How to Personalize Your Room

The trick to being a unique individual is to pretend to be interesting at parties, and to fill your bedroom with stuff. Stuff that reflects who you are.

The first step is your posters. If you've ever been in my room, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout. I've wasted more money then I'd like to think about on crappy posters. James Bond, Einstein, Yao Ming, random forests, Einstein, the Beatles, MLK, a boat... How else are you going to show people that you have interests?!

Next step is the pictures. Hang those bad boys all over the frickin' place. Yes, they are different than posters. Pictures should be of you with at least one other person. They shouldn't be just of you. Don't be so cocky. It's your own room, you don't need to see yourself smiling.

BOOKS. I know a lot of people don't like to read, but sweet lordy, get yourself some literature. It can be the Magic School Bus for all I care (fantastic novel btw). Books show culture and if there's a zombie apocalypse (and no internet) you'll have something to do.


The clothes are important too. None of this matters if you're walking around naked. Unless you're a nudist. Which is totally fine with me, nothing against nudists. Get some shirts, pants, undergarments, even some socks. Whatever you need to protect your body from the weather and the one guy outside the 7-11 giving you the stink-eye.

Most importantly, the bed. And not just the mattress. You need to get some tricked out covers, a squishy but firm pillow, and a nightstand. Get yourself a nightstand. Also make sure you put the bed in the right place. It'll make the room seem much bigger than it would otherwise. Corners and edges of the room are advisable.

I hope this helps. In terms of things like clothes all over the damn place because you're too lazy to fold them (yeah me too) you just gotta do it. Make sure to get some sort of fragrance, like a scented spray or something for the room, because you smell awful. And in the name of all that is holy, don't do work on your bed. Your work needs to be done separately from the area that you rest in. Otherwise you'll be stressed whenever you get in bed. And then things will really suck.
