I did what??


I can't believe what I did for the most part of the day - I did some major cleaning in my room.

[ at this point, all my friends will call me and say " what did you eat!? " or something like " oh god, the apocalypse is near!" yeah yeah i know ]

But this cleaning session wasn't just any cleaning session. I was able to make a lot of free space in my room. Yep, measurement-wise, it made room for 30% more stuff to pack in. Yes, that's how much trash/junk I dug up. And I was sneezing by the end of the cleaning because of the humongous volume of dust that I scrapped and mopped. I made around 5 trips to the sink just to rinse the dusters and rags. Yes, that's how MAJOR the cleaning was.

Aside from feeling good from actually getting to clean my room in this magnitude, I was able to browse through some old "stuff" I thought I'd never find anymore. Some college shit.. some letters, greeting cards from friends, some college papers even. I had a really good time disposing of them ALL (except for the mail of course).

At sundown I was really tired; this was among the best uses of time I have ever made. I usually take time out to clean my room -- but this session -- tops every other session combined. I actually was being overtaken by a fit of laziness in the morning, so the moment it kicked me in the head that I wanted to CLEAN as in CLEAN my room, I turned the whole mood around. Now a girl can actually stay in my room and not want to leave, hehehe

Having such an orderly and neat room conditions your mind for a lot of things. It makes you feel good to see things spic and span. That "feeling good" translates into productivity in whatever you're doing (reading, drawing, whateva). And after being productive, your mind is released of stress because you have satisfied it at the end of the day. So it's really a domino thing you see..

I learned something important about my room-cleaning habits.. I really have to move my ass once I decide to START. The moment I hesitate for a minute, I'll decide to do something other than clean my room.

Now lying in bed and staring at my clean room, next thing iL want is some cool wallpaper, paint and hmm.. venetian blinds perhaps? hahaha

Nah, I think I'm going overboard with the OC-mood. 'till the next post.
