Yep, exams are officially over. How do I know? The most obvious indication is the state of orderliness of my bedroom. During exam season, my room essentially becomes organized chaos. I feel as though many of you can relate, so I am going to describe my room to you for an "it's funny because it's true" moment.
Ultimately, every surface in my room becomes covered in piles of ... stuff (to use an extremely nondescript noun).
The floor = dirty clothes.
The foot of the bed = clean clothes (which stay on the bed day and night ... they just add to the warmth for sleeping - of which there is very little anyway).
The head of the bed = books in use for essays.
The middle of the bed = open snacks.
The nightstand = 10 coffee cups in various levels of consumption.
The alarm clock = the television series on DVD you watch for breaks during studying and writing.
The desk = piles of papers from classes.
Beside the bed = piles of papers for essays.
The chair = books for research/textbooks for quick reference that can be reached from the bed.
The bookshelf = Gatorade to avoid dehydration from the coffee, cough candies and Kleenex to help with the cold acquired through minimal sleep, cell phone in case of stress or studying emergencies.
The wardrobe (Does anyone else instantly think of Narnia every time they hear this word?) = basically empty because the clothes are all over your floor and/or bed.
I am happy to report my wardrobe is now fairly empty for another reason - packing for home :) Christmas break (which is really an illusion, as we all know it is actually full of readings and assignments, but allow me to live in ignorant bliss for a few days), here I come!
Merry Christmas Nipissingites! Bonne fin de semestre!
My room is exactly the same. Except all the time, not just during exams.
ReplyDeleteAhaha, I don't know if I would be able to take my room being messy all the time! How do you survive?
