Treasure and trash...

It is so much fun to go through my family's boxes of trash.
The reason why it is fun...is because they are not boxed up in order.
They are a random mess of trash..my mum scoped from my room and my brother's and my father's.
And end up...each and every box is a ramdom of trash and treasure to be discovered.

One box...I found my long lost Nat King Cole CD in MINT condition.
Very very happy.
I almost wanted to buy a new one in singapore.

Found my uncle's old vinyl records...and guess wat.
I found STYLISTICS!!!!
What a weird infinity I had with Stylistics.

And then...I found some long lost books.
They are everywhere,,anywhere...
and full of surprise.

It runs in the family.
Especially my father, my big brother and me who are the "keeper"
My mum and second brother are "thrower" to keep the balance.

I saw my father reading a filmsy looking book a few day ago...
And he said he bought that when he was 16, he recorded it in his book when he bought it.
Interesting.

But I pissed at the same time.
Becos, some items are in very bad conditions...
Old metal stuff are badly rusty.
Paper stuff..and books turn yellow....or eaten away by bugs..
Cloth and old clothings...turn spotty...and dirty...
Sad...

And I will keep sneezing...if i dun put on my face mask.

Wrap myself up like I am in some virus infected zone..
to clear up the boxes...go thru them one by one..and see what is inside..
It's a pity i really do not have the energy to categorise them properly...too random..
Too MISCELLANEOUS.
The most i can do..is to put them together properly.
And pull out things that I wanted individually...

Anyway...I have yet to come across my own stuff..as I had only been going through my father's and my brother's stuff.

Wait till I attack the boxes in my room
That will be REAL TREASURE HUNTING!

Look forward!
