I have been pretty obsessed with TikTok recently. 

Initially, I was telling myself that I will be that person who will not succumb to having a TikTok account.

Heck, was I wrong.

In the first place, I created an account because I wanted to follow accounts who specifically films fridge, and laundry refills and organisation videos. Slowly, I found myself to be addicted to other videos which obviously has nothing to do with reorganising but nonetheless, fun to watch as well.

The negative side is that my 'FYP' is filled with local accounts showing off their shopee haul and making their study/work table more aesthetic. Why is it "negative" you ask? It is simply because I started spending more money than usual on stuffs that I probably do not need but I still buy them anyway because they looked cute in pictures and I have already started envisioning how it will look like on my work table and room.

Well not everything is negative. One thing positive is that it gave me motivation to finally clean out my desk. To be honest, I am not an organised person per se. I would clean my desk every now and then, but it would just end up being super messy again. My English teacher back in high school who also had messy desk in the teacher's room used to say, if you have a messy desk, it means you are a successful person. I guess those words were just stuck in my mind like a glue because ever since then, I ALWAYS have a messy desk. Even when I went abroad to study (both at Cardiff and Nottingham), my desk and room was always messy. When I came back to Malaysia, my desk somehow became even messier (maybe it's just me....). 

After watching multiple videos on TikTok, I had this sudden motivation to deep clean my desk so on Friday, 11 June 2021 which happened to be a *FlexFriday at work. With nothing to do in mind, and work was not an option, I decided to clean my desk. Which was what I did for the next 24 hours.

Lo and behold, my desk; before and after. Actually, it's still work in progress because I am waiting for the shelf rack to arrive for me to complete my project.


I took only half of the table because the other side is still a bit of a mess.
