Spring Cleaning...
Jan. 16th, 2010 03:22 pmI'll say this now. I'm an organized person, really I am... but only when it comes to certain things. All my video files are VERY well labeled. Ask Laruku. Photosets are all in albums, again, labeled. HOWEVER, I've never really been good about keeping my living space neat. No, I don't have wrappers and food all over the place. Nothing is rotting in my kitchen. I'm not THAT kind of messy. It's more clutter than anything else. I have a tendency to just put things down around me.
But, seeing as how people are starting to ask why I never invite anyone into my apartment, I'm (finally) going to do something about it.
FIRST: Clean up the living room.
- Recycle bottles and paper
- Re-organize packing materials and other post office stuffs
- Put books and clothes away... except this is tricky part, seeing how I don't have any more book space, nor
do I own any drawers.
SECOND: Mass dump
- Find out how to set up the pick-up truck
- Bed and crappy couch
- This is somewhat of a debate... I currently have a double bed and it really takes up a TON of space.
But should I really just get rid of it? I mean, I'm not currently using it, but I don't exactly own the futon
I sleep on either.
FINALLY: Buy new furniture
- Shelves. God. I never have enough shelves... Manga, magazines, photos, pamphlets... never enough space.
- Those plastic drawer things for my clothes. Things are currently either hung up or in boxes. The boxes HAVE
TO GO!
- Chair so I can have something to lean against after I get rid of the crappy couch.
- ...Futon, you know, if I decide to get rid of the bed and my neighbor asks for his futon back.
THE INCENTIVES:
- If I manage to do the first part, I'll finally go buy an electronic dictionary.
- If I finish the second, I'll treat myself to a scanner.
I thought about letting one of the incentives be buying that 12 megapixel camera/phone I want, but who am I kidding? I'd probably go buy that anyway. *weak* And if some of you were wondering why there's no incentive for the last task, it's cause I actually like buying that kind of stuff. ^^;
