53. My Ceiling


When I first moved into my apartment, I immediately began decorating. I love having a room of my own and the ability to decorate it how I want. Someday I hope to have a sophisticated house with well coordinated colors and silverware and china. But for now... right now I'm 21 with the world ahead of me. And right now, I can decorate my room as crazy as I want. Because I've got no one to impress and no one to answer to.

Thus, my room right now is a blend of lime greens and blues and pictures and paintings and mirrors and frames and teddy bears and bulletin boards and quotes and cards and coloring book pages. But the best part is what few people notice. It's what I see when I lay down in bed at night. It's my ceiling. =)

Halfway through the year I bought some glow-in-the-dark stars and put them up. Brian decided they weren't enough and got me a bunch more. Now I've got stars and planets and shooting stars and all sorts of glowing space things. And nothing makes me feel more at peace than laying under them in the dark just before I fall asleep.

  1. I have always had glow-in-the-dark stars on my bedroom ceiling. My mother put them on my ceiling when I was a little girl and I have just kept doing it--no matter where I lived. I also have a sea gull mobile hanging from my ceiling light--just thoughts of the beach and a starry night.

  2. That makes me so happy. =) I plan on doing it as long as I can. I didn't have them in my room at home but love having them at my apartment.
