Okay so, many of us may have some really neat things in our room and I think we should share some of our nifty things.

User Image

I think Val is going to appreciate the Jewish posters a lot =]. There is a hat from Russia that my father brought back from me, black dolls that were handmade for me, a bow an arrow on the wall that was made by an Indian for me. You can barely see my Egyptian incense burner and some of my Latin books.

User Image

Kinda self explanatory but I REALLY love my Aztec man, samurai sword and my seemingly oriental vase, proto-geometric? Also, my panda is from a friend of mine, Yunsheng who comes to visit from Beijing every few years.

User Image
Colosseum bookends, and art work on my wall from South Africa. My aunt Farhannah and uncle Mohammed live in Cape Town.

User Image

You can't see my ivory artwork on my wall that my father brought my from India but you can see the table. My Pace flag that I bought in Italy <3. I have other stuff but I could be here forever saying where everything is from O.O.

Time for you guys to share!

I don't really do anything interesting to my room.

Boring I know. I like my lotus poster though. =]

I hand-stamped the morning glory vine 'round the window. Ah ha, the bookshelf is visible in the corner.

I really don't have anything unusual. xd

er, I don't know how to put pics up on gaia, it's just been that long since i've done anything on here. If someone would like to show me how to put pics up, i would gladly do so. xd
But i would say mostly in my room is a book shelf filled with different types of books, a very tiny statue of a hindu god of rememberance, and the corner with all my video games, tv, vcr stuff. oh and my bed, a typical twin size bed with another rollout bed underneath. that's about it.

Oh man, that sucks. I know how you feel, I just got a bookcase and I can't believe I didn't sooner.

I've totally been in that room. ninja
I don't actually have any pictures of my room, not that it's very 'worldy' anyways. Unless of course if you count Mickey Mouse as a foreign mascot... then my room is very worldy.
Mickey Mouse, and Bookshelves. And boxes to hold more books.
Go me.

I know what you mean. My bookcase is small and I wanted to exchange it for one of the tallers opnes we have, but my room is a bit too small for a towering bookcase. So some books are double-stacked on my bookcase and I keep books on my nightstand and floor.
I think everyone who has books can sympathize actually.

That's pretty much my room (minus the Mickey Mouse).
