I finally got around to packing up the majority of my many binders of lesson plans and books I had acquired from my past mentor teachers and putting them in the garage or recycling things. This was a very depressing experience. I chose not to pursue the field that I got my degree in so putting all of these things out of the house made it feel like I had failed when in reality I had just decided to take a different path. However, this didn’t make it any less difficult. Five of the hardest working years of my life now fit in one plastic bin and a large brown box that once held my newly purchased items that I had shipped home from my trip to WDW this year. The only thing I have to show for it is a stiff piece of paper in a sleeve on my shelf.
The good news though, is that I still have it when I need it and eventually when I get my own place it won't be stuffed in a garage. There is a lot of stuff I can use if I ever become a children's librarian so that's a plus as well. AND even better, I now have some space in my room! I still have to go through my closet containers. I have a load of Hello Kitty stuff from childhood that I have no idea what to do with so that automatically takes up a bin. I believe another bin is a lot of stuff from high school that I don't need either. It would be nice to clear one out so I can put purses in it because right now they are just kind of found their way to a random spot somewhere in the house.
At least I can kind of make my room look like an adult lives here. I also really need to change some of the pictures in frames on my wall. I'm pretty sure the earliest is from the middle of junior year of high school...which was almost 7 freaking years ago. Time to get some recent pictures up there!
