Dirty Room Needs Clean Up

Thing has never been so bad until you come across the craziness when you have to clean up your room. The enduring forbearance to conduct the work can be easily disturbed especially working under a relatively hot weather. Worse than being caught under the rain, my shirt was soaked in sweat. My nose was being hit by the familiar smell I last sensed when I was in Penang - the smell of sweat. It has been a long time since I sweated and the weather in Leeds has never failed to bring the arctic atmosphere to the people here. Anyway, summer has to be like summer, so useless to complain.

My room needs to be cleaned up due to the disorder after a fierce “battle”. Incredibly increase of the things in my room has led me to brusque craziness. Hopping up and down, not because I was excited about getting my room cleaned up but I was agitated by the hard work that I was about to go through that time.

I seemed to have lost my sense of direction on where to start. Questions circling around my mind are always the same. And it will get more stupid as the questions are repeated continuously for several times. Yes, rubbish first. And so I cleared all the “unwanted”. The attention was diverted to the books after that and I have never thought of having so many books with me. In fact, I only brought two here and now I have got more than 13 of them. Course texts cover only 30%, the rest are novels and holistic concealed written works. Finally, when it came to clothes, I suddenly held myself from continuing, knowing that there is still a week or two before I leave my room for another place. Needless to get the clothes packed in an early stage like this, I might need to wear the clothes later within these days of my stay. And so the process of cleaning ended just like this. To be frank, I just hate cleanliness but the end of the work could be fruitful – yes, a tidy room you will get.
