All it takes is 3 snow days

It snowed a lot this weekend.  I couldn't really go anywhere.  I decided to finally finish the process that I started a year and a half ago when I moved back home after college.  Yes, my friends...I gutted my room.

It was a room of transition.  I wasn't planning on staying here long since I had big plans for my life.  There was no need to unpack.  But, after MY plans were put on hold, I decided it was time to settle in, unpack, and say goodbye to certain things.  Memories of my past not fitting in with my present were making no room for my future.

I assembled my bookcases, the best Christmas present ever and the motivation of my cleaning spree.  Please look at the picture to the right.  Now imagine all of those books with no home, scattered throughout my room.  You would be ecstatic over a couple of bookcases as well if you saw the previous situation. 

In just 3 days I consolidated, threw out one-third of my life, and rearranged furniture.  My room is a happier place because of it.  The only fear now is that with such a cozy, pleasant room, I'll never want to leave.

Well... that's probably not true.
