Been another busy week for me loll during that time.. I managed to clean out my closet. This is smth i almost never did cuz my mom occasionally told me that throwing clothes away can be a waste of money. She usually prefers we keep things, just in case. But this time, even she agreed it was needed. My closet was getting quite cluttered up that it felt hard to even find what I was looking for.
Managed to pull out PILES of old t-shirts, leggings, and pajamas; most of em were very old and ratty, others that just don’t fit me anymore nor my preferred themes. There was even a pair of pajama pants I’ve had since I was younger, nearly a decade ago, and they still fit me (I have a small build loll). Some clothes weren’t even mine, some of my oldies were just too big or small... Even my younger sister Mila, wanted to help me out with the process. Some of the clothes that were too small for me fit her perfectly so i offered those to here. The rest; we bagged up to throw away.
Clearing all that shit up makes me feel more comfortable and more open with my surroundings and clothing choices. It makes me realize how much I’ve held onto things out of habit, not cuz they bring me joy. Letting go of the old makes room for the new; both in my closet and in my mind.
And speaking of new.. I opened a new bank account last week (spent 4-5 grueling months trying to reach my goal after being scammed by that fuck who was trying to 'apply me for a kids book job' to revive my old bank), on the same day as the closet clean-out. I can now save and buy clothes that I really choose for myself again, that fit my style, size, and all that. And I have alrr put that into practice; I just ordered three new sets of pajamas from Amazon, simple and cozy ones, since I realized how very few I kept after the clean-out.
Honestly?? felt very good to take control with what i keep or throw away after all that. Hopefully I’ll try to do this more often with other things; highly recc u to do the same ^^
