What do I do to my review materials...

I know every BSA students is aspiring to be a CPA someday (like me)...
But before that, we all need to prepare ourselves for that day...
The day that we're gonna take the Board Exam...

To prepare ourselves, we go to school everyday, listen to classroom discussions, read books, and test ourselves through seatworks, assignments and quizzes...
But one thing that we do (especially when departmental exams coming), we photocopy study materials and study them...
Others would opt to buy reviewer books in Conanan or in stalls in Recto (admit it! most of us buy in those stalls...)

Well, I know, that this photocopying of study materials causes us too much but I believe that it's an investment...
That's why I just don't mind how much it'll cost me...

What comes next?
After departmental exams, some of us, throw those materials...
Others would sell those to the junk shop (white papers costs about 2-5 pesos per kilo...)

Me?
I segregate them into those papers that can be recycled, photocopied materials, and those that will be sold to the junk shop...

Papers that can be recycled are compiled in a plastic envelope...
I use them as scratch papers...

Those photocopied study materials are set aside...
I put them in a cabinet so that if I need them, I could easily find them... (ne..)

Papers that will be sold to the junk shop are put at the back of the house...
I just put them there till the junk shop people would go inside the subdivision to buy those things...

Well, I'm just posting here what I do to those papers...

Thanks for reading!
