    So we had this thread exist about a year ago, and for a while there it was pretty popular, but then like most Random Chat threads it kinda died and then subsequently fell off the map never to be seen again.

    Therefore, without breaking the cardinal rule of 'necroposting' I have decided to make an entirely new thread to host these pictures, in which we will refer to as "Your Room (Part 2)".

    Much like with the previous thread, the object of this thread is to give LPAers a virtual tour of the place you sleep in every night (ooh creepy) as well as providing a brief explanation of what they are seeing so this way they will not be confused in the event they are stupid. :D (What's that thing with four bedposts? Oh man I wonder!?!?!).

    It really is quite simple, and I don't think I should need to explain it to your folks any more than I have, so therefore without further ado, here's my room:

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/carved_in_black/room/100_3925.jpg

    This is the view looking into my room from my bedroom door. Here you can see my big bed, office chair (which is pimped out with an awesome massage pillow might I add), computer area, CD collection, and one of the newly installed shelves that were put up just two weeks ago to house some of my dvds and special collectables that I built up over the years but previously had no space for.

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/carved_in_black/room/100_3926.jpg

    The walls above my bed. I'll explain the purpose of the random Howdy Doody shit in a second.

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/carved_in_black/room/100_3927.jpg

    This is the shelf I go to in the morning to grab my wallet, work badge, cologne of choice and anything else I might need before going off to work. Also seen here are some of the odds and ends I've collected and purchased over the past 10-15 years. Little shoe is from my trip to North Carolina a few years back.

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/carved_in_black/room/100_3928.jpg

    My semi-filled shoe rack. Those who know me personally, will already be well aware of my obsession with shoes and I will not need to go any farther with this.

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/carved_in_black/room/100_3929.jpg

    My closet, which contains everything from my button up work shirts, band hoodies, vests, dress coats, and ties, to even my B&W marching band style jacket that I took pictures of me wearing a couple of months back.

    Closeup of the shelf above my computer area. Check out the sword sitting on top. Cool huh? I still plan to take pics of me with that soon, so stay tuned for that. As for the randomly placed bag of chocolate skittles. Well they are sitting there to permanently commemorate just how fucking shitty they taste. They deserve a place in my mini hall-of-fame as no words can ever express how much of a fuckup it was to ever create such a concoction. They seriously should've called them Limited Edition Shittles, as maybe that would've warned me against the nastiness that was about to enter my mouth. I still have nightmares from it. I'm telling you...it's cruel to do that to a man.

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/carved_in_black/room/100_3931.jpg

    Right, so about the Howdy Doody shit. It's rare, worth quite a bit of money and that's why I'm saving up on it. I see this stuff pop up at auctions all the time, and if I see it happens to be in good condition, I'll bid on it as part of my collection so I can sell this stuff for a pretty penny down the road when it really happens to boost up in value. It's my mini-investment for the future.

    (Also seen here: My computer DJ unit, my Linkin Park picture vinyl, Faint street team sampler, Black Parade special edition, and some random assorted SURU vinyl toys that I've received from Mr. Hahn/Noel of SURU over the past year).

    Hmm so there you have it. A brief little tour for those who haven't seen my room, and a nice little update for those who have. Enjoy...and let's get some pictures posted folks!

    I love Derek and Nicks room. =D

    @Derek: I love the organization of your room.. It's small, but looks really homey. You have an awesome collection of stuff too.

    @Nick: Your room is really interesting, it has a lot of character. I love your guitars too!

    I'll post some pics up of mine once I clean it up a bit, haha.

    Oh come on, I've basically ran an LP fansite for over half a decade and have spent hundreds upon thousands of dollars to support the band. I think that is a painfully obvious fact sir. :lol:

    And Anya, thanks!

    Lol thanks, and HEY I barely Cleaned mine up and I still took pictures.

    If you clean it perfectly then take pictures, that kind of defeats the Insight to how you live. :lol:

    Sounds kinda like what my parents did :). The reason I took pics of my room to show people is that my parents rearranged my room so much by surprise one day, that it looks nothing like it did only about a month ago. It's amazing.

    Those shelves, new posters and all they put up just in one day. They must've been tired by the end of it all.

    We moved in here about 6 weeks ago, so it doesn't really look all that nice yet. It's also why you don't get to see our bedroom, it has awful wallpaper so we gotta change that soon, plus our bed's all naked right now, I still have to put on clean bedsheets. :p

    Groovy orange
    My little heaven
    Couch + Max
    Tv + our guinea piggy Wolletje
    Computer. On the left wall we still need a closet for plates, cups etc.
    Lamp, book closet, football
    Entrance
    Our very funky toilet. We still need to change that wallpaper
    Happy bathroom
    The view

    I sleep on two torn cushions places on a small living room floor because there is no couch and I have no room. Therefore I'm pretty sure no one is interested in pictures of that.

    xD I'm sick of it now though, I want it cream and one wall a bright colour.

    My room has completely changed now, I have my computer in here where the bed was, a double bed rather than a single bed now. It's all moved around. I'll post pictures later~

    Marjeh! You have the sweet house there is. Whenever I am going to France I am staying. *Self invitation*. :p

    It looks very inviting. I love it. And that is a really cute picture of Maxime :)

    And all of you guys... how do you manage to keep the house so tidy? *Impressed*
    Sylar, Chris, Casey- you have lovely rooms.

    <3

    I don't have any new pictures since I am in Japan at the moment. I took these pictures for the 'How messy is your room? thread'


    :lol:

    It's clean, I promise!

    EDIT::

    Found old pictures. Of the time I was very into Linkin Park and before I gave the poster away to this girl who was more than happy to have it:
