Feng Shui is Fun To Say

I just got done rearranging my room.  I've been a firm believer in practicing feng shui, even long before I knew what it was.  When I worked at Book of the Month Club, I used to see all of these Feng Shui books and I thought that there was just a really prolific Chinese author with that name, which I pronounced Feng Shooey (much like I thought Harry Potter was an author).  Then when I realized what it was, I declared myself an expert on the topic and never bothered opening up one of those books (I still don't know who the crap Harry Potter is, nor did I care to open up one of his books).

Since I was sick last week on Wednesday and into Thursday, I decided that now is a good time to try to recenter my chi or whatever.....that's what us experts refer to it as.  I'm always trying to find that balance between a room's space and its utility.  Each time I am finished - like right now - I bask in the room's new look, even if it is the same form it took 4 or 5 feng shui renditions ago, and I am just so satisfied that the room has finally reached this magical balance.

I will most likely get bored of this look and rearrange the room in a month or two, as I always do.

  1. I used to rearrange my room all the time too now I have too much crap and none of it fits in my tiny room so it stays messy and boring all the time :(

  2. if your room is too small, that's an even better reason for a rearrangement....and go through your "crap" and pitch what you don't want/need....if you're calling it crap, then it doesn't seem like you're too fond of it.
