So, according to this the next thing was not unexpected: my bin was full of empty boxes of convenience food. This characterizes me as a person, who is not skilled at cooking and has not enough spare time. There were no cigarette butts. It shows my attitude to smoking. Even during the party, I asked my friends to smoke outdoors. However, there was a thing, which reveals my bad habit. There were a huge amount of beer cans. Also, I throw away some shredded clothes and toiletries. This trash characterizes me as a person, who cares about appearance and look.
