Room Analysis

Looking at my dorm, Mack Hall, from the outside very well mirrors my dorm from the inside; it appeals to the eyes but not the touch. The look from the outside as well as the inside is very elegant. My room would be a good room to put on the cover of a recruiting email talking about Ohio States because it looks good from a distance. Inside my room there is hard wood flooring, painted base boards, crown molding around the ceiling,beds neatly made, and a space rug in the middle of the room. All of these things appeal to the eyes as well as the three chairs circled around the tv, implying a community where people interact. These things however are first impressions and give way when you realize that the room has an era that it overwhelmingly uninhabited.
As you spend time in the room one begins to realize that hardwood floor was not built for comfort. If someone was wishing to lay down on the floor while they play cards or something else they would leave with a cramped back and sore backside.
Those baseboards and crown molding are nice to look at but when it comes to cleaning day they are a pain to get behind the cracks that have developed from years of stress from the buildings structure weighing down on them.
The beds that were so neatly made look good if your walking by; But if you are stopping in for a while they do not look good to lay on for fear of wrinkling the covers.
The space rug that is so nicely swept adds color to the bland floor; However when you are about to bite into those freshly baked cookies mailed from home you feel bad about getting crumbs on the fresh looking rug.
