整理生活:你需要立马丢掉的10件东西
化妆品和香水
Go through your beauty cabinet and get rid of makeup that's too old or that you don't use. There are programs out there that let you recycle your makeup, such as MAC, which has a program that lets you exchange six empty containers for a new eyeshadow, lip gloss, or lipstick. Kiehl's also has a program that gives you products in exchange for Kiehl's containers. POPSUGAR Beauty has a neat list of when to throw away cosmetics.
翻翻化妆箱,把时间太长或不用的化妆品拿出来。有很多回收化妆品的活动:如MAC就有一个活动,拿六个空罐子就能换到新的眼影膏、唇彩或唇膏;Kiehl’s也有一个活动,你可以拿Kiehl’s的罐子交换产品;Popsugar Beauty有一张清单,简洁说明了何时该扔掉化妆品。
Jewelry
珠宝
Go through your jewelry and dispose of the broken costume jewelry and make plans to sell ones that you don't wear. For fine jewelry, look up appraisers from the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers. Once you have a quoted price, shop around at auction houses, pawnshops, and jewelers to see if you can find a better deal.
把你的珠宝里坏了的人造珠宝扔掉,并做做计划卖掉你不佩戴的珠宝。要是想卖高品质珠宝的话,查查国家珠宝评估师协会的评估师。一旦有报价了,去拍卖行、当铺和珠宝店里货比三家, 看看能否有更划算的交易。
Food
食物
Go through your pantry and fridge and clear out items that need to be thrown out — the old, unused, and rotting. Do this weekly instead of monthly, just to make sure you don't have any unpleasant surprises!
翻翻你的食品储藏室和冰箱,把需要扔掉的东西——时间长了的、不想吃了的、腐烂的食物清除出去。这一项要每周做一次,而不是每月做一次,来确保你不会有任何不愉快的意外!
Some memorabilia
一些纪念品
Many organizing experts advise to be ruthless and throw away memorabilia like cards and gifts you don't use. I agree, but I think you can keep some of them by perhaps creating some sort of poster with old cards or designating a small shoe box for memorabilia. Resolve to throw away anything that can't fit into the box.
很多整理专家建议要果断一些,把不用的诸如卡品和小礼物之类的纪念品扔掉。我同意这样做,但我认为你可以留下一些,可以用旧卡片来创作海报或指定一个小鞋盒来装纪念品。下定决心,把盒子里装不下的东西都扔掉。
Notebooks
笔记本
I don't know about you, but I have a ton of notebooks lying around. Take a look at them and throw out the ones that you no longer need. My notebooks are filled with notes from classes I take and notes from meetings.
我不知道你是不是这样,反正我周围有一大堆笔记本。翻翻它们,把不再需要的笔记本扔掉。我的笔记本上面都是上课的笔记和开会的记录。
