I always seem to forget how much stuff I have. I have more clothing then I really need. I have pictures, books, DVDs, statues, and other random things. I have a dresser, a wash stand, a desk, a stand up mirror, a bed (frame, box spring, and mattress), desk chair, two other wooden chairs (one with cushions), two wire shelving units, a covered clothing rack a coat rack, a small side table, a folding card table, a bike, and two book cases. Yesterday I had to move all of that stuff to a new apartment. Lucky for me I had four really amazing friends to help me. We had everything into the truck then moved into the new apartment in less then four hours.
Of course now I have to organize and unpack it all. Well I got a lot of it unpacked yesterday. I only have to unpack books and and organize my desk. Then I can start decorating. But I've digressed, let me get back to the fact that I have too much stuff. I feel like life should be a whole lot more simple. So I really need all that clothing? Do I really need all of this stuff? There are people out there who don't even have a roof over their head, or food to eat. Even though I am a poor, in American terms, I have a ton more than I need. I guess having to pack and move it all made me realize how lucky I am.
