Whether you have a super-organised, dustless, scrubbed and sanitised room to claim your own, or if the tangle of clothes strewn on the floor make it look like a tornado just passed–your crib says a lot about you. The walls of your room may beckon to you, or you may be repulsed by the very thought of being there. Your crib may be where you spend half your life in–sleeping, dancing, breathing…or it may be a place you enter to sleep and run out of in the morning. Whatever it is, how you treat it reflects on your own characteristics. But does a sanitised room mean a sanitised mind? There's much more to it than you think. Take this quiz to find out!

Mostly A's
You're motivated, and the notes pasted on your walls and the lines of trophies in your closet, reflect it. Your room, like most things, is a source of inspiration for you, something that serves to drive you forward. You spend your time in your crib listening to music, reading, learning and practicing your moves. Your room's usually not a mess, but even when it is, it's an organised mess. You know where to find your stuff, and your clothes are stacked up, folded and clean. 

Mostly B's
You're creative and your room is your laboratory–your hideout, where you sneak in and let your creativity out. You've got your books around you, your paint, your guitar, or whatever is your medium of expression. You surround yourself with posters, artwork, magazines, and precious little things that make you smile. Your need for creative expression is apparent in your walls, whether it's the collages or hand-painted designs, and even your unique décor which is often customised.

Mostly C's
You're laid back. Your favourite thing to do in your room is sleeping in, and when you're done, you usually don't make your bed. It's practical you say, so you don't have to spend time laying out the blankets at night. You don't really care about what your room looks like, it's more of a place to put in your stuff–you'd rather spend time hanging out outside your room. You're more at home out there in the big wide world.
