Dramatic

Dramatic
Sensational or forceful in appearance; thrilling in effect.

My parents left this morning. They were here for a week and we all had a merry time. Quite helpful they were, hanging pictures, buying new accessories, taking out the trash, etc. My mom actually made us some decorative side curtains to "dramatize" the living room. Wow! My funny orange chair and the $1.00 painting of Piccadilly Circus are now a special part of the new dramatic living room scenario. We set everything up in the evening and when I woke up to it in the morning, it was as though I had entered a bright new apartment altogether. Funny how a bit of color can alter the atmosphere.

The drama quickly spread from living room decorations to weeknight activities. I must admit that the drama has mostly been committed by my ever so dramatic roommate. I guess its not fair to go into the girly details, but it is worth you heckling her for them! T'was an enjoyable week in that regard. Lesson learned: no matter how much we think we have the future figured out - plans will change - guaranteed!
