Messy room, too many crafts and not enough time!

For the past 6 hours I have put together a playlist on itunes for “Cleaning up my room” and it has great hits – Dr. Hook, Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Electric Light Orchestra, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Lynyrd Skynyrd, 10cc, Rolling Stones, The Animals and of course the Beatles. I decided to skip Zepp and Floyd, because they are more for my meditative, creative and thinking moods. It took me roughly 10 minutes to put it together...then I found an interesting book, so I read that for a while. Then a brilliant idea struck me. Why not become a candle arranger and then I set about removal items from my bedside table. I lit probably 30 candles, so much so that my sister was blinded by the light. Eventually, the smoke alarm went off. The incense I got around to burning heating the glass and my “bright idea” to put it under cold running water resulted in the glass shattering. I left the candles burning as I painted. Because, I mean who wouldn’t want to paint by candlelight like all classic artist would...well, not too sure about that one but we will run with it. I let the painting dry as I then moved onto catching up on Glee Season 2. I waited for that to load as I check my facebook and played facebook games. I then moved to the lounge where I watched some Nickelodeon and Disney. I also sketched a new comic book character that I haven’t worked into my storyline yet. Of course, as I sit here and watch Kell On Earth I am writing this entry. Because I need to do something other than clean my room.

I am dealing with situations my way...by not dealing with them at all. By avoid the situation. You will probably notice that my entries will skyrocket as I go back to uni. I need the distraction.

I am thinking of going into our storage unit right now to get my craft bucket out of there. I always get inspired to clean my room but never quite got there. I think sometimes that 3 in the morning is an appropriate time. Possibly, subconsciously, I know that it will never be achieved.

I like my messy room. Everything I need is out in the open therefore within grabbing distance. I think that the mess grows because of that and because of my lifestyle. Instead of waking up an hour before I'm ready, I wake up 20-30 minutes before I have to go. If I don’t hear the alarm usually I have 10-15 minutes. Damn you snooze button!

Sad to say that my room is still a rubbish dump and I considered taking photos of it but I decided to hold off on that one because there was no way that I would embarrass myself.

But I am striving towards organising it and once again, shutting away my crafts until the end of the semester.

So I will post this entry and hop to it and hopefully become an efficient future teacher and person.

Aloha!
