Thursday Thirteen #2

Blimey! I forgot my Thursday Thirteen post for last week, I suppose it was the last day of school and all so that is understandable. Congratulations to my momma, who is featured on the front page this week!

Thirteen Things about *Aly's Bedroom* 1. When I was younger, I went through a flowery phase. That was closely followed by a cow print phase. (yes, everything was cow print!) When we moved into our new home, I decided I wanted something a bit more simple. My room is decked out in blue and yellow. 2. Since I started working, there is absolutely not enough space in my room for all my teaching gear and books. My room isn't exactly small, either. 3. There is not a single thing hanging on the wall in here. I have pictureframes that have been waiting to go up for years, but still haven't gone up. Can you say procrastination? 4. I have so many books on my bookshelf that the shelf itself is starting to bend in the middle. 5. Alright. I'll admit it. I still have some stuffed toys in here that I can't bear to throw away. Yes, I'm 22. 6. Jason's photograph can be found at least 7 times inside this one room. 7. I'm in love with my quilt cover and never ever want to replace it with anything. It's beautiful! It's stripey, and blue, yellow, green and brown. Hard to describe it's loveliness. 8. My room faces the west; it gets super hot in the afternoons. When I close my yellow curtains, my room changes colour. 9. If I look out my bedroom window, I get an almost perfect view of the Blue Mountains when the day is clear. It's the reason I chose this room when we moved in to this house; even though I later found out that my brother's room is actually bigger. 10. I feel most comfortable in this bedroom than in any other room in the house. 11. No matter how many times I clean this room, it still looks messy. I think this has something to do with #2. 12. Since getting my television set in this room a couple of years ago, I have watched countless hours of DVDs in here. So many hours in fact, I don't even want to try and figure out the total. 13. You should probably stay out of my cupboard. Yep. That's all.
