A new blog, a new me! (hopefully haha)

Just an hour before noon, instead of sleeping (which I usually do because of my work sched) I got myself to clean my room, errr, half of it actually. Like a spring cleaning, but during Christmas. You know, where you throw out the stuff that you've kept before 'cause you think it's still important, then you just forget about it and now it is accumulating space?
Yep, I was able to fill two big shopping bags of stuff that I threw away. Surprisingly, I didn't feel sleepy while doing it. It's actually not the cleaning part that I enjoyed, but going through stuff that brings back memories.
I was able to run through a lot while I was sorting them out:
-flyers from the college job fair, where promises of immediate hiring are written. I was able to remenisce the different places I went to just to apply for a job. doing tests and interviews, then hearing from them after 2 months or so.
-my name pin at Shangri-La. This is somewhat one of the...well you can say 'bitter' memories that I had. And I'm not even sure what I'm being bitter about 'cause it's not clear what happened with my training there. Like three days of work then suddenly bye-bye. I did what I can while I was there, I even got tips. But I guess it happened for a reason.I can't see myself working in the hotel anymore.
-drawings. Some were uber funny that I had to keep it.
-sketch of a 'floor plan' for my room. I still want it to be put to work. Well, my room's outline is almost the same, I would just need to buy a new desk, a round rug, pillows and a nice TV.... and a new closet, repaint the walls, have the light fixed, buy a new mirror. Woah, lots of stuff to do.
-application forms of my current company. Remembered how I rushed my documents within two and a half days. When I signed the contract, I was advised that if I wanted to start training ASAP to rush my documents because the next batch would start in a week. And that's what I did, so now I'm here.
-leather gloves. This was lent to me by a college friend. He lent it to me when I tried their gym at their condo, but I guess he forgot about it, so they are still with me.
-copies of my thesis. Remembered the fights that occured because of it. And of what happened during the defense.
-2 Timezone powercards. Those reloadable plastic cards for the arcade. I miss those times when my classmates and I, or Nyl and I (and Almi and RG sometimes) would go there and play air hockey or karaoke, or that horse game that makes your thighs sore.
-movie tickets. It's for Sex and the City and Speed Racer. I collect the tickets as souvenir. And when I enjoy the movie and the people I am with.
-price tag of a polo shirt I bought. I kept it, not just because the tag itself looks good, but because it's one of the polo shirts that I love, and it costed me a lot more than the usual. You see, it's one of those shirts on the stores wherein when you see them, you can't take it off of your mind and you just have to go back there and purchase them. Well, that's what it's about. Really, after going through the other shops I went back there after two hours just to buy it.
-college notes. I don't know why I keep some of them. But there was this one activity in a subject that caught my attention the most. It is one of those that yeah, you know you wrote it, but I weren't able to know until reading three or four sentences. It's one of those that you wouldn't believe you wrote it yourself. It's just that I already forgot about it, and then it popped out of nowhere. (and it's a sensitive topic that involves recordings of conversations.)
-and some other stuff that is somewhat private and can't include here.
It's like the desk alone where I got all these things is like a vault of memories wherein I am the only one who would know about them when I see them. And I didn't throw everything out. I am somewhat sentimental so I kept a whole box and a folder of those that I didn't want to throw out.
The good thing here is my room now is 50% cleaner. And I was able to run through my memories again.
