My fun-filled weekend

As anyone who has ever lived with me could probably tell you, about every six months I feel this urge to move furniture around.  I don't really know why, but I do.  Anyways, this weekend I was overcome with the need to move all of my stuff around.  Maybe it has something to do with the fact that about every six months my room gets so cluttered/disorganized that I just have to start all over again!  Either that, or I'm just trying to find my chi.  I wonder if I lived in a place for long enough I would eventually find the perfect arrangement, and never need to move my stuff again!

Anyways, after moving my bed to a new location, I decided that the five windows in my room looked rather forlorn.  I got lucky in my room selection, because I have the most windows of anybody in my house!  However, I probably have the noisiest room, being that my room is on the corner of the house right next to the front door, and 500 south.  So I set out on an adventure to IKEA on Saturday night.  If you can believe it, that was my first trip to IKEA, and I was way too excited to be there!  As someone said today, IKEA is like "a Disneyland of furniture!"  (Thank you dental guys!)  I found some awesome blue curtains for like six bucks, and I even found a new comforter!  So in keeping with my tropical oriented theme, I have created a beach-house style living space that any surf bum would be proud of!  














Oh yes, this is my bed with my awesome 8-foot surfer poster and new curtains.  I just thought I would share this with everyone!  I also have discovered how to add music.  Hope you enjoy, and please ignore some of them, as I have added them just for kicks!  Well that's about it for today, especially since I am once again procrastinating my homework.

5 windows in one room... wow that is a lot. We only have 5 in our whole apartment.
I know how you feel about needing to rearrange furniture every 6 months. I'm the same way. It is just nice to have a change, and try to find a better arrangement.

Yeah, I enjoy it. I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. So I finally figured out how to find your blog, and your pictures are so cute! I love being able to catch up with you.
