This is a tent. It is the first tent I got when I went camping for the first time. I think it is useless because it is not a self-standing tent and is a bit difficult to built, also, I have bought another bigger self-standing tent.

This is a baseball cap. I originally bought it because I thought its design was very stylish and it matched well with my clothes. However, I recently purchased a new one that I find even more attractive and comfortable. Therefore, this old cap has become unnecessary and I no longer have a use for it.

I bought this pen on Taobao. I don't think it's useful. Although it's cheap, I already have a lot of pens of the same style. I don't use this pen very often.

This is a notebook. I bought it because I needed to take notes and review in class. But it fills up quickly, which is not good for studying, and I already have a lot of notebooks.

This is an old card holder that has been kept at home for three years. It is already damaged, but it also records many memories, so I can't bear to throw it away.

This is a Hello Kitty folder. I bought it because I needed a folder to organize my documents when I was in primary school. Back then, I was attracted by its cute Hello Kitty design and lovely appearance, and I also thought it was quite delicate, so I purchased it. Now, I find that I already have many folders, and this one has been left unused all the time, never really put into use. It just takes up space, so I think it's unnecessary.

This is a small notebook with Lotso (the strawberry bear). I wanted to buy a notebook to write down key points before the school started, but I found it more convenient to write directly in the textbook, so now this notebook is just gathering dust.

This is Astrox 70. I bought this racket because I was on the school badminton team in form 1. However, since the price of badminton has become relatively expensive now and I'm too poor, I don't play it anymore. If you want it, you can ask me, and I'll sell it to you.
