------- Additional comments from [email protected] Tue Mar 3 01:49:41 +0000 2009 ------- Misty Loiler Prof. Lisa Yanover English 120 24. Feb. 2009 The Window to Our Lives Looking in from the street, a window on the second story, facing to the west is glowing with lights and shadows. While climbing the stairs, people are talking and laughing. The loft on the second story appears to scream from the inside out that this is a house that entertains a lot. That theres a lot of people that come and go. One would assume that this is a room which has a lot of company on a weekly basis. A very passionate, inviting environment. As you climb up the stairs the first thing you notice is the furniture. There is a couch that stretches along the south side of the wall. The color of this couch is the pigment of blood. There are three footstools the same color right in front of the couch for lounging purposes. Also, the far wall behind the television set is a dark red. It doesn't exactly match the couch, but they go together well and don't clash. Right under the double paned-window there is a chair with a leopard throw blanket over it. Its a chair that has only one stand in the middle and feels somewhat unstable when first sat in. In the corner hanging from the ceiling are five fung shui box lights with red bulbs in them. The room gives off an entertaining glow. With all this seating there is room for several people. The ceiling fan also has a light with gives off a radiating glow. There is a picture of James Dean with a quote: "Dream as if you'll live forever, Live as if you'll die today." There is also an oil paintings on the east wall on your way to the hallway. The oil painting on the far left wall is a very earthy tone, having a burgundy background and bamboo sticks along with two chinese symbols to the left of the bamboo. The other portrait is not a painting. Its a picture of mummy wrapped in its golden tomb. It is framed and portrayed in all its beauty. On the north side of the wall on the far right there is a dark mahogany mini bar with both doors spread open to reveal the contents and provide easy access. Inside there is a couple wine glasses hanging upside down from a glass holder, some hard liquor such as Jack Daniel's whisky and Patron tequila. A couple steins with German logos and flags on them actually brought in from Hiedelberg, Germany are also necessary when entertaining. In the modern mini fridge to your right, there are several random bottles of wine, such as different types of Chardonnay and Merlot, which are in the bottom rack so they can stay room temperature. On that same wall on the far left by the window there hangs a MGD fluorescent light. Its one of those signs you would see hanging inside a bar window, glowing that pale fluorescent color, calling for you to come get a beer. A green Guinness clock, with the white logo of the trademark clover, hangs above the mini bar. Along with three chinese oil paintings on the left, right and bottom of the clock. The paintings have a black background and in red there is the chinese symbol for Love, Peace, and Happiness. In the middle of all the festivities on the north wall, there lies a high definition television hung in the dead center of the room right above the entertainment center. In the entertainment center is a DVD player stacked on top of our comcast cable box. Also there is several magazines such as People, Gossip, OK and Us. All left there to pile up month after month during subscriptions. One would think they are there for the main purposes of entertainment. Also there are remote controls to everything such as the television, the surround sound, and all the game systems. Surround sound speakers are right beside the television and also behind the couch to maximize the sound effects when watching movies. There are also two game-systems: A Playstation 3(PS3), and a Wii. Both of these systems are used on a frequent basis. In the far corner of the room sits the rock-band game set for the PS3. The drums are the most visible but the guitars, the bass and the microphone are all there. Also the Wii has a balance board that came with the Wii fit, an exercise game. All the bulk items are pushed to the side, to prevent any hazards. Next to the entertainment center to the left is an old vintage fifties radio made out of light oak. Which in the fifties and sixties was the main entertainment. It still works but is very old and not used as often as most of the other forms of entertainment. With all of the proper material things to entertain a social gathering, you would think that is what one would do on frequent basis. On the contrary, I live with my boyfriend and his family and this is more or less a family room. The only people over are select friends, no more than two or three at a time. Most of the time it is his friends just playing video games on the playstation or his grandmother and her friends playing yoga on the Wii fit. Everyone does use the Wii game-system but at different times due to the different schedules. The mini bar is mainly for show and even though it has many uses, we don't dispense out of it that often. Movies are mostly rare in the loft to, as is watching television. All in all, the loft is a great, comfertable envoirnment that has all the materials to be a social gathering we just dont use everything to its full advantage. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
