The Bedroom


Warning! This post isn't for small children, or for the weak at heart. The follow images may bring on nightmares, and possible retina damage. You have been forewarned...
You are about to enter, The Bedroom. The room void of all comfort and tranquility. A room where you can go, and lose all sanity. After spending fifteen minutes in this room, you will begin to have a shortness of breath, you will feel weak in the knees, and may even have the urge to run and hide in the bathroom. This first picture is what you seen as you enter through the doorway. The first piece of furniture you see, is Roommate Becca's desk. Great first impression, right...? Just you wait, there's more. I am going to take you on the grand tour of The Bedroom. Please remember, you have been warned.


As you enter in The Bedroom, and you look to the right you fill see our beds.



As your eyes sweep to the left, they will rest upon Roommate Becca's humongo desk. Next to the overflowing trash, you will find our dresser which is usually barricaded by dirty clothes.
Continuing over to the left, you find our closets and my desk. Oh, you can't see it? If you kind of squint your eyes and turn your head a little to the right, you should see it there in the corner behind some luggage... Did you find it? Well, don't you worry, I'll give you a closer look later on.

Here in the corner you will find a nice little nook. The shelving unit is actually the Roommates. It comes in quite handy. There on the wall is my little project that I am quite proud of. :) As missimaries we would decorate our apartments with cut-outs from the Church Mags. I found it to be a fun skill, thanks to Sister Chanda Rose for teaching me! Ok, so that's the room.


I also wanted to point out the lovely floor decor. As you can see, in between the piles of movie stubs dating back 3 years, and the cute hand-outs from Mary Kay, you can see our walking path, or rather, its more of a hop skip and a jump sort of path.


The sisters came for a visit a month or so ago, and were stumped at how I get up onto my bed. As you can see, it's been put up on cinder blocks to provide extra storage space. No, I don't jump. (which by the way, is how Maly got up on it...) I use the cinder block as a stool.


Here's my closet. I love it! It's the best quality of the room. Tons of shelves for my dear books. (Empty hangers, hmmm... I need to do some laundry... maybe at the Greers...) :)



I wanted to do a little comparison of the desks. Here is mine, and as you can see its just ample enough for a laptop. But! If I was to add a textbook to study from, it gets a little tricky. I've gained some sweet balance skills.




Here's the Roommate's.

And finally, my sweet wall collage. Thank you joining us today on the tour of The Bedroom. I hope you didn't become too nauseous as you came along for the ride. Sorry for wasting these last 3 minutes of your life... you will never get them back! Bwa ha ha!!!!!!!
