum passed me a recycling bag - at least some good will come out of all these stuff esp the papers. You can either send them for recycling or you can just dump them like any other rubbish and they end up being incinerated - complete waste if you ask me and not to mention the fact, the pollution caused from burning it.

It was quite an adventure going through all those stuff. Stuff that jolted memories of yesterday and made me smile at the reflection on how much people around me and i have changed. Of course, everything in this conditioned world is changing even as i speak of it, nothing ever stays the same but sometimes the change is so gradual and subtle that we don't realise it even in the event of going through it.

Of course, i did more than cleaning up during the weekend. Did some photo editing on sat nite and went for my usual skate workout at east coast park on sunday afternoon (got to thank MM for starting me on this new sport! quite enjoyable actually and maybe you guys out there can give it a try too).
