I decided to do this fun little activity where if you're tagged, what you have to do is to basically show, as the title says, 5 random things in your room. It could be anything at all -- a prized possession, something from you were a kid, something with sentimental value, etc. If you would like to do this, feel free! I tag everyone who would like to make their own. Specifically, I tag these fellow book bloggers! Leave your link as a comment if you ever decide to do this :)

1. Acoustic Guitar
- It's old, and it doesn't even tune well anymore. Despite this, I still use it. It's well loved.
2. Homemade Wall Art
- My favorite piece of art, hands down. My best friend, Tim, made this for me as a Christmas gift. What he did was he drew a typewriter, used pink letters to make the keys, and wrote a copy of Pablo Neruda's Sonnet 17 -- my most favorite poem -- on the paper "coming out" from the typewriter. Written on the sides, top, and the bottom, are some of my favorite quotes from some of my favorite books. This wall art inspires me every time I see it as it sums up who I am, ultimately, as a reader and a writer.
3. Vintage Glass Bottles
- I've always loved vintage and antique things, mainly because I like history. These glass bottles, to me, are just one of those little, quirky things I love. They're mere objects, but they have so much life in them. They share the stories of the past, and they've been used and loved by someone before. Not to mention, they're gorgeous to look at especially when the sunlight hits them during the day.
4. A Little Mermaid Music Box
- Did I ever tell you how much I love music boxes? Because I do! I have two others, but this is my favorite! This was one was a gift from my sister. She knows that Ariel was and is my favorite Disney Princess. Also, I have always been in love with the ocean and water life. In fact, when I was little, when my family and I would go on trips to go swim somewhere, I'd always pretend I was a mermaid, swimming, without a care in the world. This one's pretty special because it reminds me greatly of my childhood.
5. A Drawing
- First off, I don't draw at all. This one was an attempt I did, inspired by none other than one of my favorite indie artists, Becky Filip. I worked on it one day during the Spring time when some of my friends and I went to the beach. It was more of a secluded area; not crowded, which we loved. We pretended we owned the land, and each of us took out a piece of paper and let our creativity flow. Some wrote, others played their guitars, while some attempted to draw. The day was used to relax and "get away from it all", due to all the stress going on at that time, and that's exactly what we did.

Well, that was actually pretty fun. Haha. I'd love to see your lists as well, so go ahead and leave a comment with your links! :) Thanks everyone, and happy Sunday!
