Apartment Living
So I’m moving back to school in less than a month (woot!) and I’ll be in my first apartment along with my roommate @Amralove. I’m really excited about this because for one, it’s not an 11×14′ cinder block box like my dorm room last year. I’ll have a tiny kitchen (with a dishwasher!!), our own bathroom, the bedroom, and a nice sized living room. All of it furnished. Though I’m getting some of my own furniture as well, which is where I’m coming into some shopping trouble.

o I’ve been going to WalMart lately and have been passing this “Off to College” section they’ve rolled out that has bedding, bathroom stuff, mirrors, lamps, kitchen equipment, and some furniture. And I’ve been walking past these storage ottoman things… and yeah. Now I have two of them. In purple. With micro-suede. Mmmm. So nice. But I love them! A fifteen inch cube you can put stuff in! It’s brilliant! And they’re comfy! So yeah… that’s what I got.
Then after I brought these home, my mom remembered she had some gift cards that Bed Bath & Beyond gave her when she was buying wedding presents for a relative’s wedding. She said I can have them! So I’ve been stuck in the Bed Bath & Beyond website for two days, browsing through all the stuff they have. It’s awesome! Problem is, I don’t know how much is on the gift cards yet. Probably not very much, so we’ll see what I can actually get. (Instead of that nice $130 bookshelf, settle with $20 in throw pillows or something.)
Well, I’m still thrilled to be moving back to school! As predicted, I’m getting tired of being stuck in the ‘rent’s house. College, here I come!!! Again… !!!
EDIT: I just found out, you can totally play tic-tac-toe on the top by “drawing” in the suede! Woohoo!
