Let's be real here... as much as we all dread cleaning and reorganizing, it's just one of those things that comes along with life. With that being said, I hope I can speak for the majority of us when I say that cleaning out one's closet or bed room isn't always an entirely awful experience. On the other hand, if your cleaning sprees are too painful to talk about then closing this article is probably your best bet. But if you're like me and you find the "fun" in going through old belongings than keep reading. I guarantee you've had some, if not all of these thoughts while cleaning out your closet!
1. Today's the day!
You wake up feeling so productive, like you are ready to take on the mini world you call your bedroom.
2. It won't take that long.
So you thought...
3. One box at a time, no biggie...
Before you know it, one box turns into five and you've trapped yourself in the closet.
4. Ohhh I remember that day!
Nothing like finding old pictures of you and your friends and reminiscing on the good ol' days.
5. I used to look like THAT!?
The pre-puberty, Girl Scout photo album has just surfaced, and well, let's just say the awkward years were rough times!
6. It's already WHAT time!?
Naturally you wasted an hour or more on your phone updating every social media site, Snap Chatting your progress or lack there of, and sending your friends pictures of the old photographs you came across.
7. Eww I worn that?
Funny how our middle school selves used to think we had keen eye for fashion.
8. I used to love that shirt!
Proceeds to waste more time squeezing into old clothes.
9. I don't even know what this is...
A dingle hopper?
10. Okay this is going no where...
It's going on hour three and basically nothing has been accomplished.
11. Ok, now that's nasty!
It's inevitable that in at least one old purse lays a spit out wad of gum crinkled up in a wrapper.
12. I'm hot!
Well duh, closets are stuffy.
13. I'm hungry!
That my friend is the boredom talking.
14. Must. Keep. Folding.
You'll be fully equipped to work in any retail outlet when you're done!
15. I can't do this anymore!
(That's what they all say...)
Feeling inspired by this article? You are oh so very welcome. Think you can conquer the impossible? Find a couple of hours and go through your old stuff, you'll be surprised at the long lost "artifacts" laying around. I recommend bringing snacks and a drink because sooner or later you may end up barricaded behind boxes. Just be carful not to drop any food because that's a whole 'nother' can of worms...literally!
