college

College is near.
I start later than most of my friends.
Most of them began packing.
Few have already moved in.
Me? I should probably get started...
I move in Sept 12th. School starts...20th?
Moved once already this summer into my new home.
Got rid of a lot of my belongings then.
Parents moving back to Japan when I go off to college.
Forced to throw away everything I don't take to college.
Everything I own...will be with me in college.
I find it a little depressing.
Keepsakes... I wish i could keep them...
So I can look back 20 - 40 years from now...and see how much I've changed.
But no... I'm not allowed.
Take a picture of it? ...it's still not the same.
The mother asks "when will you ever 'USE' it?"
I say "I wont. I wont use them. They're called childhood keepsakes"
The point is to keep documents that you own now...and store them.
Look back at them years later.
I guess all I can do now is take pictures of them. Save them.
Lets hope my computer doesn't crash.
All memories lost.
I'll back them up into my external hard drive.
I've backed up all of my computer files from the first time I owned a computer.
All the photographs my friends and I spent together.
Those are keepsakes. Photos I can save.
Everything else... lost.
I suggested storage units...or storage in a relatives garage...
none of that worked.
Sorry to sound so gloomy.
Just one of those days...mehh..




out.
