My Bedroom, My Paradise

The room I want to transform is my bedroom. My bedroom is one of the important places where I have my quality time. My quality time includes reading, writing, doing school work, office work and most importantly taking power naps and taking rest.

Firstly, I want to colour the four walls and change the lighting. I want two different colours because I want the colours to colour my life. I will select “Light Green” colour first because it is the colour of nature and it represents growth and renewal. Second colour would be “Light Blue” because it is the colour of ocean and sky and it symbolizes wisdom and health. I do believe the colour has power to change the mood and energy level. Although, my bedroom is not too big hopefully the colours can change the shape and size but then to add another dimension to room and space I want to play with the lighting. I want to try the “layered lighting” because it has the multiple lights where I can create my own desired effect and atmosphere. Afterall, it’s all about balancing of lights and shade that can make the room vibrant.

Secondly, I want to revamp my workspace. I know exactly where to set up the workspace and it will be beside my small window where early morning, I hear the birds singing, I can see the blue sky and green high mountains in the day and gaze to the stars to wonder at night. To make it look trendy, I will match office desk, office chair, drawers and shelves. It should fit in perfectly in my favourite spot of the room where I can work happily. As, I will be spending more hours doing office/school work, I will be sitting a lot. If I’m also going to start my new writing career, I definitely need to have good comfortable sitting chair. I want the right ergonomic office chair that fits my body and my back, it has to have lumber back support with swivelling, hight adjustment and tilting functions.

Lastly but not the least the most important thing, I’m working full time and studying part time. In my free time I like to keep myself engaged in different activities that fits my interest and hobbies. I’m very fortunate that school’s career department also selected me to be school ambassador for year 21/22 and currently I’m also a student member of “Rotaract” student club. I do have different responsibilities and in the end of the day I’m tired. After a long day’s work, I just want to go to my own little paradise. My own personal paradise where I can just be myself and lie down in my bed. I know there is no such thing as miracle bed but I know for sure a good designed mattress can be miracle. It can help you to give the right support for the whole body and hopefully also make a positive difference. After lying down in my bed, recalling the micro moments of the day, acknowledging the positive and negative things and just to express my gratitude for everything and slowly I can go to my power sleep. Yes, my paradise will not be completed without a good bed with a really good mattress. I must have my good night sleep to gain back my energy and recharging overnight it can prepare me for the tasks and challenges for tomorrow.
