A Real Room Re-do

You may recall last summer when I "re-did" my bedroom. I still had the same paint color, same furniture, etc, that I had when we first moved into this house when I was in middle school. However, my one request for moving back home after graduating college was that I could turn my bedroom into more of a grown-up bedroom. There are some things I couldn't part with (such as my blue tube lights), but basically it's completely different!

I love the paint color because it makes my room so much brighter and it feels a lot bigger. And I love all of my new furniture, but I really love the bookshelf. If you click the pictures you will find evidence of my extensive Sylvia Plath collection.

It's May!

Today is beautiful.

I have two weeks till graduation.

The sun is shining.

And all I have to do this week is...

write final exam papers. blech.

but I am also expecting a serious onset of allergies, like what happens every year during finals week, when the weather finally starts to get consistently beautiful.

HOWEVER, it is May, and I am almost done, and I will allow NOTHING to get me down, because soon enough I will be laying on a beach in the Bahamas with my best friend, without a care in the world.

Hooray!
