I'm thinking we better thank our deities* pretty fucking extensively due to the fact that I'm not waiting a month to post again. *I thought I'd cover all the bases
I know it's a pretty generic title and I could be talking about almost anything in the world since you need money to do anything that qualifies as awesome these days...but I will be discussing something that I'm sure you won't see coming. It's something I've been passionate about for a while, but didn't/don't know how to pursue professionally (or at all really). In any case, I really like to make things look beautiful and I love to rearrange rooms as often as I can.
Have you figured it out yet?
If not, I'll just tell you so I stop rambling. I'm talking about interior design.
Have you ever gotten so bored with the way something was organized that you just said "fuck it" and completely changed it all? That is part of what interior design is. The whole premise of it is essentially organizing something (a single room or an entire house) to show life and personality. For the rich and famous, this is done by hiring a professional interior designer to do it for them. I'm guessing the process for that is having a meeting to decide what the homeowner wants to portray. Then this person GETS PAID to go out and shop with the other people's money to decorate that house.
...Let me just make sure you understand... that this would be the EASIEST job in the world (for nearly every woman on Earth)!
Especially for myself.
For the non-rich and famous, the most simple way to achieve something that could maybe in a million years be perceived as professional would be to move things around or re-purpose things. Changing one thing, even slightly, can make a whole room look different. Another good idea is to color coordinate as much as possible. Nothing is worse than seeing a beige couch, a purple couch, and red curtains in a tan room with brown carpet. Gross!
Another part of interior design is 'accessories' and things of the sort. Throw pillows, paintings, knick knacks, etc. Those are the parts of design that add the homey touches and make a house feel lived in.
When I still lived with my parents, my favorite thing to do was rearrange my room and paint it. The last time it was painted, it was aqua with purple splatter on two walls. The bedspread was predominantly aqua with green and purple stripes.
As you can see, I was really into design from quite a young age.
And now I'm going to school for a fucking business degree.
Such is life.
C'est la vie.
Post again when I remember!
