Time For A Change

I didn't study last night. Instead, i spent the evening taking down the hundred or so photos on my walls. I took away all of my photo albums. I took all the photos off my pin up boards. My room now looks weirdly white and empty, which is good, that's what i wanted. Now, i don't have a room full of ghosts, pictures of people who are no longer in my life and who no longer deserve a space on my walls. Now i have three birthday cards on my pin up board, and some photos of my family... that's it. It's definitely a big change... well, it seems like a big change, seeing as i am used to having my past plastered on the walls.

Speaking of plaster... some of it came off the walls when i pulled down the photos that had been blu-tacked up there, leaving little brown patches where whatever was underneath showed through. Uhoh. In an effort to hide it from my mother (who's going to freak out), i pulled out my handy dandy white out. Now, instead of little brown holes, there are super white ones - i'm hoping this is a little less noticable. It would kind of defeat the purpose of emptying my room if i had to stick stuff back up just to cover the holes in the walls. Oops.

Anyway. I'm hoping my newly blanked out walls and surfaces will be condusive to all of the study that i still have to do.
