Room Post #2

My room has 1x door. On my door there is:
- a painting of me done by Damien Taylor
- envelopes sent to me from people rather than companies
- ink cartridge tabs
- a round of poem sandwich I did with Michele and his friend
- a series of uncomplimentary photos of myself stuck there by my friends

I bought shelves and brackets on trademe and put them up
to make a library. For my makeshift wardrobe I got a

 bottom shelf with dog chain. It holds all of my clothes
minus shorts socks boxers and ties and has not collapsed yet!
