4:03 PM || so i woke up this morning, went downstairs, and noticed that my mom had been cleaning the house since early this morning. everything was so neat and uncluttered, so i decided that i would do the same. i got up off my lazy butt for once and cleaned my room. and now, i am finally finished. wow it sure does look SO much better. my back is really sore though. =T i guess i really do take my mom for granted when she spends so much time trying to make the house look nice, and all i do is mess it up. it's not like i intentionally try to clutter everything around. i just get lazy and when i take something from somewhere, i unconsciously leave it there instead of putting it back where it belongs. "a clean home, is a happy home," they say. surprisingly, it seems as if everyone is in so much of a better mood now that everything is in order.
*sigh. i'm tired. i need a massage. i think there is something wrong with my left shoulder. it's always sore. maybe i should go get it checked out by a doctor. but then again, i don't wanna add to any more financial burdens to our family. hMm, maybe i'll just go be a couch potato and watch Lifetime movies all day.
