The Clearout!

Crow92

Has anyone else done the dreaded clearout yet?

It has taken me 3 hours to shift to everything and the green bin which was empty is basically full. Only saving my french notes for next year.

Even if i gotta repeat I don't care, they're gone and all now:D

Probably at least 2000-3000 pages, quite shocking actually how many sheets to have.

Feel's nice and refreshing to have empty free space in a newly cleaned room

Exactly the same as me. Sheets, books, notes copies and exam papers everywhere. I just threw out all the notes and put the textbooks up on the shelves. So good to throw out all the notes knowing you are finished forever!

I'll be donating all my books to the Gregnamanagh Book Throwing Festival..

Took me only about an hour on Tuesday as I was throwing away notes the night after I finish each of my exams. Feels great to have a clean and empty desk for once.

Sure just give them to someone? anyone in a year younger than you?? or the teacher? they could photocopy them if they're legible for their class??

Ah what a waste! You guys should've donated your notes to some 5th Years :P
I'm sure they'd be of some use!

Somebody else's notes aren't great to be honest. The best notes are always your own, the ones you write out.
Of course having some inspiration is no harm!

my notes are from a teacher like economics we dont use the book so she gives us notes

My notes and books are still all scattered around the house. I don't want to risk throwing them all out on the off chance that I have to repeat next year. As soon as I get my results though everything will be gone

I threw all of my sheets out and put my books, hardbacks and folders in the top of my wardrobe. My lose sheets filled up a green bin :eek: Absolute madness to see how many things I actually had.

Im still cleaning out notes, nearly a week after Ive finished!! I threw out all of my exam papers, and all of my sheets, including my years worth of grind notes! If i end up repeating, i wont be buying any new books, examinations.ie all the way :P
I recycled everything, but all my books to be sold will be sold soon hopefully!
I filled up 3 black bags to the brim with sheets, copies and books.... One of them started ripping as I brought it downstairs
