Hello old enemy, suppressed memory...

As I transition out of college and into limbo (the time span after graduation and before occupation--or further schooling), I find myself facing the wall of crap in my old bedroom. I need to filter through and decide what to get rid of, what to store in memory boxes, and what to bring with me when I eventually move out. Its tough. I find my mood slowly sinking as I pick up objects that either remind me of my high school years that I wasn't a fan of, or, mistakes that I made in college that I refused to fully confront (so I threw them in an old bedroom). Now I see notes and diary entries of bad breakups and old loves and old pets and old friends and its a lot to take in. After I'm done I will be raw, but the wound will be clean. I need to decide what important to me. What I want to bring with me to my next chapter.
