More decluttering

4 May


I had a lot of unopened letters, statements etc and a small pile of unsorted stuff from the insurance company etc. So i decided to sort it all out. Once and for all. You see, i had it all filed in different files and it was a hassle to recall and look for it. So I figured that it’d be better to put everything in a single file for convenience sake. I threw out a lot of stuff. Next is to sort out my warranty cards and related bills. Put it in order.

It looks so much better now. I am pleased.

I have a friend who scans ALL his bills and keeps digital copies on his harddisks. Efficient! I have another who keeps ALL his bills pasted on separate sheets of paper for reference.

I need to work out something that works for me. Suggestions? Hmnnn…

i’m currently munching on super unhealthy carbo/oily stuff. Nice but really unhealthy.

I deleted more stuff

5 Jan

You know how our browsers have cookies, histories and links from the past?

Well, I took the initiative to delete ALL and start anew. It feels like there’s really no loss somewhat. To let go of the past can sometimes be hard but when done at the right time and properly, it can be quite a release.

There are no links to the past now.

And I threw out a huge bag of rubbish from the room again. The drawers are very organised and tidy. Nothing there that should not be there. Will continue to declutter.

Decluttering again

9 Apr

I spent the night throwing stuff out again. I couldn’t believe the amount of things i’ve accumulated. I am slowing clearing up everything I don’t need. I mean, what’s the use of keeping it if i am no longer going to use it? There’s only so much one person can use. To those who have just moved to their new pads, you know how tough it is to clear out old things.

I think the secret to it is that you just have to be RUTHLESS. Don’t have those “i-may-want-to-use-this-one-day” thought!!     Just ask youself if you are going to use/refer to those things within the next 2 years, if not, then just bin it.

I tell you, you will feel happier and lightened after you have cleared out all those old stuff.

All things related to art

I have finally closed up the portable easel and stored it away. Took me 4 years to close it up. The main one is still open and I’ll continue to use it.

Great christmas pressie from Carrot!!!     Thanks dear!!!!!!    I’ve never seen oil pencils before and I think these are really cool.

My blank wall is finally “filled” up. Brought in two “incomplete” paintings to cover the emptiness. Which I wonder why it took me so long to do all these. Then again, change is needed. The room looks better, more complete but feels more like an art gallery. I hope to finish these two and put in the important body part for the nude.

Whilst decluttering, I came across more photos of he-who-shall-not-be-named. Needless to say, it was all trashed.

* I had my 3rd cuppa cappuccino in 2 weeks. To those who know me well, I am a tea drinker.

Decluttering again

I have sorted out the room again…. why?

Because I had to fit in the softbox. Space in my room (+ house) is a rare commodity just like Singapore. Anyway, I found a good spot for the softbox. Will try it out later on.

Honestly, if not for the earring holder plus a bit of cosmetics and my clothes, the room really doesn’t look like a female’s room. It’s too utilitarian.

I still have some more things to throw out in the room tho. Will have to get back to throwing things out.

Plus giving things away.

I want to change my wardrobe. A total change. At the moment I am finding it quite an expensive project. But out with the old, in with the new. Things are changing for me and this is one of the things which i want to change too. My old clothes reminds me too much of the past too.

Who knows, I may cut my hair short. For now I like it long.
