For everyone who knows me, it's no longer a secret how sacred my room is to me. It's my sanctuary, so it's apparent that I take care of it.
I work almost every day, including the weekends, but last Sunday I decided to just have one Skype class and not open any other schedule.
Before focusing on my room, I helped my mom with some of the chores. When I asked her if there was anything else she needed help with, she told me to just start cleaning my room. hahah
The first thing I did was rearrange my art materials. I had a bunch of old markers that still worked but were rarely used, so I gave them to CJ, a young neighbor. He recently came to borrow some watercolors, but I gave it to him since I had an extra palette.
I didn't see him when he received the markers, but my parents said he was so happy. He told them that he will use them soon since they had an art project at the moment. <3
On this side are my acrylic paints and paintbrushes, as well as my canvas pads and notebooks for writing poetry.
I also re-organized my books, anime figurines and other stuff. I placed some of them on the stairs for decoration... and it would be easier to get them when I want to read them. I haven't read some of these books, yet.
There are more books on this shelf... and actually, I hid quite a number of them behind these books as well. Let me show you...
They're mostly my mom's novels. I'm not a fan of romance, so they're staying there for now. hahah
I also placed my anime magazines, BL doujinshi, Japanese books, and some important documents on the bottom shelf for easy access. It's much easier for me to get stuff that I need through this arrangement.
I also temporarily added a freedom board on this wall. I plan to paint something on it someday, but I don't have time for it yet, so this should do for now.
I also cleaned and rearranged my dresser. I rarely use this area though. I no longer possess cosmetic products unlike before when I still worked outside.
Lastly, here's my workspace. Apart from my computer, I have this notebook, organizer, and a book I currently read. I also have a small DIY bulletin board which I made for the ASEAN Hive Community challenge back then. It's pretty useful in helping me keep track of my Anime Realm Monthly Quest. :)
Here's a photo I took from my work camera. This is what my students usually see whenever we have classes. :) Some of them ask me if I'm in an art studio or an atelier because of my background. hahah But then, they'd be shocked when I answer, "I'm under my bed!".
I surely love this place, so it's important to maintain it. :) What do you think? Thanks for checking and see you around! (^^,)/
So neat! This is the reason why I want my own room. So that I can design it however I want. But then, having a room is also like a big responsibility which I hated the most. Haha. Love the vibe in your room though, lalo you are surrounded with your favorites and like.
Sankyuuu... :)
Even though I get along well with my parents, I still prefer to have my privacy... Kaya, I like having my own room. We don't own this house (rent lang), but the owner is kind enough to allow us to make some changes and improvements...

Thanks as always... 🥰🥰🥰
Back in my younger days, I wanted to be surrounded by art materials and anime. I want a pink room. Haha.
It's never too late for that... 🥰
hehe di sya applicable where I'm living in. XD
Ohh.. I see... Maybe in your next house? 😅
hahah I have kids na so there's a chance they will grab all the anime accessories, art materials and play around the pink room, for sure. haha.
oopssss~~~
then, you'd have to wait a little longer for them to get a bit older. ^^
hahaha I'll be too old to accumulate those things. parang di na practical. baka more on minimalist nalang.
I would spent every singly minute in my room if it looks like that. I have some trouble keeping my room clean. I also see that you have a lot of JK. Rowling's books like the tale of beedle and the bard, I only have a digital version not an actual book.
Same... It's difficult to clean my room regularly. XD
Yes, they're originally my best friend's books. She gave them to me last time, since she bought new copies in her place in the US.
I did read Harry Potter when I was young, though. 😅 I placed it near my bed, so I could read it when I feel like doing so.
