I’ve been cleaning, organizing, getting all my spring/summer stuff out and prepping my winter stuff for storage, did 4? loads of laundry…and yet my room is even messier than when I started!! sighs So it goes. 1 month ago

When I take somethiing out, put it back when done and stay on top of laundry. Complete goal by: end of sophomore year. 2 months ago

As spring break approaches, I plan on taking some time out each day to sort through things that I can get rid of as well as thoroughly clean each section of my tiny, studio-style college apartment. Once I get home, the real work begins! We just moved into a new house and my room is a disaster! Boxes are stacked everywhere and I haven’t quite figured out where I want to put things (another sign I need to consolidate!) Then, I really need to just practice maintenance and upkeep. :) 2 months ago

1. Address the problem, the mess. “I am leaving my books everywhere”
2. Find a Solution. ” I need a book shelf, or to get rid of some books”
3. Make Change and do it every day until it forms a habit (a month or two) 4 months ago

I’m not doing that well with this goal haha. *winces I have been buying things for the wedding and, having nowhere to put them, they’re spread out all over my room. I really need to get a new storage tub so that I can start putting everything away. And I have a terrible habit of trying to figure out an outfit 20 minutes before I leave, throwing what I don’t want to wear on my bed and leaving it there all week. I really should work on that – soon enough I won’t be able to do that b/c there’ll be someone sleeping there! Ugh. It doesn’t matter if I pick stuff out in advance either, because I’ll change my mind or not feel well or not want to wear stockings or whatever and have to change.
Also, my furniture is made of pine, which I am allergic to, and my clothes pick up the smell of the pine when they’re in there long enough, and so I tend to not want to put my clothing in my drawer because of this.
And also, some clothing I wear constantly, like my grocery store clothes, so I just fling them flat on the bed, so I know where they are for tomorrow. I hang them up when I’m not going to wear them or if I’m washing them, but…I don’t know, I guess I’m just being lazy! If I can fix these two problems, I think my room will be pretty much clean!! 4 months ago

room is clean and organized…yup, but im not ready to call it achieved yet. 5 months ago

its organized. cleared of garbage. clothes is on hangers. pencils in a pencil cup on my desk. dresser is organized according to perfumes, lotions, makeup, nailpolish, jewelry, and brushes. my bookshelf…its how i want it; a little disorganized but all together. i need another bookshelf though. 5 months ago

Today I did a major quick-clean b/c my fiance was coming over. There’s a reason to clean up!! I made my bed properly for the first time in months…I was glad that I did ;-) One day I won’t be able to just throw everything on the other side of the bed til morning – there’ll be a person there!! Ha! May as well get used to it now. It’s amazing how much cleaner my room looks-and literally all I did was properly make my bed! 6 months ago
