Pictures are so fun!! They captivate life’s happiest moments. Time is frozen and you’re forever young (or old, depending on when you took the picture! :p). For those with “brain damage” AKA forgetfulness, a snapshot definitely aids in triggering those neurotransmitters. However, pictures can also help recall moments that have haunted you, or ones you would rather not remember. Like the time you got your finger stuck in a hose, those fashionable “bowl” haircuts, or when you decided for some insane reason to look like a freak for chinese school pictures (click if you dare).
Anyway, this blog is dedicated to Nate (whom by the way has given permission for the posting of this entry). Two days ago, we accomplished something that we thought was utterly impossible. Since…forever, Nate’s room was used to look like this:
And after FIVE hours of hard work, whining, fits of frustration, choking in dust, discovering non-living objects that move, and lots of perseverance, "Sarahnate" tore the place apart. Behold, the miracle:
So congrats to something we thought was equivalent to slaying a dragon. I wish this sends out a message to all our messy room keepers out there…that there is hope! Haha, no excuses now! Oh, btw, the loose change found around your house is actually worth something. With over 950 pennies, and hundreds of other coins, Nate is now $46 richer!!!

my room feels very empty without the layer of clothes and papers on the floor. I kind of actually miss it ;)
So today i left a pair of pants on the floor and it looked so lonely. So I threw some shorts and my tshirt on the ground too.
Just kidding :) Its still zestfully clean.

by the way, sarah, that CHinese school picture was gold! =) I wish I looked that cool!
Wow! What's more impressive is, the guy actually gave u permission to clean up his room, together! I got to show the "before, after" pictures to someone. After over twelve years I'm still not allow to throw out a thing in his room...
Hey Sarah! HAHAHAHAHA...THUMBS UP TO YOU! (^_^). You are slowly improving Nate's old habits. Although he may show disregard for it, I'm thinking that he secretly is really glad you are making him clean up ...for the sake of health of the person sleepin in that room, and the peopel who visit it. (haha) He will appreciate you for that. Praying for you both as you leave on your trips! keep us posted!
Stop changing nate.... I don't even know who he is anymore.... sniff sniff. You've made him girly now...
What has the world come to! The injustice! The insanity!
