Do you sometimes have the urge to organize your living space late at night?

In the spirit of New Year, I decided to also revamp my desk a little bit. It’s the part that I did not do when my mom was visiting. When she was visiting, I was mostly focusing on removing items and giving away things that no longer use/give value to me. We ended up cleaning quite a bit and it frees my room even more. Today, I cleaned and organized my room so that it looks even more aesthetic and gives my brain a little trick that something has changed.

Another big thing this year is that I am no longer an extreme minimalist without a bed and furniture. Friends who visited came over recently even mentioned that now I have a bed, a proper one with sheets and all that. I used to believe in sleeping on the floor with a japanese futon but now I have slightly transformed. When I was at my extreme too, I changed my wall to yellow hues because it makes the room more cheerful, inviting and makes me more productive than sleepy. I certainly did not recommend this color for any bedroom but since my place is tiny and it's an all-in-one space, I went with beige-sand yellow. Although on the bedroom side and the ceiling it’s still a soft blue which I think is perfect for a space to sleep. I was thinking of repainting the room but it’s pretty time consuming and even though it's not perfect, I sort of follow color psychology and feng shui when deciding the color and also interior design. I know it’s probably woo-woo but I think there is wisdom in it.

As you can see in this before and after, before my poster was hidden and it was not as highlighted as the after picture. I got Bitcoin on the moon poster, Hive and a landscape coffee poster. Eventually, I decided to place them where it’s mostly visible from my eyes and remove some 2022 to-do sticky notes that I have.

I also recently used a gaming keyboard and thought to do so since I don’t plan on traveling anytime soon. It has less noise and is pretty comfortable to use as well. The keyboard also gives me a sense of being a NEET and makes me not want to travel. It’s strange but when I have the portable set up, it just makes me wanna go and travel somewhere. I am trying to keep my table minimal but I can’t live without my markers and colorful sticky notes for my studying session. To me now, it’s more about being intentional than having a certain amount of items.

While cleaning my room, I was also tinkering with a new website called landing.space which allows users to create pictures for social media and even thumbnails. The concept is like pinterest but it has the option to create like canva does. Here’s something that I made, a vision board of 2023 that I also uploaded on my profile on that website.

I was also making this too and thought about making it as my thumbnail but it doesn't look as good as I wanted it.

I think cleaning up late at night is pretty therapeutic. It’s another way to de-stress when I am feeling like I have too much on my mind and need something to change. It’s a cheap and easy way when watching movies or listening to music does not help anymore.
