Tuesday Randoms

I did a lot yesterday. At least I seem to think so. I emptied out so much stuff in my room, there's actually.... room. Imagine that. I feel a little bad about piling up more boxes actually... right after my folks decided to put all the random boxes from the garage in the storage. Now I'm going to put more in there. Yeah....

I don't recall the last time I was this relaxed at school. I think it's the weather change, lack of quizzes and homework due, and my coffee. I think it's possible to change my attitude in just one week. But of course it can change back just as quickly. Last week I was complaining about how my life is boring. Today I'm thinking how nice it is I have things to look forward to. I have plans and things to accomplish. I'm so positive today I almost can't stand it. I think it's the weather. Walking to class this morning in the cool spring pre-dawn weather with Foo Fighters in my ear really changes my perspective.

What is morning without coffee...


I'm all for irony... and love to pick up random t-shirts from AE....

It reads, "You Caught Me at a Bad Time ... I'm Awake" I'm generally a morning person really... that is if I can wake myself up. Which I have been for the last few days amazingly enough, with the time change and all. I like wearing this shirt to sleep. The other one I have is "I'm Not A Morning Person". I wear that one at my 7:30 am class.

I know I talk about this a lot, it doesn't seem very important but it's a big deal to me. My whole life is drown by a big pile of crap. It's incredibly satisfying to throw things away and put things into boxes. If I can centralize my stuff and only keep only the things I need on hand I'd be a lot happier. With that in mind, I packed away 6 boxes of stuff yesterday. Storage totes. I also threw away 2 bags of magazines, and 6 bags of trash mainly consisting of old school papers and product packing (meaning game boxes). I put more DVDs, CDs, and games into the black storage boxes, then put all 9 of them (so far) to my top shelf.


These things are insanely amazing. They cost me so little that I feel like I'm cheating. I love my discount. haha. Another thing I used yesterday was something I never considered before.

I got a pack of 2 Bankers Box at Target for $4.99. I got some folders to go with it too. My intention was to clear out some of my old bills and paperworks I have to keep, from my room. I then discovered how well they fit on my shelf... I got 4 more of those, and reorganized my bookshelf. Now I can find all my filler paper, legal pads and such. I even found 2 more packages of scantron. I think that's my whole goal now... package up my room so I can actually find things. It feels so strange to have room. I also moved the clutter in front of my books. I find that already sorted and organized. How good is that.

For those of you who doesn't believe in service plans.... I got myself a new green shuffle yesterday.

Isn't it pretty? I don't know what I'm going to use it for... considering I have a 60GB black iPod and a white 1st Gen Nano. I'm planning on getting my old 15GB 3rd gen back and send it to service. I'm hoping they'll junk it out and I can just get myself a 80GB video.

I'm all for irony. Anybody who has a sense of humor needs to teach an ethics class in here...

  2. Ok ok.... you were right about the paper storage being on sale last week. Didn't get it, but I did a little math. If I use the 40% coupon when it's regular price then I save another 2 bucks. yay! I'll get it next week... lol.

    Thanks for all the links! I'll put them up on my page soon... so I can look at them when I'm in class. This is gonna be fuuuuun!

    I took the pictures at the Union. Right under the stairs in my lair. haha

    I'm going to spend some time today to actually MOVE those boxes into the garage... It's hard to not run into them when I get up in the morning... =P

    Yes... the shuffle is tiny... I'll take a scale picture of it soon. Put it next to my red Swingline or something.
