Organization
Schedules and study guides are a small part of making a dorm into a home. By utilizing these organizational tools, the dorm space is organized and makes studying not so stressful. Creative writings like these truly bring a sense of comfort to the dorm. By thinking and creating using everyday writing, the dorm becomes organized. As Heidi Estrem puts it, “understanding and identifying how writing is in itself an act of thinking can help people more intentionally recognize and engage with writing” (19). Even something like organization tools hung in a dorm are writing, and thus, a creative activity that utilizes everyday writing to create a home.
