Spring Cleaning

It's spring cleaning day.

Well, for today it was only applied to my own 'happy place'. There were so many books that I've accumulated since secondary school, so my room was strewn with it. When there's books, of course dust will settle in and caused yours truly to sneeze like there was no tomorrow during the cleaning. By noon, my voice was so messed up that I started to sound more like a boy who just reached puberty -_-;

Other than books, there were also my bro's damaged PS joysticks which he conveniently dumped into my already full room. Not forgetting my sister's old college stuff, my old notes, souveniers, gifts, magazines, damaged motherboards, DVDs, VCDs, shoe boxes - I honestly don't know why I still had those @_@

One thing about spring cleaning I found the things that I thought was lost for good. There were my class pictures, some books that I thought was missing, my primary school report card, my primary school student file and loads of other things that I've been searching for ages. Guess I had it coming, huh? *_*

Finished dispensing with all useless and needless stuff, I went cleaning my books. Yeah you got that right, cleaning it with damp cloth. One thing about using mosquito coils at night, it caused staining on the books. Some of the stains were easy to be rid off - on plastic covered books that is but on uncovered book, by golly it took a long time to get it clean. Then the arranging part comes which caused me a headache. I know I lost a lot of my Christopher Pike's, a few of Judith Mcnaught's, a James Patterson's which I guess were kind of a blessing in disguise because I run out of place for it. Though I still need to spare a space for the last Harry Potter book that will be released in July -_-;

Now it's no longer an eyesore... that much ^_^;

The cleaning ended at about 4 and boy I was beat. I need tissues, ACCHOOO!!!
