@Wildfire: Yep I'll keep that in mind :3

Good morning! How's everyone doing today?




@Wildfire: Ah I think you perfectly described what I've been feeling! I remember hearing a similar thing somewhere before...
And yes thanks! I'm not honestly feeling it right now (maybe due to exhaustion) but this is something I need to get used to again.




@Wildfire: Yes it is a relief but if I'm honest, I do feel weird about it. I supposed is been a long time since I live in such a tidy place.
Like is hard to kind of relax right now after two weeks of decluttering and cleaning this apartment.




@Totalanimefan: Alright see you ouo)/




@Totalanimefan: I don't have netflix anymore x'D
But yep I feel like watching a movie or something later~




@Wildfire: It was freaking stressful not gonna lie TwT
But yes is a good direction and I'm really proud of my mom of throwing a lot of stuff away. There's still some bags that we are giving away to some friends and is being stored in the garage but yep. I can finally relax =w=




@Totalanimefan: Yeah I like our landlord, he's very chill and very patient and understanding to us, especially when it comes to my mother's hoarding. Mhm is a very easy approach when it comes to organizing and throwing stuff away so I definitely try this method more in the future.




@Wildfire: I tried to mentioned it to my mom but she... was too emotional to listen at the time. But I tried the technique to myself and it worked well for me and it was nice to go through my old stuff. It was very nostalgic :3






@Totalanimefan: Thanks for the advice but we manage to clean the whole apartment (not completely but an okay enough with our landlord) There's still some stuff I need to clean and we're not exactly out of the woods yet. I tried the technique to myself though while I was going through some stuff in my room and it worked well for me. I've thrown a lot of stuff away ^^




@Wildfire: Hmm, I'm not 100% sure it will work with my mom. Her motto is that she doesn't like to throw away items if still find useful and is willing to give it away to people that may needs it rather than throwing it away. Which is something she doesn't put enough action behind it except now I guess.

But is something I'm willing to give it a try for myself next time. Although I already cleaned out my closet but I still got some items in my brothers room (it used to be our room) that I need to look into tomorrow.




@Wildfire: I'm hoping for the best also and thank you :)








@Totalanimefan: Yeah I slip that way many times before and even now but not so much anymore. Especially now actually, I'm very much on that mood and trying to calm myself at the moment. Yeah I read a little bit of her bio and is a nice approach and may give it a shot someday.

@Aisukohi: That's true. Sometimes or most of the time, expensive brands doesn't always mean better. Although I'm talking more on the fashion side of things rather than everyday essentials. But maybe it can be the same? (no clue)

And dollar store foods are not bad, heck most of them you'll find in walmart but just cheaper or most likely in smaller size. I love buying snacks there ^^




@Aisukohi: Ooh interesting. Yeah my dad made his own recipe out one of those Heinz tomato canned beans and it was honestly one of my favourite dishes from him.

@Totalanimefan: Yeah I'm very aware of that. My brother done a similar thing before and it was ugly, but is very hard to be patient with her and I'm very exhausted with this. I literally lost my cool on her two days ago. At this point I'm just stepping back for idk how long. But I think she finally slowly getting it and has thrown quite a lot of stuff away.

And Marie Kondo's method? Never heard of it, I think I'll search it up.




@Aisukohi: I feel ya
I'll probably survive over on canned foods or instant noodles if I live by myself lmao
