As an intimate space that is usually accessed by just you and the closest people around you, your bedroom reveals more about you than you may realise! After all, it is about the only place in the world where you are free to make a mess, or place your favourite things all around your room without worrying about what others say. That is, if you don’t mind Mum’s nagging.
Here are impressions you might be giving away about your personality if you have these traits in your room.
Unmade Bed
You never lift a finger to do the housework. If you are living with your parents, you probably rely on Mum to make the bed too, amongst other things.
Presence of life forms (Plants and pets)
You have a sense of responsibility, if said life forms are still thriving well, that is. Gauging from your interest in living things, you are probably a caring and nurturing person.
Musical instruments in prominent parts of your room
You are creative, musically-inclined and talented, probably a rock star in the making. You may be asked to play a tune for your visitor.
Exercise equipment – weights, punching bags
You are a fitness freak who works out regularly, and probably leads a disciplined and healthy lifestyle.
Pigsty-like
You have organizational issues and lack a sense of control over your life. On the other hand, it also suggests that you are laidback and not fussy, which might be a good thing.
Photographs of family and friends
You are a sentimental person, affectionate, and you appreciate your loved ones.
Large book collection, book shelf
A large book shelf often impresses, as people would tend to assume that the owner is studious, intelligent and loves to read. Whether that is indeed the case, a closer look at the titles might reveal more about you.
Bare walls and just the basics
You are a private person who keeps your things stashed away in your wardrobes so that you are always ready for a surprise visit. You could be a neat freak who cannot even bear to risk leaving blu tac marks on your wall. Or you could be a boring person who has no interest in anything.
Bright, unconventional colour schemes
You are an energetic action-seeker who loves trying new things. Probably an artsy person with a good sense of design too if the colours and deco match seamlessly.
Whether the above portray your personality accurately, your guests, and even detectives, would believe that your room tells them a lot more about you. Before you invite people to your house, don’t forget to move your stuff around to prevent any unwanted perceptions!
