We are all fighting our own battles.
For me, it's a never-ending struggle when it comes to packing my closet and dealing with school (that's a given). Just yesterday I had a horrible evening because I had my time planned out perfectly so I'd be punctual for class but my friend and I ended up waiting 40mins for a bus, which resulted in us being 40mins late for lecture. When I got home, I was starving and still fuming. Naturally, I started packing my closet. Yea it may be a sign of OCD because I'm trying to achieve some sense of perfection in one aspect of my life to make up for a void in another blah blah but damn just being able to indulge my senses with the presence of clothes made me feel tons better.
That is veering slightly off-topic but the point is, packing my closet was tough because of the amount of things I have in there currently. I did a
pictorial tour of my closet before but it has changed a lot since then. Thanks to the WWW and YouTube gurus, I am slowly but surely mastering the art of maintaining a closet that's suited to my needs.
The reason why I am even sharing this is because I feel it's really important to understand what your closet needs VS wants. E.g. for students, clothes that can be considered staples are: tank tops, denim shorts, simple blouses. When I came up with this list a couple months back, I was so determined to buy at least 10 new pairs of denim shorts because it's something I "need" as a student and you can never have too many pairs of shorts, right? However, friends who were already working warned me that the amount of shorts I already own would suffice as I'd be graduating soon and those shorts would be sitting in my closet for the rest of my life, therefore occupying a significant amount of closet space. They were speaking from personal experience.
