acreepyperson, if I had a cute little Japanese girl with an axe in my room, I think I'd hate mine, too. And yes, I know what movie she's from.
For years now my room has been very brown. Bunk beds, floorboards, area rug, one bureau, and the walls are an off-white with a touch of brown. I don't mind as much when there are leaves on the tree right outside the windows, but in the winter it sure doesn't help. I'm actually fond of saying, "My room is so brown, it's no wonder my life is shit."
I've been thinking of redoing it with sort of a late 18th-early 19th century color scheme, but I haven't decided on the colors yet. That, and one plaster wall really needs to be redone. And I hate plaster with a passion. The dust that gets everywhere, the smell.... And I especially hated knocking out the wet plaster on the ceiling in the kitchen to fix the plumbing last August.
I would kill the man who invented plaster if he wasn't already dead.
