Creative Writing

After a long hard day at school I love to come home to my favourite place, my bedroom. My room is located at the back of the house in between my brothers and parents. My room is medium, square sized and has a colour pattern of ivory, a light pink, silver and oak. As soon as you walk into my room you are overwhelmed with smells. At the moment my room smells quite fresh and summer like. With the spring air, perfume, flowers and a hint of lemon oil that my mom uses to clean table tops, so I guess sometimes it has a weird taste as well. I have hard wood floors in my room and they always seem to be cold. I really don’t like them; I think that carpet in a bedroom is best because it’s more comfortable. My room has a very warm feel to it because of the colours. The first thing that you see is my bed. It is a double bed with an ivory comforter. I have 4 sleeping pillows and 3 decorative pillows which are pink, beige with brown accents and a sequence pillow. I also have a light pink blanket at the bottom of my bed,. Right beside that I have my bed side table. It’s made of oak and has two drawers.  On it is a white and silver lamp, a silver photo frame, a pink and silver lava lamp and a silver dancer figure. Above my bed side table I have a decorative mirror which is round and has a silver boarder. Next I have a cabinet, which is also made of oak and has shelves and two drawers at the bottom. In there I store clothes and other random things and on top of it I have my black TV. Next I have a black picture that has a whole bunch of words on it like laugh, love, sing, dance etc.  Then I have my closet which had two big mirrors on it which really comes in handy. It’s a fairly big closet but not a walk in. Then I have my chalk calendar which I love filling out at the beginning of every month so I can stay organized. Coming back to a full circle, on top if my bed I have my window with ivory curtains, which are pretty thick so my room can go fairly dark at night time. Last but defiantly not least in the very centre of my room I have my chandelier. At the top there are 5 lines of around 10 little crystals that hang down to meet a round base which is followed by some crystals hanging down with a big diamond in the middle.  My room is usually clean, but during the week when I am super busy, when I say I cleaned my room it usually just means that I made path from my door to my bed. Cleaning and organizing my room usually takes place on the weekend when I feel more up to it. I really do love my room and feel like it’s a place where I can just relax.
