My One and Only Domain

My Room

Abhinav Kini – Grade 10.2

As you enter my room you will find a blue door to my bathroom. After that, you will notice a blue wardrobe with a stylish design coated on it. In it, lie all my clothes, books and other belongings. Then on the other side of my room, a sleek black plasma television resides on the wall which reflects anything which touches the LCD screen. It is a pleasure watching my favorite television show or watching a Sunday night movie as it is so clear on the big screen of my television. Opposite that, is my bed which is again blue and on the left of my bed are blue curtains which cover the entrance to my balcony in which you get a view of Poway. You can say my room’s main theme is blue! I have chosen blue since I think it looks good and it’s my favorite color.
