I seriously need help!!!

[Rebirth Reborn]

I was cleaning my room these days (still cleaning, sorting, everything!) and I stumbled across my year 8, 9 and 10 school papers/notes/exam papers/topic tests papers (You can tell they are all school-related) in a box. I kept them in those boxes coz I know I might wanna 'see' them again. But now that I will move on to college, I don't even think I'd look at them.

A simple decision but yet I have to think much....

Problem is : Should I just dump them? Or just keep it for the next 10 years? (Like I would look at it? I'll never know)

And thanks for reading this.

Well i couldnt decide what to do with my schoolbooks and papers and i just dumped all papers last weekend after having graduated from university 6years ago....lol
Still keeping the books though....

Kepp the books and throw exams and paperworks. You might want to keep some paperworks at the university level, but not anything earlier than that. And even pre-university books, you should eventually get rid of them if not now, later.

My advice is just have a courage to throw them away (anything which you don't use anymore). You'll be buying stuff in your life and you'll live around it. Unless you got a huge storage room or space, you really should learn to throw things away.

i couldn't throw away mine.. i still have my 1-grade textbook (it was more than 10 years ago)..
but i'd definitely recommend dumpening 'em. saves a lot of space actually
if you are going to throw them away - BURN THEM!!! xD

I like to keep most of my things because I like them and they make part of me and my life...
Sometimes, though, I need to clean up a bit,but I'm always reluctant when it comes to throw things away...

[blackrabbit2999]

oh i have an idea, just lay them out on the floor and take a digital photo before throwing them out

i personally still have all the stuff i used in the past

throw it out...I do that with anime I keep them but then I realize that I almost never go back to them. If your 50-50 on keeping or throwing, I'd give them to your parents, I'm sure they'll store it for you.

is that even a question :/
get a bonfire going and throw them in

[Ignis]

like arichidoru and aya said... just burn them. dumping them would be quite a fuss. i said this because i don't like searching for my old papers, it's too much of a bother... so just prune them all

[sdfx]

Here I'd say sort the ones you are fond of say the ones with high scores and keep them for your children to prove your intelligence LOL etc and the crappy ones so wen u get mad you can just burn them!

I have my old school reports and photos that I keep, they don't amount to much; I like to keep them around to preserve memories. Depends on each individual I guess; either you want to let it go and keep it in your memories in your head. Or just keep them taking up space.

i kept mine too, although they aren't very helpful lol but if you're having such a big dilema, i'd keep them if you think you'll regret throwing them away. I mean, you always can choose to throw them away whenever later anyway. if you don't want to keep as much, pick and choose the important stuff to keep =)

[icezdragonz]

if you've had the papers for that long and u haven't had the need to look at them for reference just throw them away. chances are you don't need them anymore and they're just taking up space. personally i keep my text books but stuff like notes i end up throwing away because i never go back to them once i finish with my exams lol.
