Can you describe the place where you live? Please describe the room you live in
Briefly, my humble house locates in a small and quite street, so coming home
to me is like all the craziness happened outside is left behind. Just beside my
house stands a big old tree. I have my own room with walls painted violet, which
is kinda a peaceful color. The air outside is fresh. I usually open the window to
enjoy the wind and sunshine, which will help cool down my room without an air
conditioner. Since I spend most of my time staying at home, my room means
the whole world to me. It’s like a friend who is always there to share ups and
downs with me. So yeah, I would always miss my house, my room whenever
I’m away.
