While i'm sitting here in my apartment doing absolutely nothing but blowing my nose and drinking hot chocolate, I thought I mind as well show you guys what my apartment is looking like these days. I've made a lot of changes, looked at used furniture adds, ordered online, and picked up random things along the way. If you remember, my apartment is basically the size of an oversized shoebox, but, if you position everything the right way (believe me, I tried a ton of different ways), you can make it seem fairly roomy. The bathroom and kitchen are roughly the same, but the living area itself doesn't look at all like it did.

| If you remember my first post, this is my heartless, furnitureless room I was given |

| Found this french style cafe table on facebook! |
 |
| Bought the futon and pictures online, the curtain from homeplus, the table from the school's storage facility, and the flags from their respective countries. |
 |
| This desk has been a life saver. No more sitting on the floor for me! |

| The cat's name is Bubba. Mom shipped him here a couple of weeks ago. He's a huge hit with the students. Thanks mom! |

Besides plenty of different cookware, this is the only addition to the kitchen. It provides me with much needed counter space.
If you noticed, I did get rid of my bed. The futon is pretty comfortable, so at night I simply fold that down. Saves on a ton of space. When friends come over, I have a double sized sleeping mat that is actually really comfy. Overall, it hasn't cost too much to furnish the place. Furniture here isn't too pricey, especially when you only have a few square feet to worry about. Despite the size, when I get off work, I can finally call this place "home" in its own little way. |
