I have a keen interest in colorful things. That's why for my bedroom, I'd like to have some colorful pictures. Uh, because I think that when I look at colorful things, uh, they make me feel full of energy. But on the other hand, I'm thinking maybe, uh, getting energized in your bedroom isn't good because you need to be relaxed. So now I'm thinking maybe I need to have some pictures with maybe neutral colors.
