One last post from the old place
3am and I'm still packing... I doubt I'll sleep tonight. One last post before I disconnect all the wires on the PC (coz the lorry will be transporting the desk tomorrow and the desk needs to be clear)
And do you realise my Internet is still working??? *is amazed*
I've just gone through all the clothes in my cupboard and chucked out everything S-sized and lots which are M too. In a way it's like saying goodbye to the girl I used to be -- some of those clothes were favourites, which explains why I've hung on to them for so long. Am giving them away to an organisation that works with abused and trafficked women, so hope the recipients will enjoy it :)
Whenever I feel a pang about throwing stuff away, Sze Hui has been my voice of reason... "Even if you do slim down enough to wear those clothes again, there'll be much nicer designs by then!" I don't know what I'd have done without her. She's helped me lots with the packing and stuff while I floated by in an assignment-and-exam-induced haze. I'm emerging from the haze for the weekend, then it's back in the haze for Mon & Tues :P
I'm not sad to say goodbye to the house, but I'll really miss the space. I see this move as symbolic somehow, like embarking on a new phase of life. It's good to throw out the old (things which are hampering you and holding you down) and start anew. As I go through my stuff, I see I have so much junk which I could really do without. There'll never be a better time to get rid of 'em :)
