Cleaning out my Ipod…

So for the past few weeks, I’ve been slowly cleaning out my music collection, weeding out the songs and CDs that I never listen to, or have no desire to listen to ever again, even if I once liked them (Bohemian Rhapsody, anyone? I’ve reached the limit of how many times that I can ever listen to that song). It’s strange how some of these songs are those that I loved fiercely at one point, but are wearisome these days. Even the first strains of the chords sends me into a flight to change the track.


It’s all part of this grand purge that I’ve been doing for the past few months. Get rid of everything that is just honestly taking up space, and this includes digital space. Do I really want a song that I loathe taking up real estate on my ipod, and necessitating skipping through tracks? Nope, nope, nope.

It feels good to just press those keys and whoosh! It’s out of my life.

What about you? Do you do digital (and physical) purging?

I don't have an Ipod but I can relate to being tired of songs that I used to like alot. I did get rid of some records, cassettes and CDs but I'm holding onto others just in case I change my mind about them someday.

Funny that, I've been purging a lot of stuff lately too. It occurred to me that just because I live in a bigger house doesn't mean I have to fill it with stuff.
