today, i put my childhood away
i stuffed it all into plastic bags, to be given away
and what did i replace it with?
BOOKS!


ahaha, i guess i ought to explain
today, i cleaned my rooM!
like, actual take everything off and whipe everything down cleaning

and today, i got rid of my hundreds of soft toys.
y'know, the ones i said that i would never ever throw away?
yeah well i'm not throwing them away. i'm GIVING them away
giving some other kid a chance to love those awesome cuddly things

i certainly loved them
and they had this special power
to make everything alright again
no matter how horrible things seemed

it's okay, i've kept a few special ones
just in case i need someone to hug in the middle of the night

but in doing so, i have certainly freed up lots of space for my books!
so now i shan't be needing a new bookshelf for quite some time, as i have now almost 2 whole LONG shelves free! but then, knowing me, they'll be full again by july

LOL

that's all i have to say, really
that i've finally put my toys to rest
and effecitvely said g'night to my childhood

i can still be a child, i know
but my room doesn't look like a kid's room anymore
and maybe it's a good thing
maybe it's time for me to grow up
time to grow up and be...strong?

hmmm
i'll think of a word

might let you know later

=)
