Get Organized: A Tribute to Aristotle


     Before I took on the gargantuan task of organizing my computer's desktop, I felt very afraid for the safety of my computer. My lovely clutter will soon be vanquished in the name of Humanities. All of my clickables and nick nacks would be wiped off the face of the planet in a hailstorm of cleanliness and new folders. However, like an episode of Hoarders on A&E, I knew it was time to clean up my mess.  
     During this process, I found myself actually enjoying the work. I sifted throughout all of my folders and tagged each item with either School, Games, Photography, Video, Audio, or The Abyss (Miscellaneous). I even went as far as putting them in organized folders that went inside my user folder! In my flurry of clean-sweeping, I went farther than I expected.
     After all was done within my technological desk, I was glad that I finally did this. Yes, there are pangs of regret and missing my old clutter, but I knew that in the long run, I would thank myself for simplifying my life. I changed my view on organization and this undertaking taught me to streamline things to make everything easier in the long run. Thank you Aristotle for your wonderful philosophies!
