A day off to sort my life out

I am a hoarder.... And it is now time to get rid of the rubbish I've kept over the years, thinking that I can't throw them away or I'll use them again someday. Who am I kidding...no I won't. How old am I? 13? Keeping hold of my Japanese eraser collection, the hundreds of cheap make up, plastic jewellery, books....they all now need to go.
Have you ever had a massive clear out? Do you know the feeling of when you start clearing and sorting through things and suddenly your room looks like a bombs hit it... You can't walk on the floor, your bed is covered in a mountain so high of clothes that you could ski down it.... And then you hit a point where you don't know what to do with it all and the thought of sorting through it is unbearable so you sit there and procrastinate... That's what I'm doing now.... Playing pointless games on my ipad, thinking of where I can go and take some photos....eating, for the sake of eating to pass time... Texting my friends to tell them what I'm doing... Hmmm what else can I do to buy a few more minutes :)

But once I've got over my procrastinating and get back on it...hopefully my room will be clean and won't be filled with clutter! Another step toward making my life clutter free. In my room and my mind!

I bought some new lenses for my camera this week. I haven't picked up my camera and taken any creative photos for what feels like a few years. That's my next mission. To pick that up again. I can't wait to go out and see what these lenses can do! Going to get on the urban exploring path again and find weird and wonderful places to explore!

On another note, I started helping at the local theatre again. We're rehearsing a play called Violette which was written by the director. It's a very emotional play about a girl during WW2. I'm prompting and photographing :) I was away working for the auditions, but maybe next time I'll find some confidence to actually audition again! Can't wait to see the play come together, and I hope I can capture the emotion in photographs for memories for the cast and to promote the show.

I suppose I'd better get back to de-cluttering..... That's enough procrastinating... For now :)
