often reflective of a personality ... it’s me Under the piles of clothes and unclaimed junk lies my typical teenage room, filled with memories and momentos, walls plastered with pictures and magazine clippings and clothes scattered about— waiting for the weekly warning to be put away. My room, like most rooms, may be disarrayed, but it contains its own aura. Dreams, hopes, as well as sorrow and heartache fill the area between these walls. My room is a museum of childhood relics and future aspirations. The grade school oil painting over the bed contrasts visually with the teen magazine posters on the wall. Yet, to me, they remain in a unique harmony. This self-made place offers me the privacy of my own thoughts and an escape from the rest of the world. It is a place of solitude and individuality which has my personal signature embedded in its own walls. My room may not win a pictoral spot in Better Homes and Gardens ' ; but that doesn ' t matter to me. It is a cherished part of my life because it represents the spirit of home. The posters and wall paper may be changed according to the most recent trend; but my room will always encompass a part of my future, while being a reminder of my past. We displayed school spirit and pride in various parts of our rooms. The trophy case was and integral part of the room that gave to us a feeling of pride. 14 student life
