Ok, I know I’m 13 and should be all like "Oh this is easy as 1 2 3." Well, I’m not one of those people. I procrastinate because I hate doing it. I don’t know how to do it quickly and in a somewhat fun way without inviting others over. Here’s my delima:
1. I need to vacuum
2. I need to get rid of a lot of baby toys, etc. (i’m a pack rat!)
3. I need it done by tomorrow evening and i’ll be gone all day till 3 pm
4. my closet is fairly clean and i dont want it crammed again
5. my floor is littered with purses, school supplies, tech stuff, and knitting things and I need a way to organize
6. I’m not allowed to put things up against my wall unless they are a furniture of some sort (shelves, vanity, bed, etc.)
7. My floor must not have clutter shoved up under stuff, in tight places, in corners, behind things
8. My mom is a Nazi about my room being clean and she’ll inspect it when I say I’m done, so it has to be pretty much spotless
9. there can’t be lots of stuff on top of my dresser, bookshelf, bedside table or desk/vanity
Please reply before 10 pm tonight! I really appreciate any list of steps or helpful hints/tips! All my clothes are picked up and sorted, thankfully and that is a big chunk of the problem out of the way!
also forgot to mention- This is like a HUGE clean out of my room. Sort of like going from kid to young adult/teen. This is kind of important to me because I want to have a lot of friends over soon and last time i heard remarks about my room being baby-ish and I don’t want that again. So, this is like a really big chinese new year clean sweep!
what i do (well what i should be doin right now) –
1. Take everything OFF the bed then make it
2. Take your dirty clothes to the laundry room and start the load (dont get destracted on the way)
3. Put all the clean clothes in a basket then put it in the hall or someplace out of your room
4. make piles of things (school supplies, purses, knitting things, tech stuff etc.)
5. Get bins or drawers and put the piles in them (if you did bins i would lable them so diffrent things dont get put in them) put the bins to the side
6. get a trash bag and put all of your baby toys in it then put it in the hall
7. everything should be off the floor if not pick them up and put them in a seperate bin even if the dont go together
8. now get another trash bag and clean out your closet (organize clothes, put things in bins, etc.)
9. vacuum EVERYTHING!
10. Get the clean clothes in the hall and put them away
11. put the bag of baby toys somewhere
12. put the bins in your closet
13. you should be done!
Tips: Dont get destracted, put on the tv or music so you wont get bored
