On either side of a semi-colon must exist independent clauses; that is, each must be a full sentence.
"Organized for my needs" does not work, MaxDepth.

In such a situation, you should just use a (double) hyphen--emdash, as MaxDepth has just informed me.

Hehe.

I stand corrected. I forgot "it's."


"This is my space, dad; it's organized for my needs.

And the proper usage of a break in a sentence is not a hyphen, but an "emdash."

Beat me to it. The em dash is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE form of punctuation.

You have a favourite form of punctuation, but I bet you don't have a girlfriend...

This is my space, dad; it's organized to my tastes, not your's.

"not yours." No apostrophe.

Form the embdash by doing like..."Hello--Bob " (type one word, 2 dashes, another word, then hit spacebar, and Word XP will 'autocorrect' it to an embdash.

I'm gonna have to go with the emdash on this one Bob.
