I work as a Customer Laison Complaints Case Officer at a major insurance company, where I have worked for 3 years. I left school when I was 17, as I had some very bad experiences at school and wanted to see what the real world had to offer.
I now live with my boyfriend of 3 years and spend my spare time reading, writing, socialising with friends or just watching some TV.
Times are still hard and I'm trying to cope with various health problems on a daily basis but I'm working my way through things and really want to stop it from getting me down.
I dream of some day going to America and watching a real baseball game (we don't have that at all in the UK) and perhaps finding a job I find creatively fulfilling. Until then, I'm happy trying to be me and making the best of what I have.

The problem with cleaning (especially cleaning a bedroom) is that it's VERY dull to do. So make it fun. I always used to go with the idea previously mentioned, of playing some music to clean up to. There is actually a CD that has been specifically put together for housework called "Housework Songs" and it's full of tunes that you can bop to while cleaning!
I also used to use cleaning as an opportunity to practise my bend and snap! You ever seen the film Legally Blonde? It may seem a little silly at first but when you're bending down to pick up half the clothes you left on your bedroom floor last week, it makes it a little more interesting!
If you don't feel like going the whole hog in one go, or if you want to try to maintain a clean room, try making sure that every time you enter and leave the room, you take at least 5 things that shouldn't be there out or put 5 things that should be there back in.
After all this, create a little schedule for yourself so that you allocate one specific day to mundane tasks like dusting, polishing and vacuming. If you can keep the mess away a little, you will find this takes only a few minutes.
Lastly, you need to find motivation to keep your room tidy. This is ALWAYS the hardest thing. For me, the motivation came from what I wanted my room to be. I looked in an Interior Decoration magazine and I wanted my room to look JUST like one of the pictures because it looked so beautiful and serene. So I cleared everything out of my room, redecorated it and then put the essentials back in. Afterwards, it looked so great that I couldn't BEAR to let it get messy! So if you think that might help, give it a shot.
