I wasn't exactly sure what I was looking for. So I just went ahead, looked around, and took pictures. I also asked the person to take pictures of her room so that I'd know what part of her room she likes best.
I had no intention whatsoever of snooping at the rooms of my guys friends for a few simple reasons. 1. Most of them are filthy. 2. I wouldn't want you guys to see their porn collections. 3. It's hella awkward roaming around their rooms knowing what horrors those walls have seen.
So I asked a female friend if i can snoop around her room while we were, along with a bunch of other friends, were hanging out in their house. The first thing I noticed was a mini notebook collection. It, of course, is not nearly as wide as some people, ahem ahem. But it was nice to see something familiar. I guess girls like notebooks.
Seeing this collection made me think that she's organized. Notebooks are for writing stuff and a person who writes stuff must be organized to some extent.
There was also a desk where she works. There were tons of pens, a picture of her and her significant other, a picture of Jose Maria Escriva, pictures of other family members, and some notes. She also makes good use of post-its to remind her of tasks she needs to do like illegally download episodes of her favorite TV series.
She had a large collection of books which she said is her favorite part of the room. The books were arranged neatly which automatically reminded me of the Robocop Factor.
The sheets were rather interesting. Most of the girls I know want their sheets, blankets, and pillow cases to match. My friend on the other hand didn't. I think this was a hint of her agreeableness. She wasn't OC about the sheets as long as the sheets are comfortable.
The arrangement of her clothes weren't as OC as her books. The clothes were packed neatly but her cabinet looks clean.
There were a lot of identity claims in her room. A bunch of John Mayer CDs gave her away. The pictures in her desk were all directed at her when she was working so it's obvious that all those pictures inspire her to work harder.She shares a room with her tita but the pictures here are all her parts of the room. Sharing a room, I think, is a sign of her agreeableness.
If I was to give her a birthday present, it would be kick-ass John Mayer concert tickets. I don't think I can giver her anything that she'd like more than those tickets.
I think her most dominant personality trait is her agreeableness or the Mr. Rogers Factor. Because I know her quite well, I guess it is easy to say that this is indeed true. She is one of the most lovely people I know and I think her room communicates that very well.
