Today is my self-declared annual room-cleaning day! It all came about when I woke up this morning and found I had nothing to do with my life today, so I decided to finally clean my room as I promised myself a thousand times over but never got round to doing it. :D
I am a HOARDER. I have serious hoarding issues. I never wanna throw anything away no matter how old or superfluos. Even the curtains which look like something a rainbow threw up on are dulled by my extravagant(?) array of memorabilia (at least that's what i like to call it).
As one of my many 'theories of life' go,"The state of a person's room reflects the state of a person's mind". Applying that theory to the states of my room and mind, I never want to throw anything away. When something is taken out I don't bother putting it away. So there it lays discarded and out of place, constantly peaking out at me and taunting me with it's presence. Yet for some reason i avoid having to deal with it thinking if I just leave it, I don't have to go through the motions of, well, dealing with it.
Other than that, my room is a library. So yes, I do have a slight obsession and avarice for books ( I'm not a nerd!). And also Bible verses written (yes, written) on my poor walls. I'm a Jesus Freak! =)
Now I shall analyse my sibling's rooms to back up my theory. My sister is the most hardcore Jonas Brother's fan you will ever meet and her room is pasted with their faces at every corner. My brother is a breakdancer. Amid his busy life of exams he still tries to find time for dance. In his room, he moved away some stuff to make space for dancing.
I ended up with approximately 6 boxes full of my junk. And I'm still not completely done. I realise how physically and emotionally demanding cleaning my room is (nothing sarcastic) probably cuz I hardly ever clean my room. After I was ABOUT done, I looked around and saw.. not much difference. Other than things being more in place and sorted out plus less junk discarded on the floor, it still gives away the same old vibe as before: everything is only almost in place.
