my room is my retreat, i love my room. when ever i feel sad, or just want to lay down i go to my bedroom. it is a small room, but i like it. it has pink walls (not my fav color) so i put up adds from magazines, and some posters of australia up. i have two assi calenders, one has a koala for every month, and the other has a site in aussi's nature for every month. this month is devils marbles. they look cool.
my bed is my domain, complete with soft fleece, and flannel blankets, a big comforter, and a quilt. when my room is clean i have a wide array of stuffed animals on my bed, they cover up my whole bed, and they are not even the half of my assortament of stuffed animals. i like big cuddly objects.. heehee... i have five pillows but i only sleep with two..
next to my bed is my little table that beholds some of my candles, my alarm clock, my fishtank (with four fishies given to me by a friend when she moved to florida) and a couple trinkets i keep to remember things. in the summer i put a fan on the table so it isn't so hot at night... above the table is my window.. when i was younger my bed used to be under the window, and from the window the light from the streetlamp out front always shined on ym face, and it was very hard for me to get to sleep. now that my bed is on a wall, so that at this angle the streetlamp doesnt bother me, i like to admire the moon at night, especially when it is full.
i have two bookcases in the corner of my room. one holds about 1,000 magizines i have collected over the years, and the other boook case might hold 20 books in a short pile, and the rest of the shelves are full of little toys i have had since i was a little kid, or got later in life. one shelf is full of my australian things i have picked up over the years (not including the big stuffed toy koalas on my bed, and the little porcelain, or glass figurines on my windowsill) i even have a boomerang that my sister gave me.
heehee. lets see.. ok. next to that is my desk, full of junk, and always has something on it so i never use it for its purpus. nest to that is my bureau, which most people call a dresser. but i do not have any clothes in it, except underwear and socks in the top drawer, the rest is used for storage, one drawer is all paper full of sketches and poems, another drawer is full of photographs and notes passed around from when i was younger...
then is my closet, a nice big closet for my wardrobe.. i love my clothes.. i take pride in them. i have about 7 pairs of jeans.. of coarse i have my fav pair that i wear most, but i like them all... (am i scaring you yet?) and i have about 50 shirts.. about half of them are camp shirts that i will never wear again, but i keep them for memories.. i have about 5 or 6 skirts too.. and all my shoes (only 13 pairs so shush) in my closet.. i love looking at my clothes. i know i dont look all that great in them, but i think they are cool, and hey.. pretty good for a low budget.. lol..
lets think.. after my closet is the funny corner, i shall have to get a picture of that so you understand why i call it funny... my sister knows what i mean.. and maybe some of my friends will remember.. that funny corner, where my room would be a perfect square but about 3 X 1 feet of space goes in.. and.. well, its just weird...
and than theres my door, and my bed again.. i like the placement of my bed.. at the end of the night i open my door, and i can jump right int bed.. or if i sleep in too late during the day and i am home alone and the phone starts ringing.. i can jump out of bed, right out the door (quicker to reaching the phone in time).
well, that is it, i hope you enjoyed the tour.
oh, one more thing; i don't mind bugs too much, but they do freak me out sometimes when they are big and fast.. no bugs in my room please
