My Mom Sucks
She really does too. I mean, I'm 16 and she tries to kick me out of the house. That's just illegal. I mean, I look back on it and I just want to smash my head into the wall. I can see my reflection in the carpet and my mom seems to think it's not clean enough. >_<
Man, has anyone's parents not bothered them about their room?
I guess I'm lucky because I have a side room that's kinda like a crawlspace-turned-room. I think my room looks so clean right now that I just want to throw things on the floor because the cleansliness annoys me. I mean, don't get me wrong, I think clean is good, but not to the point where it no longer looks like somewhere where you live. I like the sense of homeliness I get from the slight disorder of my room. It's kinda what the inside of my head would look like without the green walls. I think a room should be personal. As in, not shown to guests unless you say they can see it. I think I may be too attached to my room, or at least everything in it.
I feel like I am just ranting now, but I kinda like where this is going. If you looked in my side room, you would laugh at the mess in there. Stacks here, piles there, cat in the corner. In my opinion, messy but orderly. All the piles and stacks are of certain things. Mangas, movies, fanfics, books, sheet music. I know where everything. I know where to find anything. And I like being able to find it all. Cleaning up would be changing my order and I would be none too happy with that. I like the look that says "Lumi lives here!".
I have all these little trinkets I've found or bought. They are everywhere. I don't like to get rid of things. Each one of those trinkets has some kind of memory associated with it. I would like to just leave my room my way, but my mom insists that "clutter is the root of all evil". I like clutter, and I'm already evil, so it's like a double negative. ^_^
Anyway, off the room topic. I got my first job a few days ago. I work at the Staples in my town. My first day was supposed to be yesterday, but some issues came up, so I start today, as in Tuesday. I'm going to be working in the Copy and Print Center because I have worked with the machines previously. Except, I never knew there was a machine just for folding paper...O_o I like the uniform though. Blue shirt and black apron and black shoes and black slacks. Comfy. Weird thing though, when I got my shirts, myself and another employee discovered that Large was the smallest size they had. The Large size goes about to my knees. The largest size they had was 7XL. O_O That's like a shirt for your house. I could LIVE in one of those...with my cat too! Cirque du Soleil could perform in the shirt! It was insane. Oh well, they got shirts on the idea there would be more guys working...only girls work in the Copy and Print Center at the moment. Feminists would be very happy about that.
Alright, since I have work in 11 hours, I think I should end this here. I'm happy that you read far enough to read this sentence. I do believe I rambled quite a bit at the top. lol Peace.
