yes, i definitely am. i have so much junk left around from the years. i've got papers from my junior high days still! and i graduated high school in 2006. so that shows how old they are. i also keep all cards i receive from people. clothes that i got from people even if i don't wear them. balloons that have deflated just because they remind me of things/people. etc. it's pretty bad, haha.

i was going through my office the other day and was cleaning up and the rubbish i threw out was amazing.i think it is important to keep old cards and things as they bring back memories.my daughter went through all her old cards the other day and she had so much fun doing it.it was fun watching her.

No. I'm learning to live with less. I do have a lot of clothes and sometimes it's hard for me to throw some stuff away even though I haven't worn something for years or maybe never wore it. The worst past is that I tend to wear the same clothes over again. But I realize that it's just stuff and I don't want to let stuff control my life or take over my living space. Stuff can turn out to be expensive not only do you waste money buying it, you have to store it, insure it, haul it from place to place if you move, protect it. So the cost of useless stuff can be high.

I moved the day before yesterday,and I found I have kept much "junk",such as the tickets of park,cinema.Also I kept many handbags,expecially the carton bags,such as the kitten,lovely dogs and santa claus,and so on.....Always when I come from the supermarket or gift shop,It is not easy for me to throw the beautiful packing out,I will keep them in the corner,but finally,I have no other choice to thrown them out because of move house.
