My room is pretty much done! I think getting my room together was another project but it was so worth the time and effort. I’ve moved a lot my entire life. I’ve been pretty much everywhere but my room was pretty much empty. A desk, a bed and a dresser or two. That’s what my room is pretty much composed of until recently. My last place in SF, I tried to decorate it. I’ve managed to get a few things up but I was too busy with work and school and there was a point that I just threw shit everywhere haha. When I moved back home, my room at our old house is HELLA HUGE. A bunch of photos from high school was up but that was it. I already knew we were going to move which is the reason why I didn’t care so much for my room. As you can see there is a pattern that is starting to form here haha. My room has always been a place to sleep. It’s never been a place for me to hang out or study. It’s strictly just for sleeping and that is the reason why I never even bothered with it. Moving to this new house, It was very therapeutic for me. There were days I would just go here and move our boxes and furniture by myself and it was peaceful. There was no internet or TV to bother me. I would just blast my music and start unpacking. I think one of the reasons why I cared so much for this room at the new house is because it feels like home to me. It’s warm and cozy. I just really liked the vibe of this new house. After finishing my room, I look around and it really is my life. Everything in here has a story to tell and I really love that this is what I see first thing in the morning. I wake up to all these memories I’ve created with all these amazing people. It’s just a really really good way to start a day. Being surrounded with so much love.
PS. Waking up to your room smelling like mangoes, honey dew and melon. AMAZING <3 I love scented candles haha.
