Digital Spring Cleaning

So yeah, I've been backing up the files on my laptop and deleting stuff I don't need/use anymore. I like to unclutter my laptop once in awhile. It's hard because it's not that fun going through most of my files.

I also cleaned out my email boxes, deleting emails I don't care for anymore. I sometimes email myself information (websites to help with a class or some useful website) or things to remember to do. Of course, I don't need these things anymore so I delete them. Deleting emails is a chore as well... especially now that Yahoo! Mail is unlimited and Gmail is approaching 3 Gigs of space. And I have so many email accounts... I don't know why I do. I guess I have a lot of random/fun ones, with funny names. I also have ones that I use to sign up for sites I don't care for so I don't care if it gets spammed. So yeah, I went through 4 Yahoo! email accounts and 2 Gmail accounts (I recently registered 3 more Gmail accounts, but those are both empty because nobody knows about them yet). Luckily, I only use 2 Yahoo! and both Gmail accounts frequently so going through those email accounts was tiring. A lot of clicking, deleting, opening emails again to see what the heck it was about, etc. The other 2 Yahoo! accounts were mostly junk emails from sites that I signed up for so I pretty much just checked all the emails and deleted them... it was a breeze.

Ugh, I'm dreading having to do this again in a few months. Maybe I should just try to unclutter my email inboxes everyday or every few days. I know it gets hard when I'm busy/lazy so I just leave emails in my inboxes when I shouldn't. I know that I shouldn't worry with the huge storage capacities, but I would like to keep things organized. I don't want to just keep every silly random email I get just because I can. What am I talking about? I must be tired and going crazy.
