Pack Rat

Khumar · Nov 7th, 2009, 04:29 AM

Def: --noun
a person who collects, saves, or hoards useless small items.

Are you one? Is your house or room littered with tiny knick-knacks that you just can't seem to get rid of?
Maybe you're keeping them for sentimental reasons. You know, the time when you went to that place, and it was so much fun you kept the entry ticket/sand/seashell/paper cup/etc.
Or maybe you just don't want to get rid of it because you never know, you might need that ice-lolly stick/piece of paper/multicolored pen from 2001/rubber band collection

Also, are you an e-pack rat? Is you computer filled with old doc and text files, images, movie and music clips that just accumulate after years of usage of the same equipment?

So, let's hear it...are you?

I'll confess, I'm one. My things accumulate after a while, and then I have to sort through them, and decide what I want to throw out. It's so much masla!

And oh my laptop, let's not even go there shall we? I'm cleaning out just my received files folder and I have so much stuff there, it's like why do i even keep it?

once i saw a documentary about "garboholics" and its a kinda mental disorder and i saw the patients of this order. they are soo obsessed to keep everything from receipts to pencil covers and their whole house is littered with articles he/she saved for years. there wasw this lady who saved everything and was extremely organized too. she had categorized all the items and put them in storage bioxes and stacked them all upto the ceiling in all of her rooms.

thanks to Allah, i never save unnecessary things and i'm a very neat N clean person

I always try to keep all my things in order and don't stock useless items. But yes! I have certain things that I'd never wish to get rid of... sentimental reasons obviously!
