KonMari: Don't Judge My Room
Here are some before and after photos of my room.But before you look at them, promise me you won't judge hehe.
Assalamualaikum and hi guys!
Have you heard about KonMari method? It's a method of organising things from clothes, to books, kitchen utensils and tools, miscellaneous, etc. The most important thing is to keep things that spark joy only. The KonMari was founded by Marie Kondo. I'm a HUGE fan of Tidying Up with Marie Kondo series.
If you know me well, you'd know how much I love organising and tidying stuff. Nah-uh, not OCD, because I do all these willingly, and in fact, actually I'd feel a bit stressful if my things are not organised. Organising makes life easier, trust me. You organise your things, you know where you put them, you place them back after using it and you'll never have to search for them since you already know where they are. And a plus point is, your room will always look neat!

But, I've never really had a chance to tidy up my things when I was in medical school. I was rarely at home and things just piled up more and more especially after every transition phase in medical school; Bukit Jalil to Seremban and Seremban to Kluang. Besides, my younger sister and brother put their things in this room as well, so just imagine how unorganised, untidy, and really semak the room was.
We even called this room 'Bilik Aib' or in English is The Disgrace Room haha.
At times when we did not know where to put our stuff, we'd dump them in this room with the hope that one day we'll clean it up and tidy it clean. That 'one day' finally came after 5 years haha. Since I finished medical school, ibu reminded me almost every day to clean up this room, but I never really had time as I had to settle up some important errands. Then one day, my sister and I decided that we can't let this happen anymore, so we spent the whole day cleaning up this room. And guess what. We managed to clean up everything in a day, and it made me wonder, why all this while I'd been postponing it haha.

Here's the result!
 |
| Files are organised according to the content |
 |
| Things that did not spark joy were donated/ thrown away |
 |
| I decided to not let go of books that do not spark joy since we have extra space here |
 |
| We reused pretty cups and boxes to place stationaries |
 |
| These 3 cupboards contain my stuff |
Tidying up this room made me realised that most of the things in that room are mine haha. I don't know why do I have so many things.
I did it guys! Hehe.
Anyway, how do you usually tidy up your room?
Do you follow any method?
Do share with me :)
Honestly, I like what you did to this room. It's so adorable!
ReplyDeleteHehe thank you! :)
Deleteseronok bila tengok kemas kan teringin nak buat konmari gak entah bila nak start hahah
ReplyDeleteNanti ada masa try la. Rasa lega and lapang bilik haha
Deleteit looks neat even you have lots of stuff..
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
Deletei tidy up my rooms once a week or every two weeks depends on my schedule. your room looks great!
ReplyDeleteThat's nice! I rarely use this room, but I will definitely clean it up more frequently. Thank you anyway hehe
Deletewslm..
ReplyDeletewahh look clean. cuma mayb klo space tu besa lagi boletmbh rak or tmpt utk letak brg lagi spy lebih tsusun kan..hmm xpe2 aslkan nampk kemas ok la tu
Haah itulah. Nak tambah rak tak muat dahh. Hehe yup asalkan kemas and tersusun.
DeleteSalam kenal sis...cantik dan cerja biliknya..
ReplyDeleteSalam kenal juga. Terima kasih! Hehe
DeleteWaa...so tidy sudah. Untung la siapa jadi your room-mate, mesti kemas juga. I am forever in the 'decluttering' stage bcos so many things have sentimental value! Got to learn to 'let it go...' :D
ReplyDeleteTapi betul tu, tak senang nak let go barang sesuka hati. Saya pun cam take time jugak lah haha. Itu pun ada benda tak guna pun still simpan lagi sebab sayanggg.
DeleteKonMari ni hebat sngt minimalis dia. Nk ikut,, tapi berat na nak declutter semua brg taguna.
ReplyDeleteHaha kannn? Sama laaaa. Rasa bazir buang barang tak guna tapi still elok. Saya ada mindset 'mana lah tahu nak pakai akan datang' haha.
Deletesuka tengok..kemas je susunan kat bilik tu :-)
ReplyDeleteHehe terima kasih :)
DeleteBuang jek mana yg x guna baru nampak kemas 😬
ReplyDeleteHaha itu lah rasa nak buanggg tapi sayang tsk tsk susah betul ada perasaan macam ni. Haritu sehari je hati kental buang benda tak nak guna haha
DeleteSuka tengok konmari style ni. sangat kemas dan pratikal
ReplyDeleteYup betul tu!
DeleteYour room looks so cheerful and colorful! Me likey.
ReplyDeleteI think I heard about KonMari method but never got the chance to practice it. Tapi alhamdulillah bilik tak bersepah sebab I always tidy up my room after I woke up and before I go to bed sebab rasa tak senang duduk, even ada sebiji cawan dalam sinki, mesti terus basuh hehe but I don't have OCD though sebab kadang tu rasa malas betul nak kemas hahaha
That's a really good habit! Takde lah tunggu bertimbun banyak baru nak kemas hehe. I think as long as you always tidy and clean up your room, tak payah KonMari pun dah boleh kemas cantik hehe
Deletesukanya tengok bila dah tersusun ka
ReplyDeleteHehehe kan kan :)
Deletei believe each house has this kinda room.. where we dump most of our things.
ReplyDeleteglad that u finally kemas cantik2.. puas hati kan ?
Memang puas hati terus rasa tak nak usik apa apa haha
