I have moved from my dorm to an apartment! \o/ And because I'm a cheapskate, I moved everything myself (nearly everything-- my roommate helped lug an extra luggage bag for one trip, and I took a cab to move my desk and my mini-fridge) so I've been moving since May 10.

Well, not really. I moved stuff around for a few days, and today I got the last of my stuff from the dorm and now I can rightly say that I have ~officially~ moved.

And my apartment is made of so much ~WIN~!


Exhibit A. The View



Exhibit B. Ta-dah!~



Exhibit C. Desk = $100. Chair = $8. Hooks = $7.99. Evy's Littlest Nook = Priceless.



Exhibit D. Have you met Phil? Phil is my speaker. (Not to be confused with Phil, my boss. :|)



Exhibit E. Behold my bookcase. And my fridge, and currently nearly empty makeshift pantry. THEY LOOK SO NEAT. And yes, nearly all these books I bought here. :\



Exhibit F. Don't tell me that's not the hottest bed ever, because it is the hottest bed ever.



Exhibit G. We also have the cutest shower curtain ever.



Exhibit H. This shower curtain is so cute it makes me want to wear pigtails, a skirt, knee-high socks, and speak in Japanese. Hai, kawaii desu! ^_~



Exhibit I. And just because: behold, my ~television~.


I would show you my kitchen but that's even more boring than this. :| But yes. Suffice to say, I am very very pleased.

You have an awesome view! *__* I've always wanted to live in a high-rise (for the view and the balcony), but I'm wary of elevators. XD;; And your shower curtains rock. ^__^)b

We haven't got a balcony here, but OMG why do you get wary of elevators? (The freight elevators here are CRAZY; they open BEFORE the cars ALIGN with the floor, so you can see it going up. :|)

Ugh, ugh, I hate it when elevators do that because it makes me dizzy and freaked out. Elevators makes my inner claustrophobic flail -- I'm okay with them, but I really don't like relying on them everyday. XD;;

Awwww, I see, I see. I'm like. It just never occurred to me to get freaked out. :|

Congratulations on the new pad! And the shower curtain is far too adorable for words.

Ooh, me likey! Where did you get the shelving units and the wall hooks for your cords? I'm going to need stuff like that when I move in to my own place :)

PS And that shower curtain is TEH KEWT ♥

Shelving units are from Target! Here!

I use similar shelving units for my closet as well, but only because there was only 1 stock of this type at the store. They only make 6 cubes, technically, but you can stretch them to 10 and a half, which is what I did. The hooks are by 3M and there are lots of them wherever you go here. I've bought them at Target and at CVS, at least. Walmart will have them, I think.

Where is Brandeis, btw? You must show pictures too, when you get there! :D

Thank you for the tips! I swear I'm going to raid Target and Wal-Mart :D

And Brandeis is in Waltham, just outside Boston :) I will definitely post pics when I'm there and settled!

The only problem you might run into is that Walmart IS SO FAR AWAY FROM MOST CITY CENTERS. It lowers costs for them, is why, but if you are car-less then it will be a problem. Target, meanwhile, is right now just down the street from me. I love it so.

Boston! Forget the pics-- when can I visit? ;)

AWESOME. That shower curtain is especially great.

I want to see the kitchen :/ because! I am creepy like that. :)

It just rocks that way. :D

Haha, that's not creepy, no. I actually didn't take photos because my roomies were around and they'd have seen me in the kitchen and I didn't want to explain why I was being creepy. :|
