In the spirit of stealing basic ideas....

I bring you my room!

At five thirty this morning I came to realize something. The end-of-term apathy and subsequent room messiness that I have experienced in the past still occurs at the end of the summer term, excepting a few differences. First, the mess accumulates over the last few days, rather than the last couple weeks. Second, the mess is notably smaller both because it has less time to accumulate and because I have a lot less crap in my possession that could potentially accumulate as mess in the first place.

I'm sure there's a mathematical formula I could work out for that, but as I only slept a few hours last night and keep getting stress headaches (from a lack of sleep, I'm certain), we'll leave it as conceptual.

So what to do with this mess? Clean it up, maybe??
Hm... I've a better idea!
I'll show it to the world through my blog!!! WOOHOO!!!!

^_^


So yes. Observe. To the left upon entering is Party Leftovers -->

Here we have various alcoholic beverages, left over from a party I had in here weeks ago. Notice that wheeled basket?? That's what my friend used to bring in the alcohol and food she brought to my party. As she's yet to pick up these remains, here it all stands, waiting. Least it proves I'm not an alcoholic, eh?

If you all would kindly look to the right now, you will see the much adored Extra Desk -->

There are a various number of items here, including some fine board games (also my friend's), my art history paper atop some paper plates from Bear's Den (got a 94 on that paper!!), a bag of pretzels I probably ought to just throw out, the Avenue Q soundtrack in a sleeve, and a case of Dr. Peppers (which hasn't been touched since Adam was here) topped with an art museum map and a Chinese take-out menu.

Alright! Moving forward, still on the right and past Delia, my laptop, is a recent development I lovingly call Pistachios, in honor of the mid-morning snack clearly displayed here -->

Again, there is a good mix of things here. We have the lion-covered Chronicles of Narnia book, a folder and a good number of flashcards from studying for my art history class, the base of a blender (again, not mine), my mid-morning snack as I suggested above, and (if you look between the blender and the folder) a bottle of my latest favorite nail polish (clear with rainbow sparkles, woohoo).

Now please, if you would, for the full effect, take a few steps back and move to the left. There you will find the Nap Trap -->

The title here actually refers to all three points of interest here. First is the "couch," seen at left. Over the past five weeks, a good number of people have fallen victim to this trap's cozy appeal. More recently, though, as I've grown more antisocial as my final test approaches, the "couch" has served no purpose and I have thus left its cover sheet and throw pillows in the disarray their last user left them in. The other major trap here is my own bed, seen along the back wall. As you may have guessed, I haven't even attempted to make my bed in the last couple days. These things happen. The final element is somewhat limited in its relation to the Nap Trap in that it is merely the product of the actual trap's effectiveness. However, I feel that if I do not give this entity full credit, it may easily grow into a man-eating monster and attack me during the night. You will notice this rather innocuous-looking creature slumbering peacefully on the floor in front of my bed. It has formed almost without my noticing; it seems that when taken with a desire to sleep lately, I'm drawn into the Nap Trap so quickly that I hardly have time to strip off my jeans and t-shirt. This quick de-robing and exchange for softer fabrics leads to the clothes remaining on the floor in a heap, biding their time and slowly gathering strength.

Alright, my friends, you've made it this far. Just one more stop in our tour and then you can make your way to the gift shop. So please just step forward a bit, all, and look to your right. Here we have what I've simply come to call Yo -->

Don't be shy, now! Come in close and get a good look.

Here we have my iHome and iPod, currently playing one of my very favorite mixes, some index cards, an art history textbook, a left-hander's spiral notebook (quite handy, I must say!), various unimportant whatnot, some fingernail polish remover, my cell phone charging dock, and (the focus of this collection, it seems) a yo-yo that for reasons unknown has come to live hanging from the lofted bed above our heads. Interesting, that.

Well, that is all I have to show you. Thank you for visiting, and if there are no questions...? No? Ok, well do have a fine day, all, and i hope you had a wonderful time.
