Everyone in my family asks me, What are you gonna do with all of your stuff? At that point I lower my head and think to myself They don't get the point of living in a tiny house.
It's true, I have a lot of stuff in my room, I have a lot of art supplies, I have stuff outside in a shed waiting for my future, I HAVE TONS OF "CRAP"! When I look around my parents' house in which I dwell I think of all the space that is pointless: the hallway, the huge living room, the dining room, the kitchen floor, the bathroom tub, the huge counter, my room and every unknown item in every mysterious box. Next I think about the things I would "need": a bed, a stove, an oven, a cozy chair, a small refrigerator/freezer, a toilet, a sink, a closet, a book shelf, a table, solar powered hook up, running water, and of course a place to make and fire pottery.
It's really fun dreaming up this house and what it could mean for my future or even my now! I have two new friends, Stella and Jane, and they have been building the inside of their tiny house! I only got to help them a few times and then I think I annoyed them with my imustknoweverythingbecauseiwatchmuchtoomuchHGTV so that's a big bummer...I could vent about it but you're no psychiatrist. Short story short, I haven't been invited back. Anyways! Ugh, I was skeptical at first about their tiny space of dwelling but one day my friend Shimarah (I hope I spelt that correctly -I tend to just call her shimmy) posted Tiny: A story about living small...and if it's not that, sorry, Netflix Tiny House and it should pop up on top.
There's something spooky about open space. To this day I still don't like going to sleep to an empty house. Any(evilcat)thing could be lurking around the corner! Even the two bedroom apartment I stayed in one semester off campus was pushing the spookometer!
To wrap this first declaration of my dream to build a tiny house up I will say this: I already started drawing plans the moment the film turned off. And it should cost hopefully less than half of the amount of loans I've had to pay back...and still paying back. Boo you whorish loans!

I wanna build a tiny house. I'm gonna build a tiny house.
