Fresh Start

In this post, I show the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to moving out and living by yourself. Yes, I’m talking dirty rooms.

In this sound slide video, I use natural sound and my own voiceover to walk through the journey of cleaning my room, something that means more to me than merely a simple tidying up. Maintaining a clean room is a value instilled in me by my mother, and so whenever I find myself getting a little messy, I can hear her voice telling me to put down my phone and pick up a broom. I also find that freshening up my space tends to improve my mood and clear out any negativity that clutters my life . There’s something special about coming home to a clean room where everything is in its own place and I’m not tripping over shoes just to get to my bed. I find peace in cleaning my room and feel like the world is back in order when all my belongings are back in order. As always, my mother is right. Sometimes you just have to slow down and create your own fresh start.
