Sweet Jesus, whenever I clean my room, I tend to go way too deeply into it and until I'm finished, the room will most likely look even worse than before. I'm serious, the only thing that's clean right now is my bed, and even that has a bit of junk on it.

Right now I'm trying to get all the dirt out from under my bed and out of the wheels of my desk chair. The latter's a pain in the ass, so might as well use the screwdriver and WD-40 trick dad taught me when I had to do the same thing three months ago. All of this due to all the hair I fucking shed constantly. At least this side of the room's free from bugs.

Yes, bugs. I can't for the life of me figure out what they are, but I'm sure they're beetle larvae, and the other side of my room tends to get INFESTED with them. Well, not really infested, but there sure are a fucking lot when I go through that area in hopes of killing them all off but obviously failing.

So yeah, what do you guys like or dislike about cleaning?

I'm not as messy as I used to be when I was younger.

I guess the worst part of cleaning now is the cat liter.

I hate it when I'm done cleaning, because it means from that point onward, the room is only going to get messier ; I get a great sense of accomplishment when it's done, and then I realize that despite my best efforts I'll be doing the same thing again in two weeks to two months time.

The one thing I hate after cleaning is that I'm totally unable to find anything afterward.

My messiness is my strategy for organization!

My problem is what's underneath the bed. Soooooo much dust collects under there and I'm not sure why.

Actually, my room itself is a dust magnet. Not like I'm particularly messy either.

Dust is incredibly annoying, especially when you have many bookshelves full of books, discs and whatnot ;
The slightest zephyr causes a light cascade of tiny particles that somehow find their way into my nose and mouth even when I'm on the other side of the room.

It makes cleaning a joy when time is given for dust to breed ;

Under the bed used to be so bad, but for the past few years, I've managed to it it pretty clean under there.

I'm pretty good. Unless I'm ultra busy I like to maintain my work and living spaces to stay quite tidy.

It drives me mental otherwise.

I enjoy cleaning. I just put it off forever. Right now my room is a mess.

I find cleaning fun, but not as fun as procrastinating. I'm incredibly lazy, so my apartment gets messy sometimes.

And I'm having the bug infestation problem too, right in the middle of winter.

I generally wait and clean once a year.

I get lots of piles of debris, but no food/trash. Just junk, like old machines.

It's an enigma
----------------------------------------------------
If I get bored I clean.

And by clean I mean pick up things so that they're SOMEWHAT organized. To the point that I can see the floor again

Doing all of that dirt cleaning... nope, not in a dorm room.

I usually just clean a bit of dust off every week. I don't have to worry much about the rest of the room since I don't usually have stuff laying around everywhere.

Though if my bed is messy from sleeping, I'm probably never going to fix it during the day unless I'm really bored.

I usually clean whenever it is a problem. Most importantly my room:

For example I never trash my empty beer cans. I just let them stack up in my room up until it's an obstacle to leave the room; that is when I decide to clean it.

Now in front of ladies (Look at me trying to act like I am pimp or something) my room is always clean.

I clean my room once a month, and I try to clean my bathroom once a week.

Dirtiness of my room merely consists of dust, and papers scattered ala over the desk and floor. I cannot stand clothes on the floor nor beverage containers piling up—I get these out every time I leave the room. I clean the bedsheets once a week.

I've been told I'm good at cleaning, but I absolutely hate doing it. Sadly, it needs to get done rather often.

There's nothing I hate cleaning more than the litter box. And it doesn't help when both of the cats have tendencies that make it more annoying to wash.
