Happy New Year! Did you make a New Year's Resolution?
Well, I did. For 2016, I resolved to clean my room and maintain it better throughout the year. This is a common teenage problem, of course, but I decided that for this year, I will at least try to be more organized!
I dusted, I vacuumed, and I sorted. Finally, I decided that I could no longer ignore the building mess under my bed. I looked underneath, and I rediscovered my drawings and paintings from this past year. I realized I hadn't posted anything here for a while, so today I will share what I've been up to in 2015.
It's funny that I mention my New Year's Resolution - we're only thirteen days into 2016 and my room has already reverted back to its original state...
