I got: Books!
It seems you have a bit of a thing for collecting sources of information such as books, magazines and newspapers. While this partly comes from the idea of not wanting to throw away knowledge, it is cluttering up your life. How often do you really go back and read these things? The information you want is most likely located online and you do not need to take up space in your home to hold onto it.ย
OH HECK NAH! BOOKS ARE MY LIFE!!!
