1980s teenagers and their bedroom walls

Safe haven, idolation, desire, rebellion, escapism––are all defining narratives that describes the 1980s teenager's bedroom walls––this is the place they go to dream.
Every morning, even before I open my eyes, I know I am in my bedroom and my bed. But if I go to sleep after lunch in the room where I work, sometimes I wake up with a feeling of childish amazement — why am I myself? What astonishes me, just as it astonishes a child when he becomes aware of his own identity, is the fact of finding myself here, and at this moment, deep in this life and not in any other. What stroke of chance has brought this about?– Simone de Beauvoir (January 9, 1908–April 14, 1986), All Said and Done
