The time has come to officially start thinking about going back to school. Sigh.

I have enjoyed this summer so much, it has definitely been my best summer yet. I don't know if I am ready to get back to school, I'm quite a bit hesitant. So, to ease my way into the back-to-school season I took a trip to the mall! (Are you surprised?)

I redecorated my dorm room and got some great new back-to-school outfits. I am very proud of my dorm-decorating skills this time around, I think I really found my niche.

After completing some more offers to earn ZCard currency I went back through some of the past few months' Daily Keepsakes and boy did I find some cool stuff! I found great room assets that I didn't even know existed and I found really cute clothes that I would have missed otheriwse.

So for my room I started my paint job with a beautiful purple that is great for fall! It's color #660066, and the light yellow color I used for the floor and back wall in my room is color #FFFFCC.I always like two colors for the walls, especially when using a dark color like this purple, the yellow brightens up the room.

I think after painting, decorating and then finally taking a step back and critiquing my work- my two favorite items in the room are my rug (daily keepsake from 2/16/2009) and the sun dial clock (daily keepsake from 7/13/2009). I think these two items really give my room pizzazz and great personality!

Now that I have my room all cleaned and decorated I think I am all set for the back-to-school madness to begin. So go explore the past Daily Keepsakes on your own and find some great hidden treasures!
