Every time I go through my stuff to pack for school I am amazed at how many useless things I possess. I never get rid of anything and it's a bit of a problem. Today while looking through my filing cabinet for some books, I found several things . . .


 . . . framed photos that I put away when I ran out of room on my shelves., I don't know when I stopped framing photos, once they were all on facebook they stopped being in frames. 

 . . . The sign that Rissa made me on my 19th birthday 

 . . . Notes that George and I passed each other during rehearsal

 . . . chemistry homework from high school (I can't remember how to do any of that, I think I forgot it all the last day of class)

. . . CDs with my competition music on them 

. . . The program from the Keystone state championship competition (when I was 15) 

. . . My feather duster prop from when I was in "Annie" (when I was 14) 

. . . a folder of pictures I drew when i was around 8 years old and then a collection of sketchbooks from when I was around 16, and one of the prints I made in my art class last semester. 

. . . The Jellyfish beanie baby Zach gave me last year after I told him  about how when I was 6, I wanted to be a jellyfish scientist.

. . . Every program from every play I have seen, or been in since moving to Mississippi

. . . the remainder of the snow powder Hannah bought me my first full winter here (hence being the first winter of my whole life I didn't get actual snow)

They are all little, they're not important but I like them because they remind me of things. Just little moments in life where nothing specific really happened. But for some reason they were just really lovely. These are my favourite moments in life. The ones that are great for no reason at all. And I sometimes like to have physical reminders of them. 

Back to school tomorrow. The adventure continues.
