Yard Sale!

Today my family and I put together a yard sale trying to get rid of all our junk cluttering our house. We did okay for the day, considering it was overcast, Columbus weekend, and the recession. Because in the past we usually get a lot of customers. But you know what they say "one man's junk is another man's treasure." We pretty much got rid of more than half our junk...and in order to accomplish our goal of "nothing comes back into the house".. we wrapped everything up and dropped it off at the donation center. It felt good to come back into the house with no junk and doing a good deed, while making some money sitting outside all day. I took a couple of clips from today, i am editing it now, and i am planning to show it on monday, at the wang center!
can't wait to see how it comes out!
oh and yesterday I played with Garage band on the mac computer in the computer lab. it was fun.

yard sales can be worth it

over this past weekend I got up early Saturday morning to go shopping for a few things I need around my house. As I was driving I kept seening signs for yard sales and garage sales so I said why the hell not. I'm a broke college student who is always looking for a cheap buy. By the end of the day I came home with a desk chair,filing cabinet, t.v stand, a 2 bar stools all in good condition for under $20. I was estactic at my findings because I would have went to probably Kohls or Walmart or some other store that sold these items and spend over a 100 bucks. it goes to show that sometimes its worth the effort to hunt around a little and reycle used material then always running to buy new.
