I'm not the only one who hoards memories on paper.

Wendy does it too!  It's a relief to find that there other people who don't just see mounds of old paper as "junk".

That paper contains a plethora of memories good and bad.  And I can laugh at myself and see how much I've changed from being an angsty teenager.

I should post something from one of these sheets... maybe the Quake fanfic?  *groans*  Before I even knew what fanfic was...

Mum just found a heap of my old school/TAFE files and insisted I go through them to see what she could chuck.

Old letters, stories, random stuff I've written. I was just looking at it and squeeing and going "Oh my God!" and thinking how could anyone chuck stuff like that out.

I think I need a LARGE box to keep all that stuff in. A box of memories.

I've kept all my stuff too :)
I'm in the process of scrapbooking it all. I've got letters, notes passed in class, christmas cards and birthday cards and random things heh.

Nope, you're not the only one. I can't seem to throw paper out, either. Got stacks of the stuff.

Until kitties decide to pee on it, grr.

I still have all those files of songlyrics I typed up in highschool with "cool" wordart titles. Some of those songs I haven't heard since highschool and couldn't remember the tune of to save my life. (e.g. the entire tracklisting of frogstomp!)

Dumb question... what time's karaoke start tonight, was it 8?

[gemfyre.livejournal.com]

8 indeed.
Rock up 7:30ish here.

I should be out of the shower by the time you get here (I hope I am!)

Yep, I've still got loads of lyrics and notes and story snippets and all kinds of weird crap.
