Here's another Question for those who may be

Fri Dec 21, 2007, 7:36 AM
Hey there, me again. Just another question concerning my project if anyone has any answers that's grand! i keep meaning to put new work up but getting sidetracked by dissertations and parties and work and so on. hopefully soon!

anyways, back to the theme of 'Home' again, do any of you have any idiosyncrasies/routines that you go through at home that you wouldn't when in other peoples homes/presence? (this can really be anything, just basic daily routine, to constantly checking things are switched on/off in an OCD kinda way, something that i do alot...)

Thanks, any replies are welcome, thanks again in advance, i hope to maybe produce a book that looks at 'routine' when it comes to the idea of home.

I usually get alone in my house at night, so I just turn all lights on (even in rooms I'm not in) so the house looks more "alive". I don't do that when other people are around mainly because they don't like unuseful lights to be on.

I usually start dancing to every sound I hear when I'm alone. And every hour I dance my way to the kitchen to check if there's food I like. Usually there isn't.

fair enough, thanks :)

i do like to think that home is "living", i'm curious to find out what makes it alive, i'm kinda thinking it's people, memories, routines and so on, i'm just trying to get some more "solid" things to make books about i guess!

lol, so generally a whole lotta dancing? i guess that makes sense, i suppose some people would think it was weird if you just went into their houses and started dancing.

i wake up, shower, put the grill & kettle on while i dry myself & get dressed, then on a skool day eat my breakfast while doing my hair & make-up, or on a non-skool day eat my breakfast while online then do my hair & make-up. but i only do it if i'm by myself. my routine gets mixed up at other houses or when theres people there.

Ooo well I have a very strict makeup routine, which sounds so girly and obvious but its also a weird thing that i cant concentrate on or do as well/properly if i'm at someone elses house.

I can only do it properly if i'm in my own house, and if i'm not, i feel sloppy and out of my routine for the rest of the day. It ends up making me feel like i've got out on the wrong side of bed.

Im kind of the same with everything else really, hah! To be honest if i'm not in my own house, thats my routine out the window. From getting up, showered and dressed to doing my hair and makeup i wont feel completely properly ready by the end of it all unless i'm in my own house.

If any of that makes sense :p

Heres a round up of my routine...

Alarm goes off. Snooze it 2/3 times. Gather clothes, go shower/brush teeth. Get dressed. Skip breakfast, i never seem to have time. Do makeup (theres a whole routine in that!), do hair. Straighten hair, depends. Tidy up a bit if i can be bothered, off to schoool.

Haha not very exciting but i hope that helps a bit!

I hope this make you smile, and you might stay that way for a while.

sometimes i just lie on the floor at my house in any old room >>
i don't really know why, but i do.

and i always turn my radio on as soon as i wake up. then i leave it on for the whole day. its in my room, and i can barely hear it downstairs or in the kitchen and stuff, but it's always on...

i dunno, makes me feel less alone~

I always sleep with my stuffed bunny up against my face, and my teddy under my arm. They stay there the whole night. If I turn over, they come with me. It's something I've done since I was a little girl.
