When I first read the prompt for this blogging assignment it was really hard for me to decide what to organize. The reason it was so hard is because I am a neat freak and so is my mom so in my house there really wasn’t much I thought needed 30 -45 minutes of organizing. Then my closet came to mind. This was something I have been trying to organize for a long time but it is simply just to complex, I dread thinking about it.
The moment I opened the closet door I knew it had all started. I really didn’t want to clean out my closet because I know how hard it is for me to get rid of my clothes. I thought that by the end of organizing and cleaning it that I wouldn’t have improved it at all.
As I looked through my clothes I decided to organize my tank tops by colors, put all the long sleeves together, same with my short sleeves, my sweaters, and then my nicer shirts. But while I was doing this I realized there were a lot of clothes I forgot I had or that I haven’t worn in years. It was very hard for me to let go of these clothes. Even though, I could give them to my little sister I just always feel that “I might wear this someday”. But this time around I decided I was going to get rid of all the things I haven’t worn in the last 6 months. Not only did I go through my shirts I went through my pants as well. I found so many pairs I thought I had lost. Even after going through my pants I was able to let go of pants that were once my favorite but don’t fit me anymore.
After organizing and cleaning out my closet I felt refreshed and relived that it was finally done with. I had been dying to do this for a long time now. What I learned from doing this project is that I like to clutter and I am a pack rat. It made me think about how there are probably more things in my room that could use some organizing. Also, next time that I’ m organizing something I’m going to have an open mind to getting rid of unnecessary things. After doing this project my mind felt good and happy because now I don’t have to constantly think about organizing my closet every time I open those doors. I also feel very good and proud because I gave some of the clothes to my sister and the ones she didn’t want I gave to a thrift store near my house.
This project was a very fun and useful project. Thanks Mr. Allen for finally helping me organize my closet.
