Cleaning house.

Cleaning is, oddly enough, a very relaxing thing to do. Or, at least it was today.
My room was, like every other normal teenager's room, a complete mess. I hadn't really had any spare time to clean it because my oh-so-wonderful professors decided that we just needed more work to do. But, since today was Memorial Day and I had nothing going on (and I was trying to avoid my dad, like I do every time he's home), I decided to clean it.

But it was so much more than just cleaning up my room. I've had quite a few nasty habits sneak back into my life, and they were starting to take over (much like the piles of old assignments in my room). I knew they were there, but I kept making excuses for them. They aren't REALLY hurting anyone. Nobody has to know. I'm just too busy to take care of that right now. But you know what? They WERE starting to affect the people around me. People DID start figuring things out. And I'm SURE I had enough time to deal with those little buggers.

So, today I cleaned house.
I now actually have room to actually work out in my room.
My laptop is actually at my desk instead of sitting on a TV tray by my couch.
And I'm almost starting over.
Almost.
I can't erase things that have happened. I wouldn't want to even if I could. They've contributed to who I am.
So I'm not starting over, but I'm now as close to starting over as is possible.

Cleaning is a real eye-opening experience. You might want to take the time to finally organize your closet, or clean off the kitchen table, or... well, you get the hint.

Oh, and you are now a witness to my lovely insomnia. I'm posting a blog at four in the morning, and now I'm going to work out (since I now have room to work out in my bedroom). Hope you all are sleeping better than I am!
